Question

For any generic first-order chemical reaction, which of the following temporal stoichiometric relationships is/are mathematically derived and unconditionally correct?

Answer: A,B,C

💡 Solution & Explanation

A is correct ($1/4$ left $= 2$ half-lives). B is correct ($1/8$ left $= 3$ half-lives). C is correct ($\approx 10$ half-lives gives $1/1024$ left, which is $\approx 99.9\%$ complete). D is structurally false because a true first-order reaction asymptotically approaches 100% completion at infinite time, never finite time.
