Answer:
1) The reaction rate is double with respect to that reactant
Explanation:
Hello,
By considering the rate law:
If we double the reactant A concentration, by definition, the rate will be doubled as well since the power is one (order 1), this could be proved just by checking it out in the rate law.
Best regards.
The radioactive decay obeys first order kinetics
the rate law expression for radioactive decay is
Where
A0 = initial concentration
At = concentration after time "t"
t = time
k = rate constant
For first order reaction the relation between rate constant and half life is:
Let us calculate k
k = 0.693 / 72 = 0.009625 years⁻¹
Given
At = 0.25 A0
time = 144 years
So after 144 years the sample contains 25% parent isotope and 75% daughter isotopes**
Simply two half lives
