Half-life Formulas

Postby taywebb » Fri Mar 15, 2019 12:08 pm

I know we have to know how to derive the integrated rate laws, but will we have to solve for the half-life formulas as well? or will we just have to recognize which half-life formula is for which order?

I'm pretty sure you only need to know which formula goes with which order, but I mean, understanding how to get the half-life would probably help a lot not only on the test but on conceptual problems as well.

It's best to understand how you would get to the half life to help with the conceptual aspects of this section.
