The reduction rate of Cr 3+ by e aq was determined, k 8 = 1.7 × 10 10 M −1 s −1 . The reaction of Cr 2+ with O 2 was studied, k 2 = 1.6 × 10 8 M −1 s −1 . The spectrum of CrO 2+ 2 was obtained both with the pulse radiolysis method and by mixing Cr 2+ with excess of O 2 . It was shown that CrO 2+ 2 decays slowly to yield HCrO − 4 . The results suggest that the reaction of Cr 2+ with O 2 is a two electron transfer process.
