Half-life for 1st order reactions is:
Correct answer: B. T½ = 0.693/k
- A. T½ = k/0.693
- B. T½ = 0.693/k
- C. None of these
- D. T½ = 0.693k
Explanation
The half-life of first-order reactions is given by the equation:T1/2 = 0.693/kwhere 'k' is the rate constant.

About Order of Reaction
Reaction order shows how the rate depends on the concentration of each reactant, as expressed in the rate law. Coverage includes zero, first and second-order reactions, integrated rate equations, half-life, units of rate constants and the distinction between overall order and molecularity.
