PHOTOCHEMISTRY OF VISUAL PURPLE : II. THE EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON THE BLEACHING OF VISUAL PURPLE BY LIGHT.
The temperature coefficient of the bleaching of visual purple by light is 1.00 over a range of 30 degrees. This indicates that the monomolecular course of the reaction represents a real chemical process, as opposed to a possible diffusion process, and that the reaction is probably simple in nature.
