Question 47

Open question
CYNAT2 marksNeeds review
Consider the following two parallel irreversible first order reactions at temperature T,
P → Q (k₁) P → R (k₂)
Diagram for Chemistry question 47

where k₁ and k₂ are the rate constants and their values are 5 × 10⁻² and 15 × 10⁻² min⁻¹, respectively, at temperature T. If the initial concentration of the reactant ‘P’ is 4 mol L⁻¹, then the concentration of product ‘R’ after 10 min of reaction is ______ mol L⁻¹. (Round off to two decimal places)
(Assume only P is present at the beginning of the reaction.)
