First order kinetic processes are common in chemistry and
in other areas. This program accepts up to 42 data points,
calculates the rate constant and intercept by the method of
least squares, and gives the rms deviation, the correlation
coefficient, and an estimate of the error in slope. It permits
graphical (CRT) examination of deviations from the least
squares line and iteration to a "best" infinity value. It also
provides options for plotting the deviation between observed
and calculated quantities on a CRT and may be used in other
cases in which one wishes to correlate the natural logarithm
of one quantity with another, as in Iinear free energy rela-
tionships.
