उत्तर

The half-life of a first order reaction is independent of the initial conc. of the reactant.

Explanation:

The half-life of a first-order reaction is independent of the initial concentration of the reactant. This is a unique characteristic of first-order reactions, and it can be derived from the integrated rate law for first-order kinetics:

`t_(1//2) = 0.693/k`

Since k is a constant, the half-life does not depend on how much reactant is present initially.
