The integrated rate law for the first order reaction is
t=2.303klogaa−x......(1)
Here, t is time, k is the rate constant, a is the initial concentration and a−x is the concentration at time t.
After one half life period, t=t1/2= half life period
and a−x=a2
Substitute these in equation (1)
t1/2=2.303klogaa2
t1/2=2.303klog2
t1/2=0.693k
This is the relationship between half life and rate constant for first order reaction.
