The conversation of cyclopropane to propene in the gas phase is a first order reaction with a rate constant of 6.7x10-⁴s-¹. a) if the initial concentration of cyclopropane was 0.25M , what is the concentration after 8.8min?b) how long (in min) will it take for the concentration of cyclopropane to decrease from 0.25M to 0.15M?

a)  The concentration after 8.8min is 0.17 M

b) Time taken for the concentration of cyclopropane to decrease from 0.25M to 0.15M is 687 seconds.

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

where,

k = rate constant

t = age of sample

a = let initial amount of the reactant

a - x = amount left after decay process  

a) concentration after 8.8 min:

b) for concentration to decrease from 0.25M to 0.15M
