In a first order reaction,the concentration of reactant decreases from $800 \ mol/dm^3$ to $50 \ mol/dm^3$ in $2 \times 10^2 \ s$. The rate constant of the reaction in $s^{-1}$ is:

  • A
    $2 \times 10^4$
  • B
    $3.45 \times 10^{-5}$
  • C
    $1.386 \times 10^{-2}$
  • D
    $2 \times 10^{-4}$
