The steady-state, far-from-equilibrium dissolution rates of nine distinct plagioclases ranging in composition from An2 toAn89 were measured in mixed flow reactors at 22 ± 2 C and pH from 2 to 11. The dissolution rates of all plagioclases basedon silica release show a common U-shaped behaviour as a function of pH, where rates decrease with increasing pH at acidcondition but rise with increasing pH at alkaline conditions. Consistent with literature findings, constant pH plagioclase dissolutionrates increase with increasing anorthite content at acidic conditions; measured anorthite dissolution rates are 2.5orders of magnitude faster than those of albite at pH 2. Perhaps more significantly, rates are independent of plagioclasecomposition at alkaline conditions. Interpretation and data fitting suggests that plagioclase dissolution rates are consistentwith their control by the detachment of Si-rich activated complexes formed by the removal of Al from the mineral framework.Taking account of this mechanism and transition state theory yields equations describing plagioclase dissolution rates (r+) asa function of both the mineral and aqueous fluid compositions found in natural Earth surface systems.
