The reaction $CH_3COCH_{3(g)} \to C_2H_{4(g)} + H_{2(g)} + CO_{(g)}$ is a first-order reaction. If the initial pressure is $0.40 \ atm$ and the total pressure after $10 \ min$ is $0.50 \ atm$,calculate the rate constant of the reaction. $(\log 3.5 = 0.5441)$

  • A
    $0.0133 \ min^{-1}$
  • B
    $0.4 \ s^{-1}$
  • C
    $10 \ s^{-1}$
  • D
    $0.6 \ min^{-1}$
