Time Taken for X Percent Reaction to Complete Calculator

Calculate Reaction Time







Formula

The formula to calculate the Reaction Time is:

\[ t_{\text{reaction}} = \frac{\ln\left(\frac{C_0}{C_0 - x}\right)}{K_h} \]

Definition

The Reaction Time is the time taken to complete a reaction to a certain extent. The Initial Concentration is the abundance of a constituent divided by the total volume of a mixture before diffusion or reaction. The Amount Reacted in Time t represents the amount of reactant reacted to form the product in a first order reaction. The Rate Constant is the coefficient of proportionality relating the rate of a chemical reaction at a given temperature to the concentration of reactant or product.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ t_{\text{reaction}} = \frac{\ln\left(\frac{300}{300 - 0.1}\right)}{1 \times 10^{-6}} \approx 333.388901237796 \]

The Reaction Time is approximately 333.388901237796 Seconds.
