BRAINCAKEHalf-Lives and Reaction Rate Graphs
The half-life of a reactant is the time taken for the concentration of a reactant to reduce by half. If the order is zero with respect to a reactant, the concentration of the reactant does not affect the rate of reaction. A zero-order reaction has a decreasing half-life.
