Answer: It will take 8.2 minutes until the concentration decreases to 0.055 M
Explanation:
The time after which 99.9% reactions gets completed is 40 minutes
Explanation:
Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:
where,
k = rate constant
t = age of sample
a = let initial amount of the reactant
a - x = amount left after decay process
a) for completion of half life:
Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.
b) Time taken for 0.085 M to decrease to 0.055 M
Thus it will take 8.2 minutes until the concentration decreases to 0.055 M
