ð6Þ
r 2 ¼ k2
c2MeOH −cDME cH2 O =K 2 D
ð7Þ
r 3 ¼ k3
cDME cHCl −cMeCl cMeOH =K 3 D
ð8Þ
r 2 ¼ k2
r 3 ¼ k3

and the apparent activation energy is 1/2EA under strong diffusion control. This can explain the factor of two between the obtained and the previously published activation energies. Appendix Formulas A24 and 22 should read: β i cC β h 1−cC =c0 − 1−cC =c0 XA ¼ þ c0 1−β dci 1 ¼ εp dt
