How much percentage of reactants is converted into products during half-life period?
Correct answer: C. 50%
- A. 40%
- B. 70%
- C. 50%
- D. 30%
Explanation
The percentage of reactants converted into products during one half-life is approximately 50%. This means that in a typical chemical reaction, regardless of its order, roughly half of the initial reactants will be converted into products after one half-life.

About Reaction Kinetics
Reaction kinetics relates reaction rate to concentration, temperature, surface area and catalysts. Questions cover rate laws, reaction order, rate constants, activation energy and the activated complex, including how a catalyst lowers the activation energy without changing the overall energy change or equilibrium position.
