$A$ reaction is $50\%$ complete in $2 \ hours$ and $75\%$ complete in $4 \ hours$. The order of reaction is

$t_{1/4}$ can be taken as the time taken for the concentration of a reactant to drop to $3/4$ of its initial value. If the rate constant for a first order reaction is $K$,the $t_{1/4}$ can be written as (in $/K$)

Rate of first order reaction $A \rightarrow \text{product}$ is $0.01 \ mol \ dm^{-3} \ s^{-1}$. Calculate the rate constant if the concentration of the reactant is $0.2 \ M$. (in $s^{-1}$)

$A \rightarrow P$ is a first order reaction. At $300 \ K$,this reaction was started with $[A] = 0.5 \ mol \ L^{-1}$. The rate constant of the reaction was $0.125 \ min^{-1}$. The same reaction was started separately with $[A] = 1 \ mol \ L^{-1}$ at $300 \ K$. The rate constant (in $min^{-1}$) now is:

For a first order reaction $A \to$ product,the rate of reaction at $[A] = 0.2 \, mol \, L^{-1}$ is $1.0 \times 10^{-2} \, mol \, L^{-1} \, min^{-1}$. The half-life period for the reaction is .......... $min$.
