a). A first order reaction takes 40 minutes for 30 % decomposition. Calculate 1/2

b). The following results have been obtained during the kinetics of the reaction: 

2A + B → C + D

Experiment No.    [A] [B] Initial Rate of formation of D
1 0.1 M 0.1 M 6.0 × 10−3 M min−1
2 0.3 M 0.2 M 7.2× 10−2  M min−1
3 0.3 M 0.4 M 2.88 × 10−1 M min−1
4 0.4 M 0.1 M 2.4 × 10−2 M min −1

Determine the Rate law and the rate constant for the reaction:

(a) k = \(\frac{2.303}{t}\) log \(\frac{[A]_o}{[A]}\) 

Substituting the values, we have

k = \(\frac{2.303}{40}\) log \(\frac{100}{70}\) 

or k = \(\frac{2.303}{40}\) x 0.159 = 0.0089 min-1 

t1/2 \(\frac{0.693}{k}\) = \(\frac{0.693}{0.0089}\) = 77.86 minutes

(b) Suppose order w.r.t A is a and w.r.t B is b Rate = k [A]a [B]b 

Rate law expression is: Rate = k[A][B]2.

k can be calculated as in the first method.
