JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 3. Chemical kinetics

\(A \rightarrow B\) The above reaction is of zero order. Half life of this reaction is \(50\,min\). The time taken for the concentration of \(A\) to reduce to one-fourth of its initial value is \(...........\min\)(Nearest integer)

  1. A \(74\)
  2. B \(75\)
  3. C \(72\)
  4. D \(73\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(75\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Assume reaction starts with \(1\) mole \(A\) \(\left( t _{1 / 2}=\frac{ a }{2 k }, K =\frac{1}{2 \times 50}\right.\) For \(75 \%\) completion \(a -\frac{ a }{4}= kt\) \(t =\frac{3}{4} \frac{ a }{ k }=\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{100}{ a }=75\)
