MASS SPECTRAL STUDIES OF KINETICS BEHIND SHOCK WAVES DIRECT SAMPLING AND FLASH PHOTOLYSIS OF NO2.
Abstract
The experimental coupling of flash photolysis with a shock tube/TOF mass spectrometer is described whereby photo-initiated reactions can be studied over a broad range of temperatures. From the photodecomposition of NO2, the rate constant for the reaction O + NO2 yields NO +O2 was determined at 1035 and 298 K and found to be 6.5 x 10 to the ninth power and 2 x 10 to the ninth power l/mole-sec respectively. These results are in essential agreement with previous studies and support the feasibility of the approach.
