Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12

The rate of a first-order reaction is 0.04 mol L⁻¹ s⁻¹ at 10 seconds and 0.03 mol L⁻¹ s⁻¹ at 20 seconds after initiation of the reaction. The half-life period of the reaction is ________.

A

44.1 s

B

54.1 s

C

24.1 s

D

34.1 s

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation
