Question
When sucrose, C12H22O11, is dissolved in H2O in the presence of an acid catalyst it reacts according to the equation C12H22O11 + H2O → 2 C6H12O6 with a rate law of Rate = k[C12H22O11]. If 3.00 g of sucrose decreases to 2.70 g in 2.50 hours in the presence of a certain concentration of an acid catalyst, what is the half-life for this reaction under these same conditions?
A.
12.5 hours
B.✓ Correct
16.4 hours
C.
23.7 hours
