How long (in seconds) would it take for the concentration of A to decrease from 0.820 M to 0.290 M?

1.016 seconds

Explanation:

Let's bring out the parameters we were given in the question;

Rate constant k  = 0.710 s^-1

Initial Concentration [A] = 0.820 M

Final concentration [A]o = 0.290 M

Time t = ?

Formular relating these parameters is given as;

ln[A] = ln[A]o − kt

Making t subject of interest, we have;

ln[A] - ln[A]o = -kt

kt = ln[A]o - ln[A]

t = (ln[A]o - ln[A]) / k

Substituting the values, we have;

t = ( ln(0.820) - ln(0.290) ) / 0.710

t = 0.7217 / 0.710

t = 1.016 seconds

weight of any object is given by

w = m*g

where m is mass of the object and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

for earth the value of g is 9.8 m/s^2 so

w=117.6 n m=12 g=?

117.6=12g => g=9.8 m/s^2

which is the force of gravity on earth.
