Q.65) For first order reaction-
$t=\frac{6.9}{k}$ for $\sim 99.9 \%$ completion (more accurately, $t=\frac{6.91}{k}$ )

Also half-life for a first order is given by-

$$
t_{1 / 2}=\frac{0.693}{k} \Rightarrow k=\frac{0.693}{1}=0.693 \Rightarrow t=\frac{6.91}{0.693} \approx 10 \mathrm{~min}
$$
 

 

Hence, the correct answer is option (1).
