The slow reaction between H2 and N 2 0 has been studied in detail at 540 and 600°C. The order in H2 is effectively zero at both temperatures and the order in N 2 0 is 1.2 k 0.2. Addition of helium increases the rate very slightly at H2 = N 2 0 = 100Torr,$ but a greater effect is observed as the pressure of reactants decreases. Termination at the vessel surface, and by gas-phase recombination of H atoms can be eliminated, and is considered to occur through the reaction sequence (7), which competes with the propagation reaction (3), followed by (8).

The oxidation of (CH3)2CHCH0 has been studied over a wide range of mixture composition at 440°C in an aged boric-acid-coated vessel. By the use of the pressure against time profiles, rate constants kl = 0.120f0.010 dm3 mol-'s-' and k4 = (1.83 kO.10) x lo6 dm3 mol-l s'l have been obtained.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
