Detailed Solution

The decomposition reaction is H2O2H2O+12O2

The decreasing concentration from 0.5 M to 0.125 M implies two half-lives: 

0.5Mt1/2 0.25Mt1/2 0.125M 

Hence, 2t1/2=50min i.e.  t1/2=25min

The rate constant of the reaction is

k=0.693t1/2=0.69325min2.772×102min1

The rate expression is 1(1/2)dO2dt=kH2O2

When H2O2=0.05M, the rate of formation of O2 will be

 

dO2dt=122.772×102min10.05molL1=6.93×104mol L1min1.
