Abstract:
In this work, we present the reaction rate and dissociation of formaldehyde H2CO, where we found three possible pathways for the singlet state (1A), and two for triplet state (3A). The optimized geometries and frequencies were determined at B3LYP/6-311g(2d,d,p) internal to CBS-QB3 methods. The reaction rates are calculated using the APUAMA code, applying the tunneling correction of Wigner, Eckart, and small curvature transmission coefficient (SCT), and the total reaction rate is presented in the Arrhenius form as [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], for singlet and triplet state, respectively. Graphical Abstract PES for singlet and triplet formaldehyde.

Temperature Dependence on Reaction Rate
Atoms, molecules, or ions must collide before they can react with each other. Atoms must be close together to form chemical bonds. This premise is the basis for a theory that explains many observations regarding chemical kinetics, including factors affecting reaction rates.
The collision theory is based on the postulates that (i) the reaction rate is proportional to the rate of reactant collisions, (ii) the reacting species collide in an orientation allowing contact between...
