When initial concentration of the reacta...

When initial concentration of the reactant is doubled, the half-life period of a zero order reaction

A

is halved

B

is doubled

C

is tripled

D

remains unchanged

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`(t_(1//2))_(zero) = ([A]_(0))/(2K)` for zero order `t_(1//2) prop [A_(0)]^(1)`
`:.` If `[A]_(0) =` doubled, `t_(1//2) =` doubled.
