Answer:

[tex]t=2.08s[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for first order reactions, we can use the following integrated rate law:

[tex]ln(\frac{[A]}{[A]_0} )=kt[/tex]

Thus, we compute the time as shown below:

[tex]t=-\frac{ln(\frac{[A]}{[A]_0} )}{k}=- \frac{ln(\frac{0.220M}{0.690M} )}{0.55s^{-1}} \\\\t=-\frac{-1.14}{0.550s^{-1}}\\ \\t=2.08s[/tex]

Best regards.
