The half-life for a reaction is ………. of temperature:

A

Independent

B

Increased with increase

C

Decreased with increase

D

Dependent

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c
Half-life depends upon rate constant and rate constant `(K)` varies with temperature. Since `K=A.e^(-E_(a)//RT)`, thus `K` increases with temperature. Also `t_(1//2) prop 1/K`
