Abstract:In the Hg-sensitized photolysis of H2 in the presence
of C2H4 the sensitizer Hg is consumed under
formation
of a metastable compound. The rate of formation and the
steady-state concentration of this compound have
been studied as a function of Hg, H2, and
C2H4 concentration, absorbed light intensity,
temperature, and in
the presence of radical scavengers. All these experiments ask for
the participation of HgH and C2H5 in
the
formation of the Hg compound. We therefore suggest that these two
radicals combine unde… Show more
“…Photoexcited Hg atoms will likewise react with ethylene. 193 Here the product is HHgC 2 H 5 which appears to be formed by the combination of HgH and ethyl radicals. A theoretical study has been made on the reaction of cadmium and mercury atoms in their 1 S, 3 P and 1 P states with SiH 4 .…”
