The decomposition of carbon disulfide to carbon monosulfide and sulfur is first order with k=2.8 ×10^-7 at 1000°C .What is the half-life of this reaction at 1000°C?

2.5×10⁶ s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Rate constant (K) = 2.8×10¯⁷ s¯¹

Half-life (t½) =?

The half-life of a first order reaction is given by:

Half-life (t½) = 0.693 / Rate constant (K)

t½ = 0.693 / K

With the above formula, we can obtain the half-life of the reaction as follow:

Rate constant (K) = 2.8×10¯⁷ s¯¹

Half-life (t½) =?

t½ = 0.693 / K

t½ = 0.693 / 2.8×10¯⁷

t½ = 2.5×10⁶ s

Therefore, the half-life of the reaction is 2.5×10⁶ s
