In general, to calculate the rate constant for a first order decomposition reaction,
A → products, given the time needed to decrease the initial concentration by one half, which equation should be used?

▸ t1/2 = 1/(k[A]o)

▸ t1/2 = ln2/k

▸ [A]t = -kt + [A]o


▸ 1/[A]t = kt + 1/[A]o


▸ Rate = k[A]
