Sucrose (C12H22O11), which is commonly known as table sugar, reactsin dilute acid solutions to form two simpler sugars, glucose andfructose, both of which have the formula C6H12O6. At 23 degrees Cand in 0.5M HCl , the following data were obtained for thedisappearance of sucrose:

Time (Min) C12H22O11 (M)
0 0.316
39 0.274
80 0.238
140 0.190
210 0.146

What is the value of the rate constant?
