Answer:

Zero order

Step-by-step explanation:

A zero order reaction is one in which the rate of reaction is independent of the concentration of reactants.

In a zero-order reaction, the half-life of the reactants is directly proportional to the initial concentration of the reactants . As initial concentration increases, the half-life for the reaction increases likewise and vice versa.
