<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of the solution is 0.25 M
<u>Explanation:</u>
Let the volume of solution of 2.5 M NaCl be 10 mL
We are given:
Dilution ratio = 1 : 10
So, the solution prepared will have a volume of = 
To calculate the molarity of the diluted solution, we use the equation:
where,
are the molarity and volume of the concentrated NaCl solution
are the molarity and volume of diluted NaCl solution
We are given:
Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the concentration of the solution is 0.25 M
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.
I believe 22.4 liters. Hope this helps!
Apples turn brown when exposed to air because it undergoes aerial oxidation. Due to this, when the inside of the apple is exposed to the air containing oxygen and water, it turns brown. When apple is uncut, skin of the apple protects it from this process.
If the peeled apple in kept in the refrigerator, the oxidation reaction is greatly slowed down. This is because, rate of chemical reaction decreases with temperature. Hence, in refrigerator it would take several days for it to turn brown.
