Apparatus for the mass spectrometric study of rapid gas reactions in reflected shock waves is described. This apparatus has been applied to the thermal decomposition of 2% N2O in Kr at total gas concentrations of about 1.6 × 10−6 mole cm−3, in the temperature range 1800 to 2800 °K. The principal products of the reaction were found to be N2, O2, NO, and O. The rate coefficient for the unimolecular decomposition of N2O was calculated from the experimental data, and the rates of the secondary reactions between O and N2O were estimated. The possibility of the occurrence of a "weak collision" mechanism in the unimolecular reaction of N2O is discussed.

The partial equilibrium state following the branched-chain explosion of shock-heated rich H2/O2/diluent mixtures contains a high concentration of H atoms. The conditions under which this state can be used as a source of H atoms for the study of elementary reactions have been investigated. A small amount of NH3 was added to H2/O2/inert gas mixtures in order to measure the rate of the reaction H + NH3 → H2 + NH2. The pseudo-first order decay of NH3 in an approximately ten-fold excess of H atoms was followed by a time-of-flight mass spectrometer which sampled from the reflected shock region in a shock tube. The rate coefficient for this reaction, determined over the temperature range 1500–2150 °K, is 1013.44±0.10 exp −(17 400 ± 1 300 cal mol−1)/RT cm3 mol−1 s−1.It is pointed out that, under certain stated conditions, the method can also be extended to study the rates of elementary reactions involving O atoms and OH radicals. From our experiments, upper limits on the rate coefficients of the reactions OH + NH3 → H2O + NH2 and O + NH3 → OH + NH2 over the temperature range 1620–1920 °K are 8 × 109T0.08 exp (−1100/RT) and 1 × 1013 exp (−6600/RT), respectively.

The rates of production of methane and butane in the pyrolysis of ethane have been measured over the temperature range 550–620 °C and at pressures of 40–600 mm. At high pressure the rates of formation of both products were first order in ethane, but below 200 mm the first-order rate coefficients decreased. The ratio of methane to butane was consistent with the interpretation that methane is a measure of the initiation reaction and that the combination and disproportionation of ethyl radicals is the main termination step. The order of the decomposition of the ethyl radical with respect to ethane varied between 0.38 and 0.59. The results are discussed in terms of the mechanism of the overall process.
