Calculate the magnitude of the diffusion-controlled rate constant at 298 K for the recombination of two atoms

Question:

Calculate the magnitude of the diffusion-controlled rate constant at 298 K for the recombination of two atoms in water, for which η = 0.89 cP. Assuming the concentration of the reacting species is 1.0 mmol dm−3 initially, how long does it take for the concentration of the atoms to fall to half that value? Assume the reaction is elementary.
