QJEEM22Ch4121: JEE Main 2022 Chemistry - Class 12 JEEM22Ch4121 Solution: At 30 ∘ C , the half life for the decomposition of AB 2 is 200…

At 30∘C, the half life for the decomposition of AB2 is 200 s and is independent of the initial concentration of AB2. The time required for 80% of the AB2 to decompose is

Given: log⁡2=0.30 log⁡3=0.48

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 200 s
  • B 323 s
  • C 467 s
  • D 532 s

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Since, half-life is independent of the initial concentration of AB2. Hence, the reaction is "First Order".

k=2.303log⁡2t1/2

2.303log⁡2t1/2=2.303tlog⁡100(100−80)

2.303×0.3200=2.303tlog⁡5

t=467 s
