Consider the following initial rate data (at 295 K) for the decomposition of a substrate (substrate 1) which decomposes to product 1 and product 2:
[Substrate 1]
(M) Initial Rate
(M/s)
0.2 0.163
0.4 0.326
1.2 0.978
Determine the half-life for the decomposition of substrate 1 when the initial concentration of the substrate is 2.39 M.
