Abstract:
The kinetics of the reaction between formaldehyde and hexacyanoferrate(III) ion in alkaline medium has been investigated at four temperatures. The data show that the reaction is rapid initially, then follows a simple first order rate with respect to each of the hexacyanoferrate(III) ion, formaldehyde, and hydroxide ion. Calculations reveal that only 0.27% of the formaldehyde corresponds to the initial rapid reaction; the remaining 99.73% follows the kinetics described. The net rate of the oxidation of formaldehyde as measured by the consumption of hexacyanoferrate(III) ion, is given by[Formula: see text]
