\mathrm{\begin{aligned} \frac{\left(t_{1 / 2}\right)_1}{\left(t_{1 / 2}\right)_2} & =\left(\frac{p_1}{p_2}\right)^{1-n} \\ \left(\frac{380}{190}\right) & =\left(\frac{50.4}{25.2}\right)^{1-n} \\ (2)^1 & =(2)^{1-n} \\ 1 & =1-n \\ n & =0 \end{aligned}}

for zero order reaction half life is direct proportional to the initial concentration
