Question

The generic reaction 2 A → products follows zero-order kinetics with a rate constant of 0.00628 M/s. What is the half-life of substance A if its original concentration is 2.23 M?

Be sure to enter a unit with the answer.

Expert Solution

Step 1

Given-

Reaction 2 A → products

Order of reaction = 0

Rate constant = 0.00628 M/s.

Original concentration of A = 2.23 M

To find-

Half life

Formula-

Equation for zero-order reaction

t_1/2 = $\frac{[A_{0}]}{2 K}$

were,

[A₀] = initial concentration of reactant.

K = rate cosntat.
