    A First order reaction is half completed in 45 minutes. How long does it need 99.9% of the reaction to be completed [AIIMS 2001]

    A)                 5 hours

    B)                 7.5 hours

    C)                 10 hours              

    D)                 20 hours

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

               \[k=\frac{0.693}{45}{{\min }^{-1}}=\frac{2.303}{{{t}_{99.9%}}}\log \frac{a}{a-0.999a}\] or                                 \[{{t}_{99.9%}}=\frac{2.303\times 45}{0.693}\log {{10}^{3}}=448\,\,\min \approx 7.5\,\,hrs\]
