The half-life of a reaction, t1/2, is the time required for one-half of a reactant to be consumed. It is the time during which the amount of reactant or its concentration decreases to one-half of its initial value. Determine the half-life for the reaction in Part B using the integrated rate law, given that the initial concentration is 1.85 mol⋅L−1 and the rate constant is 0.0016 mol⋅L−1⋅s−1 . Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

+ Half-life for First and Second Order Reactions 11 of 11 The half-life of a reaction, t1/2, is the time it takes for the reactant concentration A to decrease by half. For example, after one half-Me the concentration falls from the initial concentration (Alo to A\o/2, after a second half-life to Alo/4 after a third half-life to A./8, and so on. on Review Constants Periodic Table 11/25 For a second-order reaction, the half-life depends on the rate constant and the...
