Answer:t_\frac{1}{2}=\frac{[a_0]}{2k}

Explanation: A\rightarrow Products

rate=k[A]^0    (1)

alsorate=-\frac{d[A]}{dt}    (2)

equating (1) and (2) 

k=-\frac{d[A]}{dt}       ([A]^0=1)

kdt=-{d[A]}

Integrating both sides and putting the limits for time as t=0 to t=t and for concentration from  [A]=[a_0] to [A]=[a]

Rate law expression for zero order kinetics is given by:

where, t = time taken for decomposition

k = rate constant

[a_0] = initial concentration

[a] = concentration left after time t

Half life period is the time taken to reduce the original reactants to half of its value.


t=t_\frac{1}{2},  [a]=\frac{[a_0]}{2}

t_\frac{1}{2}=\frac{[a_0]-\frac{[a_0]}{2}}{k}

t_\frac{1}{2}=\frac{[a_0]}{2k}
