PHOTOCHEMICAL REACTIONS WITH SOME INORGANIC COLLOIDS AS ACTIVE AGENTS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF LIGHT IN VARIOUS STATES OF POLARISATION PART XV. PHOTOCHEMICAL REDUCTION OF CERIC BORATE SOL WITH GLUCOSE AND LAEVULOSE

Photochemical reduction of the eerie borate sol with glucose and lavenlose has been studied in light. Effect of varying concentrations of the reductants and the sol, intensity of radiations, temperature and the in influence of polarised light and also the effect of insulating the sol on the light reaction have been investigated and an equation has been developed which can explain the characteristic features of the observed reaction.
