Absolute rate constants for the reaction of the hydrated electron and hydroxyl radical with ozone in aqueous solution have been determined by using pulse radiolysis techniques. The rate constant, k(e/sub aq//sup -/ + O/sub 3/) = (3.60 +- 0.14) x 10/sup 10/ dm/sup 3/ mol/sup -1/ s/sup -1/, was measured in the pH range 4.1 to 6.05 by following the decay of e/sub aq//sup -/ at 600 nm. The rate constant k(OH. + O/sub 3/) = (3.02 +- 0.25) x 10/sup 9/ dm/sup 3/ mol/sup -1/ s/sup -1/, was obtained by a competition method at pH 6.7 with acetate ions as the OH. radical scavengers. The ozone concentration for both studies varied from 0.05 x 10/sup -3/ to 0.50 x 10/sup -3/ mol dm/sup -3/.
