🦷 DAT Exam Prep

First-order reaction kinetics show that the half-life:

A Depends on concentration
B Is constant and independent of initial concentration (t½ = 0.693/k)
C Is always 1 hour
D Increases with concentration

✓ Correct Answer: Option B

First-order: t½ = ln2/k. Independent of [A]. This is why radioactive decay has a constant half-life.
