After 94.995 seconds the concentration of A was reduced from 0.3688 M to 0.1464 M. What is the first order rate constant?

rate constant=changemoles/time/.3688

= .2288/(.3688(94.995))=

awesome thanks!

To determine the first-order rate constant, we can use the formula for first-order kinetics:

ln(A₀/Aₜ) = -kt

Where:
- A₀ is the initial concentration of A
- Aₜ is the concentration of A at time t
- k is the rate constant
- t is the time

In this case, A₀ is 0.3688 M and Aₜ is 0.1464 M. We also know that t is 94.995 seconds. Plugging these values into the formula, we have:

ln(0.3688/0.1464) = -k(94.995)

To isolate k, we can rearrange the equation:

k = -ln(0.3688/0.1464) / 94.995

Using a calculator, we can calculate the value of k.
