Question

A chemical reaction is thoroughly logged to be exactly 50% complete in strictly $2 \text{ hours}$ and exactly 75% complete in precisely $4 \text{ hours}$. Based entirely on these two fractional checkpoints, what is the integer kinetic order of this reaction?

Answer: B

💡 Solution & Explanation

The elapsed time required to destroy 75% of the initial mass ($t_{75\%}$) evaluates cleanly to precisely double the half-life ($t_{50\%}$), because $4 \text{ hours} = 2 \times 2 \text{ hours}$. This strict fractional $2\times$ time progression mapping is uniquely the mathematical signature of First Order kinetics.
