Expert Solution

Step 1

NOTE : The data looks to be somewhat incorrect. The value of concentration should be decreasing with time and not increasing. But in data there are points where the concentration is increasing.

Since we know that the relationship between the concentration of reactant i.e [A] and time for a first order process is given by

where [A] = final concentration of reactant

[A]₀ = initial concentration of reactant

t = time

K = Rate constant
