Document Summary
Determine k, and : differential method, graphical method, numerical method, polynomial fit. Integral method: linear fit, non-linear regression, half-lives method. Determine ka, and : integral method, linear fit: this method uses a trial and error procedure to find reaction order ( is an integer). If = 0 (reaction zero order) dc. Integrating with ca = ca0 at t = 0, we have t. If we have a linear with slope k, then we conclude the reaction is zero order: integral method. If = 1 (reaction first order) r. Plot ln(ca0/ca) versus t: integral method lnca0/ca. If we have a linear with slope k, then we conclude the reaction is first order: integral method (continued) If = 2 (reaction second order) r. Plot 1/ca versus t: integral method (continued) If we have a linear with slope k, then we conclude the reaction is second order. Find the relationship between ca and t, if =3 r.
