    For a reaction, \[X(g)\to Y(g)+Z(g)\]the half life period is 10 min. In What period of time would the concentration of X be reduced to 10% of original concentration        [DCE 2004]

    A)                 20 min  

    B)                 33 min

    C)                 15 min  

    D)                 25 min

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

               \[{{x}_{(g)}}\to {{y}_{(g)}}+{{z}_{(g)}}\]                    The reaction is a first order reaction hence,                    \[K=\frac{0.693}{{{t}_{1/2}}}=\frac{2.303}{t}\log \frac{a}{a-x}\] \[=\frac{0.693}{10\ \min }\]                     \[=\frac{2.303}{t}\log \frac{a}{a/10}\]\[=\frac{0.693}{10}=\frac{2.303}{t}\log 10\]                                 \[\therefore \ \ t=\frac{2.303\times 10}{.693}=33\min \].
