Integrated Rate Equations starts at 11 and continues till grade 12. QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Integrated Rate Equations. How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take. When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.

A first-order reaction has a rate constant of 2.31 × 10-2 s-1. How long will it take for the concentration to drop to one-fourth of its initial value?
A reaction follows the rate law: rate = k[A]2. If the initial concentration of A is 0.5 mol/L and after 20 seconds it is 0.25 mol/L, calculate the rate constant k.
A reaction has a rate constant of 0.05 min-1. How long will it take for the concentration to fall to 1/8th of its original value in a first-order reaction?
A reaction has the rate law: rate = k[A]. If [A]0 = 0.6 mol/L and after 10 min [A] = 0.3 mol/L, what is the value of k?
A reaction is first-order in A. If the half-life is 20 min, what is the rate constant?
A reaction is first-order with respect to A. If the initial concentration is 0.4 mol/L, how much time will it take for the concentration to become 0.1 mol/L if k = 0.02 min-1?
A reaction is found to have a constant rate regardless of the concentration of reactant. What is the order of the reaction?
A reaction is second-order with respect to A. If [A]0 = 0.2 mol/L and k = 0.5 L mol-1 min-1, what is the half-life?
A reaction is zero-order in A. If [A]0 = 0.4 mol/L and k = 0.01 mol L-1 min-1, how long will it take for [A] to reach zero?
Describe how you would determine the order of a reaction using integrated rate equations and experimental data.
Explain why the half-life of a second-order reaction depends on the initial concentration.
Explain why the integrated rate law for a first-order reaction is useful in radioactive decay studies.
For a first-order reaction, if the initial concentration is 0.8 mol/L and after 30 minutes it is 0.2 mol/L, calculate the rate constant.
If a plot of ln[A] vs time gives a straight line with a negative slope, what does the slope represent?
If the plot of 1/[A] versus time is linear, what is the order of the reaction?
If the rate constant (k) for a first-order reaction is 0.693 min-1, what is its half-life?
If the rate constant for a zero-order reaction is 0.02 mol L-1 s-1 and the initial concentration is 0.5 mol/L, what is the half-life?
State the integrated rate law for a second-order reaction with respect to a single reactant.
The plot of ln[A] vs time for a first-order reaction has a slope of -0.03 min-1. What is the rate constant?
The rate constant for a first-order reaction is 0.346 min-1. What is the time required for the reactant concentration to decrease to 10% of its initial value?
