Carbon kinetic isotope effect in the oxidation of methane by hydroxyl

  • 1. Argonne National Lab., IL

Description

The carbon kinetic isotope effect in the reaction of CH4 with OH has an experimentally measured value of 1.003. The measurement was performed using a static system in which the source of OH was the gas-phase photolysis of H2O2 with ultraviolet light produced by a high-pressure mercury arc lamp. Implications for the tropospheric cycle of CH4 are considered briefly. 4 references, 2 tables
