Answer : The time taken for the reaction is, 28 s.
Explanation :
Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by :
where,
k = rate constant = 0.0632
t = time taken for the process = ?
= initial amount or concentration of the reactant = 1.28 M
= amount or concentration left time 't' =
Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:
Therefore, the time taken for the reaction is, 28 s.
Prontosil is a compound produced by the coupled reaction of an aryldiazonium ion and an aromatic compound.
<h3>What are diazonium compounds?</h3>
These are organic compounds in which there are ionic interactions between the azo group (-N₂⁺) and an anion X⁻.
The general structure is RN₂⁺X⁻.
The azo group characterizes as being unstable and reactive. This property is because one of the N atoms has a positive charge.
-N⁺≡ N
<h3>What is the coupling reaction of aryldiazonium compounds?</h3>Aryldiazonium salt reactions can occur in two ways,
Coupling reactions are the aromatic electrophilic substitution, where the aryldiazonium ion acts as an electrophile for an activated aromatic compound to attack it.
The coupling reaction occurs at the azo group level.
