THE INHIBITION OF CALCITE DISSOLUTION PRECIPITATION - MG2+ CATIONS
The dissolution of calcite under conditions of high pH (8.0-9.0) is shown to be strongly inhibited by the presence of magnesium (Mg2+) cations. Channel flow cell measurements are used to deduce the appropriate rate law for dissolution and it is demonstrated that the inhibition arises from competitiv...
