Question:medium
For a first-order reaction with rate constant k, the slope of the plot of log(reactant concentration) against time is:
For a first-order reaction with rate constant k, the slope of the plot of log(reactant concentration) against time is:
Show Hint
For first-order reactions, remember that the slope of the log(concentration) vs. time plot is always \(\frac{-k}{2.303}\).
