A certain substance, initially present at 0.950 M, decomposes by first-order kinetics with a rate constant of 1.25 × 10-2 mol L-1s-1. Calculate the time (in seconds) required for the system to reach a concentration of 0.726M.

Method 1:

Integrated rate equation for first-order reaction:
ln[A] = -kt + ln[A]ₒ
ln(0.726) = -(1.25 × 10⁻²)t + ln(0.950)
t = [ln(0.950) - ln(0.726)] / (1.25 × 10⁻²) s
Time taken, t = 21.5 s

====
Method 2:

Half-life = ln(2)/k = ln(2)/(1.25 × 10⁻²) s = 55.45 s

Let n be the number of half-life.
0.726 = 0.950 × (1/2)ⁿ
0.5ⁿ = 0.726/0.950
log(0.5ⁿ) = log(0.726/0.950)
n log(0.5) = log(0.726/0.950)
n = log(0.726/0.950) / log(0.5)
n = 0.3880

Time taken = (55.45 s) × (0.3880) = 21.5 s
