Abstract
The effect of solvent on the rate constant of the reaction of nitrite ion with o-quinone has been investigated by means of voltammetry and voltammogram digital simulation methods. The experimental results have been compared with theoretical calculations; the latter results are in good agreement with experimental data and confirm that the dielectric constant of the solvent is the most influential factor on the rate of reaction.
