For a first order reaction ($R \rightarrow P$), a plot of $\ln \frac{[R]_0}{[R]}$ on y-axis and time on x-axis gave a straight line passing through the origin. The slope of straight line is 'x'. The rate constant of this reaction is
Show Hint
Be careful with log bases.
- Plot of $\ln(R_0/R)$ vs $t$: Slope = $k$.
- Plot of $\log_{10}(R_0/R)$ vs $t$: Slope = $k/2.303$.
