For a zero-order reaction,the correct expression for rate constant $(k)$ at half-life time $(t_{1/2})$ is ($[R_0] =$ initial concentration of reactant).

  • A
    $k = \frac{2.303}{t_{1/2}} \log \frac{[R_0]}{\frac{[R_0]}{2}}$
  • B
    $k = \frac{2.303}{t} \log \frac{[R_0]}{[R_0]}$
  • C
    $k = \frac{[R_0] - \frac{1}{2}[R_0]}{t_{1/2}}$
  • D
    $k = \frac{2.303}{(t_2 - t_1)} \log [R_0]$
