The concentration of R in the reaction R...

The concentration of `R` in the reaction `R rarr P` was measured as a function of time and the following data were obtained. What is the order of the reaction?
`|{:([R] (mol),1.0,0.75,0.40,0.10),(T (min),0.0,0.05,0.12,0.18):}|`

Zero order
`|{:([R] (mol),1.0,0.75,0.40,0.10),(T (min),0.0,0.05,0.12,0.18):}|`
On careful observation, it can be conclude that the rate of the reaction is not decreaisng with decrease in the concentration of the reactant, so the order of the reaction must be zero.
