t <- c(0, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250) # [minutes]
# or you can write t <- seq(0, 250, 50)
CA <- c(154, 114, 87, 76, 70, 58) # [mol/m^3]
# Plot the data first. See the expected trend. It it decreasing nonlinearly, so it is either first or second order (but not zeroth order)
plot(t, CA)
grid()
# Assume it is a first order, rA = -k CA
# So plot log(CA0/CA) against t
plot(t, log(CA[1]/CA))

# Does not quite look like a straight line, but let us fit a least-squares model anyway

So we got a higher \(R^2\) on the second order model. The reaction rate can be considered second order. What is the reaction rate constant, \(k_A\) for this system?
