Q.

An organic compound undergoes first order decomposition. The time taken for its  decomposition to 1/8 and 1/10 of its initial concentration are t1/8  and  t1/10  respectively.
What is the value of  [t1/8][t1/10]×10 ?  (log102=0.3)

Detailed Solution

For a first order process,  kt=ln[A]0[A]
Where  [A]0   = initial concentration 
[A]  = concentration of reactant remaining at time t.
kt1/8=ln[A]0[A]0/8=ln8  ……………. (1) 
 kt1/10=ln[A]0[A]0/10=ln10  ………… (2)
Therefore,  t1/8t1/10=ln8ln10=log8=3log2
 t1/8t1/10=3×0.3=0.9
 t1/8t1/10×10=0.9×10=9.0
