Convection currents drive the movement of Earth's rigid tectonic plates in the planet's fluid molten mantle. In places where convection currents rise up towards the crust's surface, tectonic plates move away from each other in a process known as seafloor spreading

Convection currents describe the rising, spread, and sinking of gas, liquid, or molten material caused by the application of heat. ... Tremendous heat and pressure within the earth cause the hot magma to flow in convection currents. These currents cause the movement of the tectonic plates that make up the earth's crust.

The time required to reduce the concentration from 0.00757 M to 0.00180 M is equal to 1.52 × 10⁻⁴ s. The half-life period of the reaction is 9.98× 10⁻⁵s.

<h3>What is the rate of reaction?</h3>

The rate of reaction is described as the speed at which reactants are converted into products. A catalyst increases the rate of the reaction without going under any change in the chemical reaction.

Given the initial concentration of the reactant, C₀= 0.00757 M

The concentration of reactant after time t is C₁= 0.00180 M

The rate constant of the reaction, k = 37.9 M⁻¹s⁻¹

For the first-order reaction: C_t =C_0-kt

0.00180 = 0.00757 - (37.9) t

t =  1.52 × 10⁻⁴ s

The half-life period of the reaction: t_{\frac{1}{2} } =\frac{C_0}{2k}

t_{\frac{1}{2} } =\frac{0.00757}{2\times 37.9}

Half-life of the reaction = 9.98 × 10⁻⁵s
