For the decomposition of azomethane. CH3 N2CH3gCH3CH3g+N2 a first order reaction, the variation in partial pressure with time at 600 K is given as

The half life of the reaction is____×10-5 s

Solution

For first order reaction

k=1tlnP0P-kt=lnPP0lnPP0=-kt

Slope=-k=-3.465×104k=3.465×104

For a first order reaction,Half-life is related to rate constant as given below

t1/2=ln2k=0.6933.465×104=2×10-5seconds
