The chemiluminescence behavior during redox reaction of potassium ferricyanide and potassium ferrocyanide with hydrogen peroxide in alkaline medium is reported. The reactions were also tested for their chemiluminescence behavior in presence of activators like alkaline earth metal ions and common chemical acid base indicators like phenolphthalein and methyl orange. The study of experimental parameters affecting the redox process and detection was performed using standard chemiluminescence (CL) setup. The CL glow curve of reaction at different concentration has been recorded for better understanding of mechanism of redox process. A Plausible mechanism of the reaction based on CL behavior has been suggested.
