The reaction 2kalsi3o8 + 2(h+ + hco3-) + h2o  →  al2si2o5(oh)4 + 2k+ + 2hco3- + 4sio2 shows that feldspar kalsi3o8 is chemically altered by hydrolysis to form chalky-looking clay mineral kaolinite al2si2o5(oh)4. the chemical breakdown of potassium feldspar due to exposure to acidic water results to the mineral binding with the water molecule to become kaolinite with silica and potassium and bicarbonate ions in solution.

Reaction involved in present system is :   c12h22o11 + h2o → 2 c6h12o6the reaction system is obeying following rate law:   rate = k[c12h22o11]thus, it is a first order reaction.now, for 1st order reactionrate constant (k) =  given: initial conc. = 3.0 g, final conc. = 2.7 g, t = 2.5 h∴rate constant (k) =  ∴ k = 0.04215 h-1now, for 1st order reaction, half life = 0.693/k = 0.693/0.04215 = 16.4 hthus correct answer is option b
