The rate of formation of hexacyanomanganate(II) is first-order in Mn(II) and depends on both the cyanide and hydroxide concentrations. The experimental results agree with a reaction mechanism which involves manganese(II) cyano- and hydroxo-complexes. Chromate slowly oxidizes hexacyanomanganate(II). The kinetics of this reaction is first-order on hexacyanomanganate(II), and the experimental rate constant depends on the chromate concentration according to the equation kexp = 3kK[Cr(VI)]/(1 + K[Cr(VI)]). The effect of both the CN− and the OH− ions is slighter. A tentative mechanism is proposed which involves a pre-equilibrium with the formation of a hexacyanomanganate(II)–chromate complex, followed by a monomolecular decomposition. By comparing this reaction mechanism with that of other one-electron chromate reductions, it appears that hexacyanomanganate(II) behaves like octacyanomolybdate(IV) rather than like hexacyanoferrate(II) and other substitution-inert reductants. Both the equilibrium constants for the complex formation and the rate constant for its decomposition are evaluated, and voltammetric evidence of the formation of hexacyanomanganate(III)–chromate complexes is also presented. Keywords: hexacyanomanganate(II), formation rate, oxidation with chromate, kinetics, mechanism.

The kinetics of reaction of ortho-substituted phenylmercuric chlorides, 2-R-C6H4HgCl (R = H, CH3, CH3O, C2H5O, CF3, COOC2H5, Cl, Br, F, NO2), with hydrochloric acid in absolute ethanol in the presence of sodium iodide has been studied. The reaction is of the overall second order, first order with respect to each reactant. The rate constant determined at a fixed temperature decreases in the order of R: C2H5O > CH3O > CH3 > H > COOC2H5 > F > Cl > Br > CF3 > NO2. The role of inductive, resonance and field effects of the ortho-substituents, and the relation between steric demands of the ortho-substituents and volume of attacking species are discussed. The underlying mechanism is proposed on the basis of experimental results.

An investigation has been made of the kinetics of hydration of tricalcium silicate at several temperatures in a large excess of water in the presence of various added ions. The rate data have been interpreted by a reaction mechanism which involves: (a) the first order hydration of tricalcium silicate to form an intermediate product, 1.5CaO•SiO2, which can react by two pathways, (b) the direct first order decomposition of intermediate, 1.5CaO•SiO2, to form lime and silica or (b′) complexing of intermediate with silica and subsequent decomposition to form lime and silica. This reaction mechanism predicts the rate of production of base during the hydration. The effect of various added ions is interpreted in terms of the proposed mechanism.Rate constants and activation energies for the various steps in the proposed mechanism are reported.

The oxo-bridged complex ( py ) FePc - O - FePc ( py ) ( py = pyridine , Pc = phthalocyaninato dianion) reacts in dichloromethane with hydrogen sulphide giving elementary sulphur and the reduced ( py )2( FePc ) complex in the stoichiometric ratio 1:1. Under excess py and H2S , the reaction is first-order and the rate constant at a given py concentration is an increasing function of the reducing agent concentration, with asymptotic tendency to a limiting value. This latter depends on the pyridine concentration being higher the lower is the base concentration. When the reaction is carried out in pure pyridine, the rate constant is, instead, a strictly linear function of [ H2S ], with zero intercept. A reaction mechanism is proposed where the dichloromethane is directly involved in the axial coordination about the iron centers and H2S competes efficiently with both pyridine and solvent.

An idealized model for the kinetics of benzo[ a]pyrene (BaP) metabolism is established. As observed from experimental results, the BaP transfer from microcrystals to the cell membrane is definitely a first-order process. The rate constant of this process is signified as k1. We describe the surface–midplane exchange as reversible and use rate constants k2 and k3 to describe the inward and outward diffusions, respectively. The metabolism is identified as an irreversible reaction with a rate constant k4. If k2 and k3 are assumed to be fast and not rate determining, the effect of the metabolism rate, k4, on the number density of BaP in the midplane of the microsomal membrane, m3, can be estimated. If the metabolism rate is faster than or comparable to the distribution rates, k2 and k3, the BaP concentration in the membrane midplane, m3, will quickly be dissipated. But if k4 is extremely small, m3 will reach a plateau. Under conditions when k2 and k3 also play significant roles in determining the overall rate, more complicated patterns of m3 are expected.

Results are presented on the rate of thiamin cleavage by sulphite in aqueous solutions as affected by temperature (20–70°), pH(2·5–7·0), and variation of the concentration of either thiamin (1–20μm) or sulphite (10–5000μm as sulphur dioxide). Plots of the logarithm of percentage of residual thiamin against time were found to be linear and cleavage thus was first-order with respect to thiamin. At pH5 the rate was also found to be proportional to the sulphite concentration. In the pH region 2·5–7·0 at 25° the rate constant was 50m−1hr.−1 at pH5·5–6·0, and decreased at higher or lower pH values. The rate of reaction increased between 20° and 70°, indicating a heat of activation of 13·6kcal./mole.

Oxidation of Ni2+,aq, by S2O82- to nickel(IV) in the presence of molybdate ion, as in the analogous manganese system, involves the formation of the soluble heteropolymolybdate anion [MMogO32]2- (M = Ni, Mn ). The nickel(IV) product crystallized as (NH4)6 [NiMogO32].6H2O from the reaction mixture in the rhombohedra1 space group R3, a 15.922(1), c 12.406(1) � ; the structure was determined by X-ray diffraction methods, and refined to a residual of 0.025 for 1741 independent 'observed' reflections. The kinetics of the oxidation were examined at 80 C over the pH range 3.0-5.2; a linear dependence on [S2O82-] and a non-linear dependence on l/[H+] were observed. The influence of variation of the Ni/Mo ratio between 1:10 and 1:25 on the observed rate constant was very small at pH 4.5, a result supporting the view that the precursor exists as the known [NiMo6O24H6]4- or a close analogue in solution. The pH dependence of the observed rate constant at a fixed oxidant concentration (0.025 mol dm-3) fits dequately to the expression kobs = kH [H+]/(Ka+[H+]) where kH = 0.0013 dm3 mol-1 s-1 and Ka = 4-0x10-5. The first-order dependence on peroxodisulfate subsequently yields a second-order rate constant of 0.042 dm3 mol-1 s-1. Under analogous conditions, oxidation of manganese(II) occurs eightfold more slowly than oxidation of nickel(II), whereas oxidation of manganese(II) by peroxomonosulfuric acid is 16-fold faster than oxidation by peroxodisulfate under similar conditions.

In this research, treatment of diatomaceous earth, Sangiran, Central Java using hydrogen chloride (HCl) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4) on kinetics of Cd(II) adsorption in aqueous solution has been carried out. The work was conducted by mixing an amount of grounded diatomaceous earth (200 mesh in size) with HCl or H2SO4 solution in various concentrations for two hours at temperature range of 100 - 150oC. The mixture was then filtered and washed with water until the filtrate pH is approximately 7 and then the residue was dried for four hours at a temperature of 70oC. The product was used as an adsorbent to adsorb Cd(II) in aqueous solution with various concentrations. The Cd(II) adsorbed was determined by analyzing the rest of Cd(II) in the solution using atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The effect of treatment was evaluated from kinetic parameter of adsorption rate constant calculated based on the simple kinetic model. Results showed  that before equilibrium condition reached, adsorpstion of Cd(II) occurred through two steps, i.e. a step tends to follow a reaction of irreversible first order  (step I) followed by reaction of reversible first order (step II). Treatment with acids, either hydrogen chloride or sulfuric acid, decreased adsorption rate constant for the step I from 15.2/min to a range of 6.4 - 9.4/min.  However, increasing concentration of acid (in a range of concentration investigated) did not give significant and constant change of adsorption rate constant. For step II process,  adsorption involved physical interaction with the sufficient low adsorption energy (in a range of 311.3 - 1001 J/mol).     Keywords: adsorption, cdmium, diatomaceous earth, kinetics.

The kinetics of the reconstitution reaction of apotyrosinase with copper (II) ions are reported. The reaction is pseudo first order with respect to apoenzyme and the values of these pseudo first order rate constants are reported as a function of copper (II) concentration. Two copper ions bind to apoenzyme, and if the second one is rate limiting, the kinetically relevant copper concentration is the copper originally added minus the amount used in binding the first copper ion to enzyme. This modified copper concentration is linearly related to the magnitude of the pseudo first order rate constant, up to a copper concentration of 1.25 × 10−4 M (10-fold excess), giving a second order rate constant of 7.67 × 102 ± 0.93 × 102 M−1∙s−1.Key words: apotyrosinase, copper, tyrosinase.

The paper reports a study of the kinetics of the reaction between phosphoenolpyruvate, ADP and Mg2+ catalysed by rabbit muscle pyruvate kinase. The experimental results indicate that the reaction mechanism is equilibrium random-order in type, that the substrates and products are phosphoenolpyruvate, ADP, Mg2+, pyruvate and MgATP, and that dead-end complexes, between pyruvate, ADP and Mg2+, form randomly and exist in equilibrium with themselves and other substrate complexes. Values were determined for the Michaelis, dissociation and inhibition constants of the reaction and are compared with values ascertained by previous workers.

The kinetics of iron(III) hydrolysis and precipitation in aqueous glycine solutions were studied by cathodic voltammetry with a mercury drop electrode. The kinetics was controlled by changing ionic strength (I), pH and glycine concentration. Voltammetric measurements clearly showed formation and dissociation of a soluble Fe(III)–glycine complex, formation of iron(III) hydroxide and its precipitation. The rate constants of iron(III) hydroxide precipitation were assessed. The precipitation is first-order with respect to dissolved inorganic iron(III). The calculated rate constants of iron(III) precipitation varied from 0.18 × 10–5 s–1 (at 0.2 M total glycine, pH 7.30, I = 0.6 mol dm–3) to 2.22 × 10–3 s–1 (at 0.1 M total glycine, pH 7.30, I = 0.2 mol dm–3). At 0.5 M total glycine and I = 0.6 mol dm–3, the iron(III) precipitation was not observed.
