Interpretation: The concentration of
Concept Introduction:
The
The raise in molar concentration of product of a reaction per unit time or decrease in molarity of reactant per unit time is called rate of reaction and is expressed in units of
Integrated rate law for second order reactions:
Taking in the example of following reaction,
And the reaction follows second order rate law,
Then the relationship between the concentration of
The above expression is called as integrated rate for second order reactions.

- The half-life of tritium, 3H, is 12.26 years. Tritium is the radioactive isotope of hydrogen. (a) What is the rate constant for the radioactive decay of tritium, in y1 and s1? (b) What percentage of the original tritium is left after 61.3 years?arrow_forwardAt 573 K, gaseous NO2(g) decomposes, forming NO(g) and O2(g). If a vessel containing NO2(g) has an initial concentration of 1.9 102 mol/L, how long will it take for 75% of the NO2(g) to decompose? The decomposition of NO2(g) is second-order in the reactant and the rate constant for this reaction, at 573 K, is 1.1 L/mol s.arrow_forwardHydrogen iodide decomposes when heated, forming H2(g) and I2(g). The rate law for this reaction is [HI]/t = k[HI]2. At 443C, k = 30. L/mol min. If the initial HI(g) concentration is 1.5 102 mol/L, what concentration of HI(g) will remain after 10. minutes?arrow_forward
