Find the percentage of unreacted reactant for zero order reaction in 90 second having rate constant \(1 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{dm}^{-3} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\).

  1. A \(5 \%\)
  2. B \(10 \%\)
  3. C \(15 \%\)
  4. D \(20 \%\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(10 \%\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The rate constant of zero order reaction is given by equation
\(\mathrm{k}=\frac{[\mathrm{A}]_0-[\mathrm{A}]_{\mathrm{t}}}{\mathrm{t}}\)
\(\operatorname{Let}[\mathrm{A}]_0=100 \%\)
\(\begin{array}{ll}
\therefore & 1 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{dm}^{-3} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}=\frac{100-[\mathrm{A}]_{\mathrm{t}}}{90} \\
\therefore & {[\mathrm{~A}]_{\mathrm{t}}=100-90=10 \%}
\end{array}\)
