Two reactions start with and both have a half-life of (the first is zero order, the second is first order, ). Select the correct statements.

  1. ABoth have at .
  2. BAt the first order reaction has .
  3. CAt the zero order reaction has the higher concentration (0.750 M against 0.707 M).
  4. DThe initial rate of the first order reaction (0.0693 ) exceeds that of the zero order reaction (0.0500 ).

Answer: A, C, D

Zero order: and . First order: and . At 5 min: 0.750 M against 0.707 M. At 20 min the first order value is 0.250 M, not 0.125 M. The initial rates are and .
