First order reaction,
Consider the first order reaction, |
|
|
|
Reaction rate,
|
|
|
Sepataring the variables and integrating,

|
First order combustion reactions! |

|
|
Note : |
concentration decreases exponentially with time (Refer Fig),
All unimolecular reactions obey first order kinetics!
All first order reactions need not to be unimolecular!!
