| Abstract: | A kinetic and equilibrium study of the addition reaction of hydroxide ions to nitroprusside has been carried out in this paper. Rate and equilibrium constants at different salt concentrations (up to 4 mol kg?1) were obtained, and the influence of ionic strength was studied by means of Pitzer equations. This model is of special interest because it is able to explain the experimental behavior at high ionic strength, when Debye–Huckel limiting law is no longer valid. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
