The correct option is C 966 min
The integrated rate law expression for the inversion of can sugar (assuming first order kinetics) is as shown.
k=2.303tlogr0−r∞rt−r∞
For 60 minutes
k=2.30360log13.1−(−3.8)11.6−(3.8)=0.001549
For 120 minutes
k=2.303120log13.1−(−3.8)10.2−(3.8)=0.001569
For 180 minutes
k=2.303180log13.1−(−3.8)9.0−(3.8)=0.001544
For 360 minutes
k=2.303360log13.1−(−3.8)5.87−(3.8)=0.001551
Since, the value of k is constant, the reaction follows first order reaction.
The average value of k is 0.001549+0.001569+0.001544+0.0015514=0.00621354=0.001553min−1
To determine the total time, substitute rt=0 in the above expression.
t=2.303klogr0−r∞rt−r∞
t=2.3030.001553log13.1−(−3.8)0−(−3.8)=966min
