Answer:

Half life period t

1/2

of a reaction is defined as the time required to reduced the concentration of a reactant to one half of its initial value.

k

1

=

t

2.303

log(

a−x

a

)

if amount reacted x=

2

a

then t=t

1/1

∴t

1/2

=

t

2.303

log(

a−a/2

a

)

t

1/2

=

k

1

2.303log(2.0)

⇒t

1/2

=

k

Thus half life period of a first order reaction is independent of the initial concentration of the reactant.
