Computational mechanistic investigation of the Fe + CO₂ → FeO + CO reaction

Abstract

<p>We report a computational study of the mechanism and determination of rate constants of the Fe + CO₂ → FeO + CO reaction, in the 1000–3000 K temperature range, at...</p>

CO2 and O2 oxidized 2.7 Ga micrometeorites in two stages suggesting a >32% CO2 atmosphere

“…Next, the surrounding air properties (air compositions and density) are imported from the photochemical model according to the MM's altitude. The chemical module then calculates the MM's mass and composition changes due to reactions based on the surrounding air properties, the MM's temperature, and the chemical reaction rate constants from interfacial reaction theories of metal (Abuluwefa et al, 1997;Himmel et al, 1953;Smirnov, 2008;Vicentini et al, 2020;Young, 2008)…”
