Q.
From the following data, show that the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide is a reaction of the first order:
| t (min) | 0 | 10 | 20 |
|---|---|---|---|
| V (ml) | 46.1 | 29.8 | 19.3 |
Where t is the time in minutes and V is the volume of standard solution required for titrating the same volume of the reaction mixture.

Here V (volume of standard needed to titrate the sample) is directly proportional to the REMAINING concentration of at each time (unlike Question 28, where the gas evolved tracked the amount reacted) -- so the first order formula applies directly as .
