Montmorillonite, kaolinite, goethite, and particulate and soluble natural organic materials influence the rate of Mn(II) oxidation. While surfaces accelerate the reaction, apparently by bonding Mn 2+ in a manner which fulfills the requirements of the transition state, soluble organic materials retard the reaction by complexing the oxidizable species. It is doubtful whether particulate matter would influence the oxidation process under natural loading conditions since 50-500 mg l -1 quantities are required to produce measurable changes in the reaction rate. Complexation by humic materials, however, might be expected to reduce the rate of oxidation by an amount proportional to the dissolved organic carbon concentration. Oxidation followed by precipitation is predicted to be an important mechanism for Mn 2+ removal in oceanic waters. The situation is less predictable in lake waters.
