💡 Solution & Explanation

For a zero-order reaction, the rate is constant, so t_1/2 = [A]0 / 2k and t_completion = [A]0 / k, making the half-life exactly half of the completion time. This relationship does not hold for reactions of other orders (e.g., first-order reactions take infinite time to theoretically complete). Therefore, correct answer is C.
