Which statement is not true for a second-order reaction? (a) It can have rate constant 1×10−2 L mol−1 s−11\times10^{-2}\text{ L mol}^{-1}\text{ s}^{-1}. (b) Its half-life is inversely proportional to its initial concentration. (c) The time to complete 75%75\% reaction is twice the half-life. (d) T50%=1k×initial concentrationT_{50\%}=\frac{1}{k\times\text{initial concentration}}
