A first order reaction is found to have a rate constant \(k = 5.5 \times 10^{-14}\ s^{-1}\).
Find the half-life of the reaction.

  1. A \(t_{1/2} = 0.693\ s\)
  2. B \(t_{1/2} = 5.5 \times 10^{13}\ s\)
  3. C \(t_{1/2} = 2.303 \times 10^{13}\ s\)
  4. D \(t_{1/2} = 1.26 \times 10^{13}\ s\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(t_{1/2} = 1.26 \times 10^{13}\ s\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{k}\) \(t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{5.5 \times 10^{-14}\ s^{-1}}\) \(t_{1/2} = 1.26 \times 10^{13}\ s\)
