), superscript s to surface reaction constant (h
À1
) and
superscript d to desorption constant (h
À1
); C is the aqueous concentration (μM); S t is the abundance of reactive sites per liter of
solution (μM); K is an adsorption constant (μM
À1
); N j is the total
number of primary products formed directly from the parent; N m is
the total number of species that inhibit the reaction of the parent
