The kinetic investigations of the redox reaction between malachite green, MG+, and hypochlorite ion, ClO–, were carried out in aqueous HClO4 medium at [H+] = 1x10–3 mol dm–3, µ = 0.1 mol dm–3, T = 25±1°C. The reaction showed a stoichiometry of 1:2, which conforms to the equati...
The kinetics of the oxidation of malachite green, MG+, by dithionite ions, S2O42- have been studied spectrophotometrically in an aqueous acid free medium. The investigation was carried out under pseudo- first order conditions of an excess of dithionite concentration. Reaction con...
