The kinetics of interaction of Mo2O42+ with VO2+ was studied in HClO4,
medium at 25-degrees-C and ionic strength of 2 M by the stopped-flow
technique. Under conditions of excess VO2+ a reaction mechanism is pro
posed to account for the observed pseudo-first order kinetics. For the
overall process, 1/2 [Mo2O4(H2O)6]2+ + VO2+ half arrow right over hal
f arrow left C+H+, the equilibrium constant (K = 33 M1/2) was determin
ed by absorbance measurements.
