A first-order rate equation which is believed to be the earliest model that was presented by Lagergen (1898) to describe the kinetic process of liqud-solid phase adsorption of oxalic acid and malonic acid onto charcoal pertains to the adsorption rate based on the adsorption capacity.
Usage
firstorder(t, Ce)
Arguments
t
duration of the experiment
Ce
the numerical value for the equilibrium capacity
Value
the regression analysis for the first order kinetics
