Integrated rate law

• For first order, ln[A]t = - k1t + ln[A]0
• The slope is equal to the negative value of the reaction rate constant.
• Half-lives of first order reactions are constant for first order reactions.
• First order half life can be calculated using t1/2 = (ln2)/k1
• Half-lives of second order reactions are NOT constant for second order and zero order reactions.
• For zero order reactions, [A]t = - k0t + [A]0
