Based on an approximate solution of the differential equations describing the rate of a reversible photoisomerization and the attenuation of the actinic light in a powdered adsorbent-adsorbate a method is presented permitting us to predict the irradiation time dependence of the sample reflectance and to determine both the quantum yields of the partial reactions and the absorption coefficients of the reactant and the product from the reflectance-time-curves measured at two different wavelengths. The present method, thus, is an improved version of the peviously reported procedure [1] which enables the quantum yield of a simple photoreaction to be calculated from the initial slope of the R(t)-curve. To test the method proposed here it has been used for calculating the photokinetic parameters of azobenzene adsorbed on disperse silica.
