hello i am struggling with this one, can someone please help me? 2. The decomposition of SO₂Cl2 is a first-order reaction,$₂OCL2 (g) -----> SO₂ (g) + Cl₂ (g). The rate constant for the reaction is 2.8 x 10³ min-¹ at 600 K.If the initial concentration of SO₂Cl₂ is 1.24 x 10-3³ M, how long will it take for the concentration to drop to75% ? what is the expected half-life for this reaction?
