Fig. 6. Soil Mn dissolution as affected by 16 organic compounds (organics). Relative Mn dissolution = 100[(organics-extractable Mn - KCl-extractable Mn)/KCl-extractable Mn]. Experimental conditions: initial pH 4.5 in 0.1 M KCl, 2-h shaking, 80 mg Mn kg-1 soil was extracted by KCl alone

Fig. 7. Ultraviolet spectra of (A) 100 µM hydroquinone in 0.1 M KCl, pH 5.0 with and without 1.00 g Wahiawa soil after different equilibration time intervals and filtration. Note the change from hydroquinone (curve 1) to p-benzoquinone (curves 2–5). In contrast, UV spectra of (B) 50 µM tannic acid in 0.1 M KCl, pH 5.0 with and without 1.00 g Wahiawa soil showed little change in shape but a sharp decrease in absorbance intensity (an indication of polymerization or adsorption) with the reaction time
