After how many seconds will the concentration of the reactant in a first order reaction be halved if the rate constant is $1.155 \times 10^{-3} \ s^{-1}$?

$10 \ g$ mixture of two gases $A_2$ (mol. wt. $= 20$) and $B_2$ (mol. wt. $= 30$),which decompose by first order kinetics,was taken in a vessel. The half-life of decomposition of $A_2$ and $B_2$ are $2 \ hours$ and $3 \ hours$ respectively. After $6 \ hours$,the weight of the mixture of $A_2$ and $B_2$ is found to be $2 \ g$. Find the weight of $A_2$ in the initial mixture in $g$.
