| Abstract | The kinetics of oxidation of AsIIIby Fe(CN)63− has been studied spectrophotometrically in 60% AcOH–H2O containing 4.0 mol dm−3HCl. The oxidation is made possible by the difference in redox potentials. The reaction is first order each in [Fe(CN)63−] and [AsIII]. Amongst the initially added products, Fe(CN)64− retards the reaction and AsVdoes not. Increasing the acid concentration at constant chloride concentration accelerates the reaction. At constant acidity increasing chloride concentration increases the reaction rate, which reaches a maximum and then decreases. H2Fe(CN)6−, is the active species of Fe(CN)63−, while AsCl52− in an ascending portion and AsCl2+ in a descending portion are considered to be the active species of AsIII. A suitable reaction mechanism is proposed and the reaction constants of the different steps involved have been evaluated. |
