One of the HW questions in my upper div marine chem class that I cant figure out.

The rate of reduction of Hg2+ (aq) by V2+ (aq) in weakly acid solution increases as the acid concentration decreases.
Why do you think this is?


thanks so much.

I would think about how changes in pH are related to changes in ion speciation.
