Assume the reaction: A → Products, is a simple first-order decay. If the amount of A drops from an initial value at t = 0 of 0.5000 mol to 0.0625 mol in exactly 1 h, what is the rate constant k and half-life for the reaction?

- k = 0.0116 s⁻¹, t₁/₂ = 60 s
- k = 0.00193 s⁻¹, t₁/₂ = 360 s
- k = 0.693 h⁻¹, t₁/₂ = 1 h
- k = 2.08 × 10⁻³ s⁻¹, t₁/₂ = 333 s
