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 ![[A_{0} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BA_%7B0%7D%20%5D)
is 100 then concentration at time t ![[A_{t} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BA_%7Bt%7D%20%5D)
will be 100-75=25.
Putting the values,
On rearranging,
Thus, time required for 75% decomposition is 21 min.
Geology is the study of the Earth, the materials of which it is made, the structure of those materials, and the processes acting upon them.
Let's go over the given information. We have the volume, temperature and pressure. From the ideal gas equation, that's 4 out of 5 knowns. So, we actually don't need Pvap of water anymore. Assuming ideal gas, the solution is as follows:
PV=nRT
Solving for n,
n = PV/RT = (753 torr)(1 atm/760 torr)(195 mL)(1 L/1000 mL)/(0.0821 L·atm/mol·K)(25+273 K)
n = 7.897×10⁻³ mol H₂
The molar mass of H₂ is 2 g/mol.
Mass of H₂ = 7.897×10⁻³ mol * 2 g/mol = <em>0.016 g H₂</em>
Because they’re both made up of two substances that are not chemically combined
