mp where eosin is colorless. Since the back reaction (IV) cannot take place with eaq- and H atom scavengers present, the low G values indicate that more than one OH radical is required to decolor a dye molecule. In fact, if n OH are required, then the expected values of G( -S) in air-saturated solutions, in NzO saturated solutions, and with moderately high H202 present are: Go&, (Ge -I- GoH)/n, and
