carbinol form of the dye. The kinetics of the reaction can be monitored due to the carbocation form of the dye by measuring the decrease in absorbance at the wavelength corresponding to the absorption maximum(λmax). The hydrolysis is carried out by using a large excess of NaOH (more than 10-fold) with respect to the substratecrystal violet such that the reaction (CV+ + OH-↔ CVOH) obey the pseudo-first order reaction rate equation -d[CV+]/dt = kw[CV+][OH-]=k[CV+] Where k=kw[OH-] is the pseudo-first
