Abstract: | The stoichiometry and kinetics of the reaction of NO2 with O3 at sub-ppm concentration level have been investigated as a function of temperature and relative humidity. The experiments were performed in a continuous flow reactor using chemiluminescent and wet chemical methods of analysis.The rate constant found can be described by the Arrhenius expression: % MathType!MTEF!2!1!+-% feaafiart1ev1aaatCvAUfeBSjuyZL2yd9gzLbvyNv2CaerbuLwBLn% hiov2DGi1BTfMBaeXatLxBI9gBaerbd9wDYLwzYbItLDharqqtubsr% 4rNCHbGeaGqiVu0Je9sqqrpepC0xbbL8F4rqqrFfpeea0xe9Lq-Jc9% vqaqpepm0xbba9pwe9Q8fs0-yqaqpepae9pg0FirpepeKkFr0xfr-x% fr-xb9adbaqaaeGaciGaaiaabeqaamaabaabaaGcbaGaaiikaiaaik% dacaGGUaGaaGyoaiaaiEdacqGHXcqScaaIWaGaaiOlaiaaigdacaaI% 0aGaaiykaiabgEna0kaaigdacaaIWaWaaWbaaSqabeaacqGHsislca% aIXaGaaG4maaaakiaabwgacaqG4bGaaeiCaiaacIcadaWcgaqaaiaa% cIcacqGHsislcaaIYaGaaGOnaiaaikdacaaIWaGaeyySaeRaaGyoai% aaicdacaGGPaaabaGaamivaiaacMcacaqGGaGaae4yaiaab2gadaah% aaWcbeqaaiaabodaaaGccaqGGaWaaSGbaeaacaqGTbGaae4BaiaabY% gacaqGLbGaae4yaiaabwhacaqGSbGaaeyzamaaCaaaleqabaGaaeyl% aiaabgdaaaaakeaacaqGZbWaaWbaaSqabeaacaqGTaGaaeymaaaaaa% aaaaaa!62A3![(2.97 pm 0.14) times 10^{ - 13} {text{exp}}({{( - 2620 pm 90)} mathord{left/ {vphantom {{( - 2620 pm 90)} {T){text{ cm}}^{text{3}} {text{ }}{{{text{molecule}}^{{text{ - 1}}} } mathord{left/ {vphantom {{{text{molecule}}^{{text{ - 1}}} } {{text{s}}^{{text{ - 1}}} }}} right. kern-nulldelimiterspace} {{text{s}}^{{text{ - 1}}} }}}}} right. kern-nulldelimiterspace} {T){text{ cm}}^{text{3}} {text{ }}{{{text{molecule}}^{{text{ - 1}}} } mathord{left/ {vphantom {{{text{molecule}}^{{text{ - 1}}} } {{text{s}}^{{text{ - 1}}} }}} right. kern-nulldelimiterspace} {{text{s}}^{{text{ - 1}}} }}}}] and are independent of the relative humidity. As commonly encountered in previous studies a lower-than-two reaction stoichiometry is observed.Heterogeneous reactions occurring at the reactor wall seem to be essential in the reaction mechanism. The NO3 wall conversion to NO2 and the N2O5 wall scavenging in the presence of H2O are suggested to account for the observed stoichiometric factors. |
