The mass would be same because of the law of conservation which states that the mass of the reactants must equal to the mass of products
Yes they do if that was your question
The integrated rate law for a second-order reaction is given by:
![\frac{1}{[A]t} = \frac{1}{[A]0} + kt](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B%5BA%5Dt%7D%20%3D%20%20%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B%5BA%5D0%7D%20%2B%20kt%20)
where, [A]t= the concentration of A at time t,
[A]0= the concentration of A at time t=0
<span>k =</span> the rate constant for the reaction
<u>Given</u>: [A]0= 4 M, k = 0.0265 m–1min–1 and t = 180.0 min
Hence, ![\frac{1}{[A]t} = \frac{1}{4} + (0.0265 X 180)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B%5BA%5Dt%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%20%2B%20%280.0265%20X%20180%29%20)
<span> = 4.858</span>
<span><span><span>Therefore, [A]</span>t</span>= 0.2058 M.</span>

<span>Answer: C</span>oncentration of A, after 180 min, is 0.2058 M
