Modeling Cl2 formation from aqueous NaCl particles: Evidence for interfacial reactions and importance of Cl2 decomposition in alkaline solution

Gas-phase molecular halogen formation from NaCl and NaBr aerosols: when are interface reactions important?

Unique interface reactions at the surface of sea-salt particles have been suggested as an important source of photolyzable gas-phase halogen species in the troposphere. Many factors influence the relative importance of interface chemistry compared to aqueous-phase chemistry. The Model of Aerosol, Gas, and Interfacial Chemistry (MAGIC 2.0) is used to study the influence of interface reactions on...

Production of gas phase NO2 and halogens from the photolysis of thin water films containing nitrate, chloride and bromide ions at room temperature.

Nitrate and halide ions coexist in particles generated in marine regions, around alkaline dry lakes, and in the Arctic snowpack. Although the photochemistry of nitrate ions in bulk aqueous solution is well known, there is recent evidence that it may be more efficient at liquid-gas interfaces, and that the presence of other ions in solution may enhance interfacial reactivity. This study examines...

Investigation of Variations of Isotropic g- and A- Values with Orientation of Trapped O2−, N2− and Cl2− Radicals in KCl and NaCl Crystals

Synthesis, characterization, antibacterial activity and molecular modeling studies of Ni(II) and Zn(II) complexes with phenylpyridylformamidine ligand

The Ni(II) and Zn(II) complexes with phenylpyridylformamidine (PhPyF) ligand, [Ni(PhPyF)Cl2] and [Zn(PhPyF)Cl2], have been prepared and investigated using different chemical techniques such as elemental analysis, molar conductance, FT-IR, UV-vis spectra and magnetic moment. The obtained chemical analysis data showed the formation of 1:1 (metal: ligand) ratio. The square planar and tetrahedral g...

A Laser Flash Photolysis Kinetic Study of Reactions of the Cl2 Radical Anion with Oxygenated Hydrocarbons in Aqueous Solution

A laser photolysis–long path laser absorption (LP-LPLA) experiment has been used to determine the rate constants for H-atom abstraction reactions of the dichloride radical anion (Cl2) in aqueous solution. From direct measurements of the decay of Cl2 in the presence of different reactants at pH 5 4 and I 5 0.1 M the following rate constants at T 5 298 K were derived: methanol, (5.1 6 0.3) · 104 ...
