Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The $\left[\text{A}\right]$ versus time graph for a zero-, first- and a second order reaction is to be stated and value of half-life for each is to be calculated and compared.

Concept introduction: The order of a reaction is determined by adding the powers of the concentration of the reactants in the rate equation. Order of a reaction can be a whole number like $0,1,2$ or $3$ or can even be a fractional value.
