In three different experiments, the following results were obtained for the reaction
faust18 [17]
From the given observations,
You can see that as the concentration is doubled, half-life is halved.

That is,half-life is inversely proportional to concentration

As t( half-life) ~ 1/a^(n-1)

For this case n = 2,second order reaction.

R = k X a^n

Using the above formula you will get the rate and rate constant.

Very easy significant figures question!
Anon25 [30]

As you said, the answer is 150.

But in all the numbers, there's a comma with two zeros, and so you have to put them in your answer : 150,00

They are the significative numbers.

Hope it helps
