A reaction follows second-order kinetics with rate constant . If initial concentration , what is the half-life ?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. Reaction half-life is 50 seconds
- Step 1: Second-order half-life formula: . Step 2. Substitute: seconds. Answer: 50 seconds. Why not the others: seconds.
