If a is the initial concentration of reaction, then the half life period of a reaction of nth order is proportional to

A

`a^(n)`

B

`a^(n-1)`

C

`a^(1-n)`

D

`a^(n+1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

For a reaction of nth order, `t_(1//2)prop(1)/(a^(n-1))` or `t_(1//2)propa^(1-n)`
