Hi. I was stuck with this one...here is the problem: Something is wrong with the data for a first order reaction: [A]0 = 0.100 M [A]t = 0.900 M t0 = 0 tt = 10s Which value is incorrect and why? What's a better value for the wrong one? |

Hi, it's been a while, hope you're doing OK! Look at the concentrations of reactant A at time 0 and time t. As the reaction proceeds, what should happen to the concentration?  Steve |

Thanks Steve. Yes I am happy to see that you are still around! You are more helpful than you know. Anyhow, I will definitely take another look and see what you think about my answer. Thanks again! |

I should double-check that there's not a typo in the concentration values. A is a reactant, correct, and not a product? And the initial concentration of A is given as 0.100 M and the concentration of A after time t has passed is now 0.900 M? Steve |
