JEE Main2026Apr 4, Shift 1Chemistry

Consider the first order reaction $R \to P$ . The fraction of molecules decomposed in the given first order reaction can be expressed as

Solution

For a first order reaction with initial concentration $a$ and concentration of reactant remaining $(a - x)$ after time $t$ :

$a - x = a e^{- k_{1} t} .$

Fraction decomposed $= \frac{x}{a} = 1 - e^{- k_{1} t} .$
