Answer:
so rate constant is 4.00 x 10^-4
Explanation:
Given data
first-order reactions
85% of a sample
changes to propene t = 79.0 min
to find out
rate constant
solution
we know that
first order reaction are
ln [A]/[A]0 = -kt
here [A]0 = 1 and (85%) = 0.85 has change to propene
so that [A] = 1 - 0.85 = 0.15.
that why
[A] / [A]0= 0.15 / 1
[A] / [A]0 = 0.15
here t = (79) × (60s/min) = 4740 s
so
k = - {ln[A]/[A]0} / t
k = -ln 0.15 / 4740
k = 4.00 x 10^-4
so rate constant is 4.00 x 10^-4
I googled the specific heat capacity for iron so it might be off to the value you might have used, bit it should be close.
