Mass Spectral Studies of Kinetics behind Shock Waves. I. Thermal Dissociation of Chlorine

Abstract: The coupling of a shock tube to a time-of-flight mass spectrometer for the determination of kinetic data is described whereby analysis is performed every 25 μsec. The rate of dissociation of Cl2 has been measured over the temperature range 1700°—3200°K under essentially isothermal and isobaric conditions with the observed rate constants in fair agreement with those obtained by the spectroscopic technique. The observed temperature dependence is less than predicted by simple collision theory with an apparent act… Show more

“…The perpendicular alignment between the shock tube and the mass spectrometer drift tube substantially reduces the drift tube overpressure effect encountered in other apparatus (Diesen and Felmlee (1963), Ryason (1967)). The detailed description and design considerations of the present apparatus are presented elsewhere (Le Trung (1972), Krizancic et al (1975)).…”

“…The high temperature data fall in three groups. The early measurements of Hiraoka and Hardwick [92] and Diesen and Felmlee [93] indicate values of k 9b an order of magnitude higher than the bulk of the data. The high values have been attributed to boundary layer effects and limitations in detection accuracy and were disregarded by both Lloyd [91] and Baulch et al [30].…”

“…They demonstrated that the technique can be used in chemical kinetics studies. [1][2][3] During the 1960s, some TOF-MS shock tube studies have been published by Diesen and Felmlee, 4 Diesen, 5, 6 Modica,7 and Dove and Moulton. 8 The latter reported that ions formed inside the shock tube by chemical ionization can result in unresolved noise.…”
