Explanation:
- The products formed are chromic chloride and cobalt.
Chromium + Cobaltous Chloride = Chromic Chloride + Cobalt
- Type of reaction is Single Displacement (Substitution) which is there is a displacement of one atom.
Reactants used in the reaction are -
- Chromium
- Cobaltous Chloride
Products formed in the reaction are -
- Chromic Chloride
- Cobalt
Hence, the chemical reaction is as follows -
→
For balancing the above chemical equation we need to add a coefficient of 2 in front of chromium and of 3 in front of cobalt(II)chloride on right-hand-side while of 2 in front of chromium chloride and of 3 in front of carbon monoxide on left-hand-side of the equation.
Hence, the balanced equation is -

In this reaction 50% of the compound decompose in 10.5 min thus, it is half life of the reaction and denoted by symbol .
(a) For first order reaction, rate constant and half life time are related to each other as follows:
Thus, rate constant of the reaction is .
(b) Rate equation for first order reaction is as follows:
now, 75% of the compound is decomposed, if initial concentration is 100 then concentration at time t
will be 100-75=25.
Putting the values,
On rearranging,
Thus, time required for 75% decomposition is 21 min.
