The answer to the question: choose the correct statement.  a) when ethane reacts with fluorine gas the product is less stable.b) addition reactions of unsaturated hydrocarbons and halogens requires a high activation energy.  c)the double covalent bond within unsaturated hydrocarbons requires a lot of energy to break.  d)the double covalent bond within unsaturated hydrocarbons can be broken easily.is: a) when ethane reacts with fluorine gas the product is less stable.

Reaction involved in present system is :   c12h22o11 + h2o → 2 c6h12o6the reaction system is obeying following rate law:   rate = k[c12h22o11]thus, it is a first order reaction.now, for 1st order reactionrate constant (k) =  given: initial conc. = 3.0 g, final conc. = 2.7 g, t = 2.5 h∴rate constant (k) =  ∴ k = 0.04215 h-1now, for 1st order reaction, half life = 0.693/k = 0.693/0.04215 = 16.4 hthus correct answer is option b
