Option C is false statement. The half life of a second order reaction is not dependent on concentration.

Explanation:

Half life of a reaction is defined as the amount of time which is required for a reactant concentration reduced by half comparison to its initial concentration.

Half life of a second order reaction is depend on the initial concentration of a reaction, in contrast to 1st order reaction.
