    The half-life period of a reaction is independent of initial pressure. Predict the order of the reaction.

    A)  0                                            

    B)  1

    C)  2                                            

    D)  3

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    Half-life period of a first order reaction is dependent of the initial concentration of the reactant. \[{{t}_{1/2}}=\frac{0.693}{k}\] For a gaseous reactant its concentration is directly proportional to its pressure. Hence, the half-life period of a first order reaction is also independent to initial pressure.
