Reactions of alkoxy and hydroxy radicals generated photochemically from hydroperoxide molecules

In the present work as well as HRO^. radicals were generated in the photochemical interaction of 1,2-benzanthracene with -ethyl phenyl hydroperoxide /HROOH/ in C₆H₆ and CCl₄ at 304 K. radicals were trapped by C₆H₆.

Kinetics of heterogeneous decomposition of hydrogen peroxide

The kinetics of the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide was studied in aqueous medium in the temperature range 25–40°C in the presence of Wofatit KPS-resin in the form of Cu(II)-ammine complex ions. The rate constant was deduced at various degrees of resin cross-linkage and different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide. The order of the decomposition reaction varied from first order to half order, i.e., the order of the reaction decreased with increasing the concentration of H₂O₂. The decomposition process was found to be a catalytic reaction which was controlled by the chemical reaction of H₂O₂ molecules with the active species inside the resin particles. The mechanism of the reaction can be summarized by the equation in which the subsequent reactions of the probable active complex are discussed.

The Hydrolysis of Protactinium(V) Studied by Capillary Diffusion

The mean diffusion coefficient of ²³³Pa has been measured simultaneously with those of ²²Na and ¹⁵²Eu in 0.5 M (Na, H)ClO₄ solutions with the pH ranging from 0.3 to 13, by the open-end capillary method optimized in order to obtain reproducible and reliable D values at T = 25°C. In the case of Eu(III), the results tend to give higher ₁₃ and ₁₄ hydrolysis constants than the values generally acccepted, but these data are probably affected by the formation of polynuclear or colloidal species as soon as the hydrolysis process is involved. For Pa(V), results are in agreement with the existence of the following two equilibria (I = 0.5 M, T = 25°C):
