Description

The kinetics of chlorine isotope exchange between chloramine-B (CAB) and chloride was studied using ion-exchange separation and tracer technique. McKay's plots are linear. The exchange reaction is fast in acidic medium, very slow in neutral medium and does not take place in alkaline medium. In the acidic range the exchange is maximum at pH 3.3. The rate of exchange decreases at pH >3.3 and <3.3. The order with respect to CAB and chloride is unity. The order with respect to [H+] is unity at pH>5. Activation energy and activation entropy for this exchange reaction were calculated. (author) 11 refs.; 6 figs
