Abstract:
A discharge-flow reactor combined with modulated molecular beam mass spectrometry technique was employed to determine the rate constants of H-atom reactions with hydrogen sulfide and thiirane. The rate constants for both reactions were determined at a total pressure of 2 Torr from 220 to 950 K under pseudo-first-order conditions by monitoring either consumption of H atoms in excess of H2S (C4H4S) or the molecular species in excess of atomic hydrogen. For H + H2S reaction, a suggested previously strong curvature of the Arrhenius plot was confirmed: kl = 8.7 × 10-13 × (T/298)2.87 × exp(-125/T) cm3 molecule-1 s-1 with a conservative uncertainty of 15% at all temperatures. Non-Arrhenius behavior was also observed for the reaction of H-atom with C2H4S, with the experimental rate constant data being best fitted to a sum of two exponential functions: k2 = 1.85 × 10-10 exp(-1410/T) + 4.17 × 10-12 exp(-242/T) cm3 molecule-1 s-1 with an independent of temperature uncertainty of 15%.

Metals like palladium, platinum, and nickel are commonly used in their solid forms — fine powder on an inert surface. As these catalysts remain insoluble in the reaction mixture, they are referred to as heterogeneous catalysts.

02:14SN2 Reaction: Kinetics
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...

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...
