Which of the following options correctly represents the relationship between $t_{7/8}$ and $t_{1/2}$ where $t_{7/8}$ represents the time required for the concentration to become $1/8$ of the original for a reaction of order $n$?

  • A
    $t_{7/8} = (2^{n-1} - 1) \ t_{1/2}$
  • B
    $t_{7/8} = t_{1/2} \ [2^{n-1} - 1]$
  • C
    $t_{7/8} = t_{1/2} \ [2^{n-1} + 1]$
  • D
    $t_{7/8} = t_{1/2} \ [2^{3(n-1)} - 1] / [2^{n-1} - 1]$

Which of the following is true?

For a particular reaction,the variation of the rate constant with temperature is given by $\ln k_t = \ln k_0 + \left( \frac{\ln (2.5)}{10} \right) \times t$ $(t \geqslant 0 \, ^{\circ}C)$. Here,$k_0$ is the rate constant at $0 \, ^{\circ}C$ and $k_t$ is the rate constant at $t \, ^{\circ}C$. The temperature coefficient of the reaction,assuming that the rate constant increases by the same factor for every $10 \, ^{\circ}C$ rise in temperature,is:
