and
Similar modifications will be required for the expression of percentage
saturation:
From this, we can derive the following:
On using the experimental data of Roughton
et al.
(1955) at very low and
very high oxygen pressures, we note that the value of
is reduced by a
factor of two, while that of
increased by a factor of two, i.e.
and
The requirement of
at
gives:
k = 2.06,
which is equal to the value of in the MWC model. Again, by least
square fitting to the entire set of experimental measurements of Roughton
