Question : 36
Total: 39
Time required to decompose SO2Cl2 to half of its initial amount is 60 minutes. If the decomposition is a first order reaction, calculate the rate constant of the reaction.
Solution:  
For a first order reaction, k=
0.693
t1∕2

=
0.693
60

=1.155×10−2 min−1
or, k=
0.693
60×60

=1.925×10−4 s−1
