kinectic of galena and cerussite in acid ph
« on: 24/10/17 16:46 »
hello sir david,
Please, I want to know if my execution of kinetics to find the index of saturation of galena and cerussite in acid ph are right.
thank you
 
RATES
    Galena
-start
10 k = PARM(1)
20 n = PARM(2)
30 ph = PARM(3)
40 lograte = LOG k-n*ph
50 moles = (10^lograte)*TIME
60 SAVE moles
-end

I have no idea whether your calculations are "right".

The rate that you have is very slow. You have removed oxygen from your rate definition, but I expect that the availability of oxygen is a critical factor in the rate of galena dissolution.

thank you for your reply.
I tried to follow the dissolution of galena in the pit lake of an old mine of lead.
so I tried to take a kinetic equation and apply it directly
