In the radiolysis of 0.4 M sulfuric acid solutions containing ceric ion, G(Ce+++) has been postulated (1) to be equal to 2GH202 + -GH Go.2 This mechanism has been confirmed (2) by a demonstration of concomitant oxidation of radioactive cerous ion during the course of ceric ion reduction. Spencer and Rollefson (3) have shown that formic acid in 1.4 M sulfuric acid increases G(Ce+++) to a maximum value of 2GH202 + GH + GOH according to the following sequence of reactions:
