Derive an expression for the relation between half-life and rate constant for first-order reaction.

व्युत्पत्ति

उत्तर

The integrated rate law for the first-order reaction is

k = `2.303/t * log_10  [A]_0/[A]_t`

Where [A]0 is the initial concentration of reactant at t = 0. It falls to [A]t at time t after the start of the reaction.

The time required for [A]0 to become `[A]_0/2` is denoted as t1/2 or [A]t = `[A]_0/2` at t = t1/2

Putting this condition in the integrated rate law we write

k = `2.303/"t"_(1//2)  log_10  [A]_t/([A]_0/2)`

= `2.303/t_(1//2) log_10 2`

Substituting value of log102,

k = `2.303/t_(1//2) xx 0.3010`

∴ k = `0.693/t_(1//2)`

∴ `t_(1//2) = 0.693/k`

The half-life of a first-order reaction is independent of the initial reactant concentration.
