shelf life (stability) of a new product at 25 C if it takes 2 days to decompose at 125 C.
a) 2048 days
b) 20 days
c) 200 days
d) 11,585 days
e) 365 days
can you please explain becuase half lifes for me is really confusing.
Using the rule of thumb that the reaction rate doubles for each 10 C, increase in temperature estimate the ...
I don't think they are really asking about half life in this question. I would just subtract 25 from 125. Then just count the 10 degree increments from 25 to 125. The time doubles every 10 degree drop, and there are 11 of them: so this gives 2^11 = 2048.
