Abstract: The oxidation of ferrocyanide by permanganate ion has been studied in several electrolyte solutions over the concentration range of 0—6 mol dm^-3 . The observed kinetic salt effect may be interpreted as arising as a result of ion—solvent interactions. In the case of magnesium salt, however, another effect, probably that of a local hydrolysis, also contributes to the kinetic salt effect.
