Abstract:
In order to obtain reliable kinetic parameters, it is required to measure the reaction kinetics of important heterogeneous reactions at ambient relative humidity (RH). In this study, the uptake coefficients and HONO yields for the heterogeneous reaction of NO2 on kaolin and hematite were measured at RH from 7% to 74% and at ambient pressure in the dark using a coated-wall flow tube reactor. The initial true uptake coefficient (γt,ini) of NO2 at RH 7% was measured to be (1.44 ± 0.10) × 10(-7) and (1.58 ± 0.13) × 10(-6) on kaolin and hematite, respectively, while it decreased notably on both minerals, accompanied by an increase of HONO yields, as RH increased. The average γt,ini at 32-74% RH was (4.42 ± 1.17) × 10(-8) and (2.83 ± 0.84) × 10(-7) on kaolin and hematite, respectively. The corresponding mean HONO yield was (36.0 ± 16.1)% and (75.9 ± 3.32)%, respectively.

In a chemical reaction, a relationship exists between the concentration of reactants and the rate at which the reaction proceeds. The study to measure this relationship is known as the kinetics of a chemical reaction. Kinetic studies are used to deduce the rate law of a chemical reaction, which provides information about the species involved during the transition state of the rate-determining step. Thus, kinetic studies help to derive the mechanism of a...

For gas-phase reactions, the equilibrium constant may be expressed in terms of either the molar concentrations (Kc) or partial pressures (Kp) of the reactants and products. A relation between these two K values may be simply derived from the ideal gas equation and the definition of molarity. According to the ideal gas equation:
