For the reaction A→BA\rightarrow B, the rate law is rate=k[A]\text{rate}=k[A]. Which of the following statements is incorrect? (a) The reaction follows first-order kinetics. (b) The t1/2t_{1/2} of reaction depends on the initial concentration of reactants. (c) kk is constant for the reaction at a constant temperature. (d) The rate law provides a simple way of predicting the concentration of reactants and products at any time after the start of the reaction.
