The reaction $2A \rightarrow \text{Product}$ follows first-order kinetics. If the initial concentration $[A]_0 = 0.2 \ mol \ L^{-1}$ and the half-life period $t_{1/2} = 20 \ min$,calculate the rate constant $k$.

  • A
    $0.03465 \ min^{-1}$
  • B
    $0.0693 \ min^{-1}$
  • C
    $0.0173 \ min^{-1}$
  • D
    None of these
