Problem: The order for which half-life period is independent of initial concentration is:A. ZeroB. FirstC. SecondD. Third

We're being asked to determine the order for which half-life period is independent of initial concentration.

Let's determine the equation for the half-life for each order of reaction:

A. Zero

Recall the equation for a zeroth-order half-life:

$t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{{[A]}_{0}}{2 k}$

B. First
