Point out the wrong statement for a first order reaction:

  • A
    Time for half-change $({t_{1/2}})$ is independent of initial concentration.
  • B
    Change in the concentration unit does not change the rate constant $(K)$.
  • C
    Time for half-change $\times$ rate constant $= 0.693$.
  • D
    The unit of $K$ is $mole^{-1} \ min^{-1}$.

Hydrolysis of methyl acetate in aqueous solution has been studied by titrating the liberated acetic acid against sodium hydroxide. The concentration of the ester at different times is given below:
Time $(t)$ $\text{min}$ $0$ $30$ $60$ $90$
Conc. of ester $(C)$ $\text{mol L}^{-1}$ $0.850$ $0.800$ $0.754$ $0.710$

Show that it follows a pseudo first-order reaction as the concentration of $H_2O$ remains nearly constant $(54.2 \text{ mol L}^{-1})$ during the course of the reaction. What is the value of $k'$ in this reaction?
