In a reaction $A + B \rightarrow C$,initial concentrations of $A$ and $B$ are related as $[A]_0 = 8[B]_0$. The half-lives of $A$ and $B$ are $10 \ min$ and $40 \ min$,respectively. If they start to disappear at the same time,both following first-order kinetics,after how much time will the concentration of both the reactants be the same (in $min$)?

  • A
    $60$
  • B
    $80$
  • C
    $20$
  • D
    $40$
