In a first order reaction,$87.5 \%$ of the reactant is converted into the product in $15 \ minutes$. The rate constant for the reaction is given by:

  • A
    $\frac{0.693}{5} \ min^{-1}$
  • B
    $\frac{0.693}{15} \ min^{-1}$
  • C
    $\frac{5}{0.693} \ min^{-1}$
  • D
    $0.693 \times 5 \ min^{-1}$
