Description
Summary:In this second sequel, the integrated rate law expression is the basis for a new method of projecting all its parameters to be determined as function of one primary varying parameter -in this case the rate constant- by utilizing the experimental data points to construct the functional dependency where this method is called the principle of induced parameter dependence (PIPD). Such a technique avoids problems associated with multiple minima and maxima because of the possibly large number of parameters. The method is applied to first and second order reactions based on published data where the results accord very well with standard treatments. The PIPD and its method could be a promising optimization technique for a large class of phenomena that have a large number of parameters that need to be determined without leading to "unphysical" and anomalous parameter values.
