Option 3

For first order reaction,

    t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{2.303}{k}\log_{10}\frac{a}{a-x}

a = 100\%\;\;\;\;x=99\%

        a - x= 1\%

t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{2.303}{k}\log_{10}\frac{100}{1} = \frac{2.303}{k}\log_{10}10^2

t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{2.303}{k}\times 2 = \frac{4.606}{k}


Option 1)

t = 0.693/k

Option 2)

t = 6.909/k

Option 3)

t = 4.606/k

Option 4)

t = 2.303/k
