STANDARD Chemistry First Order Reactions MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12

For a first order reaction, the time required for completion of 90% reaction is 'x' times the half-life of the reaction. The value of 'x' is: (Given: ln 10 = 2.303 and log 2 = 0.3010)

A

1.12

B

2.43

C

3.32

D

33.31

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

For a first order reaction, t₉₀% = (2.303/k) log(100/10). Using the relation t₁/₂ = 0.693/k, we find x = t₉₀%/t₁/₂ = 3.32.
