Q.1. A first order reaction has a rate constant of 0. 0051 min-1. If we begin with 0.10 M
concentration of the reactant, what concentration of reactant will remain in solution
after 3 hours?
Q2.

does not changes with temperature. [R = 8. 314JK-1mol-1
Q.6. A first order reaction takes 20 minutes for 25% decomposition. Calculate the time
when 75% of the reaction will be completed.

Q.8. For a first order reaction, show that time required for 99% completion is twice
the time required for the completion of 90% of reaction.
Q.9 (i) What is the order of reaction whose rate constant has the same units as the rate of
reaction?
(ii) The conversion of molecules X to Y follows the second order of kinetics. If
concentration of X is increased 3 times, how will it affect the rate of formation of Y.
(iii) A substance A decomposes in solution following the first order kinetics. Flask, I
contain 1 litre of 1 M solution of A and flask II contains 100 mL of 0.6 M solution of
A. After 8 hours the concentration of A in flask I becomes 0.25 M. What will be the
time for concentration of A in flask II to become 0.3 M?
(iv) For a first order reaction, calculate the ratio between the time taken to complete ¾
of the reaction and the time taken to complete half of the reaction.
