Q.

 Two substances R and S decompose in solution independently, both following first order kinetics. The rate constant of R is twice of S. in an experiment, the solution initially contained 0.5 illimoles of R and 0.25 millimoles of S. The molarities of R and S will be equal just at the end of time equal to

Detailed Solution

Substance R                                                                      Substance S

            2k                                                                         k   rate constant

            t1/2                                                                         2t1/2 Half life period

            T = n × tt/2where n = number of half life period

            Amount of R left = 0.5(2)T/t1/2;

            Amount of S left = 0.25(2)T/2t1/2

            Equating both 0.50.25 = (2)T/t1/2(2)T/2t1/2 or 2 = (2)T/t1/2

             T = 2t1/2  , 2t1/2 is half life of S and twice the half  life of R
