First Order Reaction

The rate of the reaction is proportional to the first power.

                                

The chemical reaction occurs as follows:

R    \rightarrow        P

a                 0

a-x             x

We have,
rate[r]=K[R]^{1}

\frac{-d(a-x)}{dt}=K(a-x)

\frac{-dx}{dt}=K(a-x)  [differentiate rate law]

ln \:[\frac{a}{a-x}]=kt \:(Integrated\: rate\: law)

\mathrm{k\: =\: \frac{1}{t}\, ln\left [ \frac{a}{a-x} \right ]}

Unit of k=sec^{-1}

Other Forms of Rate Law

We know that the first-order equation is given as follows:

\mathrm{log_{10}A\: =\: log_{10}A_{o}\: -\: \frac{kt}{2.303}}

But there are other forms of rate law also available that we use for different purposes. These forms are mentioned below:

  • Use to solve numericals:

    \mathrm{log_{10}A\: =\: log_{10}A_{o}\: -\: \frac{kt}{2.303}}

    \mathrm{\Rightarrow log_{10}\left [ \frac{A_{o}}{A} \right]\: =\: \frac{kt}{2.303}}

    \mathrm{Thus, t\: =\: \frac{2.303}{k}\, log_{10}\left [ \frac{A_{o}}{A} \right]}
     
  • Exponential form:

    \mathrm{log_{e}A\: -\: log_{e}A_{o}\: -kt}
    \\\mathrm{\Rightarrow log\frac{A}{A_{o}}\: =\: -kt}\\\\\mathrm{\Rightarrow \frac{A}{A_{o}}\: =\: e^{-kt}}\\\\\mathrm{Thus,\: A\: =\: A_{o}e^{-kt}}
    This equation is also known as exponential form.
Half Life of First Order Reaction

The half-life of a reaction is the time in which the concentration of a reactant is reduced to one half of its initial concentration. It is represented as t1/2.
For a zero order reaction, rate constant is given as:
k=\frac{[\mathrm{R}]_{0}-[\mathrm{R}]}{t}
\text { At } t=t_{1 / 2}, \quad[\mathrm{R}]=\frac{1}{2}[\mathrm{R}]_{0}
The rate constant at t1/2 becomes:

k=\frac{[\mathrm{R}]_{0}-1 / 2[\mathrm{R}]_{0}}{t_{1 / 2}}

t_{1 / 2}=\frac{[\mathrm{R}]_{0}}{2 \mathrm{k}}
It is clear that t1/2 for a zero order reaction is directly proportional to the initial concentration of the reactants and inversely proportional to the rate constant.
For the first order reaction,

k=\frac{2.303}{t} \log \frac{[\mathrm{R}]_{0}}{[\mathrm{R}]}

\text { at } t_{1 / 2} \quad[\mathrm{R}]=\frac{[\mathrm{R}]_{0}}{2}
So, the above equation becomes

k=\frac{2.303}{t_{1 / 2}} \log \frac{[\mathrm{R}]_{0}}{[\mathrm{R}]_{0} / 2}

\text { or } \quad t_{1 / 2}=\frac{2.303}{k} \log 2

t_{1 / 2}=\frac{0.693}{k}
