The half-life of a reaction $\mathrm{A} ightarrow$ product is increased two times when the concentration of $\mathrm{A}$ is double. The order of the reaction is
  1. 0
  2. 1
  3. 2
  4. 3

Solution

For a zero-order reaction, the half-life is directly proportional to the initial concentration of A. Hence, the reaction is of zero order.
