JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2021 - 27th July Evening Shift - No. 21)

For the first order reaction A $$\to$$ 2B, 1 mole of reactant A gives 0.2 moles of B after 100 minutes. The half life of the reaction is __________ min. (Round off to the nearest integer).

[Use : ln 2 = 0.69, ln 10 = 2.3]

Properties of logarithms : ln xy = y ln x;

$$\ln \left( {{x \over y}} \right) = \ln x - \ln y$$

(Round off to the nearest integer)
Answer
600to700

JEE Main 2021 (Online) 27th July Evening Shift Chemistry - Chemical Kinetics and Nuclear Chemistry Question 88 English Explanation
Now, $$t = {{{t_{1/2}}} \over {\ln 2}} \times {{[{A_0}]} \over {[{A_t}]}}$$

$$100 = {{{t_{1/2}}} \over {\ln 2}} \times \ln {1 \over {0.9}} \Rightarrow {t_{1/2}} = 690$$ min (taking ln 3 = 1.11)

Ans. 600 to 700
