The isomerization reaction,CH₃NC → CH₃CN,is first order and the rate constant is equal to 0.46 s^-1 at 600 K.What is the concentration of CH₃NC after 0.20 minutes if the initial concentration is 0.30 mol L^-1?

Question

The integrated rate law for a first-order reaction is:ln[A]t = -kt + ln[A]0where [A]t is the concentration of the reactant at time t, k is the rate constant, and [A]0 is the initial concentration of the reactant.Substituting the given values into the integrated rate law, we get:ln[CH3NC]t = -0.46 s-1 * 0.20 min * 60 s/min + ln(0.30 mol L-1)ln[CH3NC]t = -5.52 + ln(0.30 mol L-1)[CH3NC]t = 1.2 × 10-3 mol L-1
