At 500 âC, cyclopropane (C3H6) rearranges to propene (CH3âCH=CH2). The reaction is first order, and the rate constant is 6.7Ã10â4sâ1. If the initial concentration of C3H6 is 0.0550 M.

What is the half-life (in minutes) of this reaction?

How many minutes will it take for the concentration of cyclopropane to drop to 9.25 % of its initial value?

Cyclopropane () reacts to form propene () in the gas phase. The reaction is first order in cyclopropane and has a rate constant of 5.87x10^-4 s^-1 at 485^oC. If a 2.6-L reaction vessel initially contains 725 torr of cyclopropane at 485^oC, how long will it take for the partial pressure of cyclopropane to drop to below 104 torr?
