Expert Solution

Consider a given reaction, A Products

For above first order reaction, we have k = [2.303 / t ] log [A] 0 / [A] t

Where, t is a time of reaction, k is a rate constant, [A] 0 is a initial concentration of reactant at time t=0 s,  [A] t is a concentration of reactant at time t.

Here t =41.0 min, [A] 0 = 0.430 M and [A] t = 0.310 M .

k = ( 2.303 / 41.0 min ) log 0.430 / 0.310

k = 0.05617 min -1 log 0.430/0.310

k = 0.05617 min -1 ( 0.1421 )

k = 0.00798 min -1

Calculation of time required to reach the concentration to 0.126 Molar

We have, k = 0.00798 min -1, [A] 0 = 0.430 M and [A] t = 0.126 M .

we have k = [2.303 / t ] log [A] 0 / [A] t

0.00798 min -1 = ( 2.303 / t ) log 0.430 / 0.126

0.00798 min -1 = ( 2.303 / t ) 0.533

0.00798 min -1 = 1.228 / t

t = 1.228 / 0.00798 min -1

t = 153.8 min

ANSWER : 153 min
