Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A zero-order reaction starts with a concentration of 4.0 M and has a rate constant of 0.2 M/s. How long will it take to decrease to 2.0 M?
💡 Hint: Use the integrated form to find the time.
If a zero-order reaction's rate constant is 1.0 M/s, what is the effect on the half-life if the initial concentration is doubled?
💡 Hint: Think about how the initial concentration affects the half-life formula.
