Treatment of results. If Procedure 1 or 2 were employed in making concentration measurements, use a linear regression analysis with Equation 4 under para- graph (a)(2)(v)(B) of this section to cal- culate kh at 25 °C for each pH employed in the hydrolysis experiments. Cal- culate the coefficient of determination (R2) for each rate constant. Use Equa- tion 3 under paragraph (a)(2)(v)(B) of this section to calculate the hydrolysis half-life using kh.
Treatment of results. The molar absorption co- efficient e should be calculated for all absorbance maxima of the test sub- stance. The formula for this calcula- tion is: ε= A , c,i ×d where the quantities are as defined above (see Definitions and units).

Treatment of results. (i) Test compound (10 mg car- bon) is theoretically converted to 0.833 mmol CO2. Absorbed CO2 precipitates as BaCO3 from Ba(OH)2, causing a re- duction in alkalinity by the equivalent of 16.67 mL of 0.1 N HCl for complete conversion of the test compound car- bon to CO2. Therefore, the percent the- oretical CO2 evolved from the test com- pound is calculated at any sampling time from the formula: Percent CO2 evolution=[(TF–CF)/16.67] 100 (for 10 mg/L test compound car- bon) where: TF= mL 0.1 N HCl required to titrate Ba(OH)2 samples from the test flask CF= mL 0.1 N HCl required to titrate Ba(OH)2 samples from the control flask.
