WHAT IS THE FIRST ORDER REACTION .EXPLAIN WITH FACTUAL REASONS
Hi Ankit,
In first order reactions, the rate of reaction is proportional to the first power of the concentration of the reactant R.
The plot of ln [R] against t is for a first order reaction is shown in the following figure.

Slope = −k
Intercept = ln [R]0
Slope = −k
Intercept = ln [R]0
Examples of first order reaction are:
· Hydrogenation of ethene
C2H4(g) + H2(g) → C2H6(g)
Rate = k [C2H4]All
Rate = k [C2H4]All
- Natural and artificial radioactive decay of unstable nucleus

Rate = k [Ra]
- Decomposition of N2O5 and NO2
Hope, this answer helps you.
Bets wishes!
