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:
![k=\frac{2.303}{t_{1/2}}log\frac{[A_{0}]}{[A_{t}]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=k%3D%5Cfrac%7B2.303%7D%7Bt_%7B1%2F2%7D%7Dlog%5Cfrac%7B%5BA_%7B0%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BA_%7Bt%7D%5D%7D)
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.
Answer:
It works because of the significant principle of piezoelectricity
Explanation:
It has a negative charge emits energy when it moves to a lower energy orbit from an excited state and it has the same mass as a proton
Given that 1 micrometer or micron (um) is equivalent by definition to 1 x 10^-6 m, this means that 1 square micron (um^2) is equivalent to (1 x 10^-6)^2 m^2, or 1 x 10^-12 m^2.
(2.60 um^2) * (1 x 10^-12 m^2 / 1 um^2) = 2.60 x 10^-12 m^2
Therefore the layer of graphene covers an area of 2.60 x 10^-12 m^2.
