Explanation / Answer

a)

For a first order reaction, half life is independent of initial concentration.

Half life = 105 s

Order = 1

b)

For a first order reaction,

CA = CA0 exp(-k t)

Ln(CA0/CA) = k t

At t = t1/2 = 105 s, CA = CA0/2

Ln(CA0 / (CA0/2)) = k t1/2

Ln(2) = k * 105 s

k = 0.693 / 105 s-1

k = 0.0066 s-1
