For a zero order reaction, concentration of reactant at any given time t,

\mathrm{A = Ao -Kt } where Ao is initial concentration and t is time elapsed

For completion, A is taken as zero

\mathrm{\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow 0=\mathrm{Ao}-\mathrm{Kt} \\ & \Rightarrow \mathrm{t}=\mathrm{Ao} / \mathrm{K} \end{aligned} }.
