Abstract
The rate laws describing the dissolution of calcite in aqueous solution under conditions of pH 7 are established, and, for the first time, it is shown that under conditions of high mass transport, the reaction of H+ with CaCO3 is controlled by a surface process rather than by the rate of convection/diffusion in the solution.Keywords
