Elimination Rate Constant
COMPARING THE RATE CONSTANT VALUES OBTAINED
Method 1: Slope Of Graph
When you found the elimination rate constant using the slope of the graph and the equation below:
You obtained the following value for the elimination rate constant:
k = 0.172 h
-1
Method 2: Equation
When you used the equation below linking elimination rate constant and half-life:
You obtained the following value for the elimination rate constant:
k = 0.173 h
-1
