The green line and symbols represent the
Cplate
line. A value for 
can be calculated
from this line to be
0.0662 hr-1 with the intercept value, B = 5.53 mg/L.
The table below can be completed with the calculation of the residual
(= Cp - Cplate). Plotting the
Residual versus time gives the
red line on the graph above. From this line it is possible to
calculate 
= 2.74 hr-1
(from the slope) and A = 12.0 mg/L (from the intercept)
