The effects of ultrasound frequency and power on the activation energy in Si-KOH reaction system

The activation energy is the minimum amount of energy required to initiate a reaction. It is one of the important indexes for appraising a reaction. The chemical reaction rate is closely related to the value of activation energy, and reducing activation energy is propitious to promoting a chemical reaction. In the present paper, the relationship between the activation energy in Si-KOH reaction system and the ultrasound frequency and power has been discussed for the first time. The range of ultrasound frequency and power is 40-100kHz （interval by 20kHz） and 10-50W （interval by 10W）, respectively. The experimental clata indicate that the activation energy decreases with the increasing ultrasound power. Comparing with the activation energy without ultrasound irradiation, the results in our paper indicate that ultrasound irradiation could reduce the activation energy in Si-KOH reaction system and increase the reaction rate.     

The surface temperature dependence of the inelastic scattering and dissociation of hydrogen molecules from metal surfaces

High-dimensional, wave packet calculations have been carried out to model the surface temperature dependence of rovibrationally inelastic scattering and dissociation of hydrogen molecules from the Cu(111) surface. Both the molecule and the vibrating surface are treated fully quantum-mechanically. It is found, in agreement with experimental data, that the surface temperature dependence of a variety of dynamical processes has an Arrhenius form with an activation energy dependent on molecular translational energy and on the initial and final molecular states. The activation energy increases linearly with decreasing translational energy below the threshold energy. Above threshold the behavior is more complex. A quasianalytical model is proposed that faithfully reproduces the Arrhenius law and the translational energy dependence of the activation energy. In this model, it is essential to include quantized energy transfer between the surface and the molecule. It further predicts that for any process characterized by a large energy barrier and multiphonon excitation, the linear change in activation energy up to threshold has slope-1. This explains successfully the universal nature of the unit slope found experimentally for H2 and D2 dissociation on Cu.     

The excitation function for Li + HF → LiF + H at collision energies below 80 meV

We have measured the dependence of the relative integral cross section of the reaction Li + HF → LiF + H on the collision energy (excitation function) using crossed molecular beams. By varying the intersection angle of the beams from 37° to 90° we covered the energy range 25 meV ≤ E(tr) ≤ 131 meV. We observe a monotonous rise of the excitation function with decreasing energy over the entire energy range indicating that a possible translational energy threshold to the reaction is significantly smaller than 25 meV. The steep rise is quantitatively recovered by a Langevin-type excitation function based on a vanishing threshold and a mean interaction potential energy ∝R(-2.5) where R is the distance between the reactants. To date all threshold energies deduced from ab initio potentials and zero-point vibrational energies are at variance with our results, however, our findings support recent quantum scattering calculations that predict significant product formation at collision energies far below these theoretical thresholds.     

A new method to explain the model dependence of apparent activation energy derived from a single nonisothermal dynamic curve

A single nonisothermal dynamic curve can be relatively correctly described by several reaction models in model-fitting approach, which yields model-dependent kinetic parameters. The model dependence of the apparent activation energy is explained mathematically by a new method which is developed from the peak property method in this paper. It has been found that the apparent activation energy rises linearly with the increase of the order of nth-order and Avrami-Erofeev reaction models, which can be verified by data from the literature and can explain some phenomena appeared in some articles. Moreover, the apparent activation energies derived from fitting a single nonisothermal dynamic curve to nth-order and Avrami-Erofeev reaction models can be correlated through the activation energy of 1st-order model.     

氧化锆基固体电解质材料与温度无关的离子电导活化能

氧化锆(ZrO2)基固体电解质材料的离子电导率随温度的变化关系呈现非线性Arrhenius特征;相应地,由经典的Arrhenius公式计算得到的电导活化能是一个与温度有关的参数.本文通过对实验获得的几种Y2O3稳定立方ZrO2(YSZ) 材料的电导率－温度关系的分析,对经典的Arrhenius公式进行了修正.由修正后的Arrhenius公式计算得到的电导活化能是一个与温度无关的常数.此外,还进一步借助于物理化学中的过渡状态理论,从材料离子导电机制出发对这一与温度无关的电导活化能的合理性进行了讨论,发现这一活化能在数值上与理论计算结果吻合得很好.

Accurate quantum mechanical calculations of differential and integral cross sections and rate constant for the O+OH reaction using an ab initio potential energy surface

The authors report accurate quantum mechanical studies of the O+OH reaction on the improved Xu-Xie-Zhang-Lin-Guo potential energy surface. The differential cross section was obtained at several energies near the reaction threshold using a time-independent method. The dominant forward and backward peaks in the angular distribution are consistent with a complex-forming mechanism, which is also confirmed by the extensive rotational excitation in the O2 product. However, the asymmetry of these peaks suggests a significant nonstatistical component. The initial state (upsilon i=0, j i=0) specified integral cross section, which was calculated up to 1.15 eV of collision energy using the Chebyshev wave packet method, shows no energy threshold and decreases with the increasing collision energy, consistent with the barrierless nature of the reaction. The resulting rate constant exhibits a negative temperature dependence for T>100 K and decays as the temperature is lowered, in qualitative agreement with available experimental data.

二级反应速率常数与活化能计算问题的讨论

In this paper, we discussed several problems on calculation of reaction rate constant in physical chemistry reference books. When calculating the rate constant k of the second-order reaction, we should make the half-life formula consistent with the reaction stoichiometric equation. And when calculating the activation energy with Arrhenius formula for ideal gas-phase reaction, attention should be paid to identifying the difference between the reaction rate constant k_c and k_p, as well as the difference between corresponding activation energy E_ac and E_ap. It is beneficial for students to have a correct understanding in calculation.     

H+ versus D+ transfer from HOD+ to CO2: bond-selective chemistry and the anomalous effect of bending excitation

Reactions of HOD(+) with CO(2) have been studied for HOD(+) in its ground state, and with one quantum of excitation in each of its vibrational modes: (001)--predominantly OH stretch, 0.396 eV; (010)--bend, 0.153 eV; and (100)--predominantly OD stretch, 0.293 eV. Integral cross sections and product recoil velocities were recorded for collision energies from threshold to 3 eV. The cross sections for both H(+) and D(+) transfer rise with increasing collision energy from threshold to ～1 eV, then become weakly dependent of the collision energy. All three vibrational modes enhance the total reactivity, but quite mode specifically. The H(+) transfer reaction is enhanced by OH stretch excitation, whereas OD stretch excitation has little effect. Conversely, the D(+) transfer reaction is enhanced by OD stretch excitation, while the OH stretch has little effect. Excitation of the bend strongly enhances both channels. The effects of the stretch excitations are consistent with previous studies of neutral HOD mode-selective chemistry, and can be at least qualitatively understood in terms of a late barrier to product formation. The fact that bend excitation produces the largest overall enhancement is surprising, because this is the lowest energy excitation, and is not obviously connected with the reaction coordinates for either H(+) or D(+) transfer. A rationalization in terms of the effects of water distortion on the potential surface is proposed.

Excitation-energy dependence of the phosphorescence quantum yields of pyridinecarboxaldehyde vapors

Emission and excitation spectra of 3- and 4-pyridinecarboxaldehyde vapors have been measured at different pressures down to 10(-2)Torr. The phosphorescence quantum yield measured at low pressure as a function of excitation energy is nearly constant in the range of excitation energy corresponding to the S1(n, pi*) state, but it decreases abruptly at the S2(pi, pi*) threshold. The onset of the abrupt decrease of the yield corresponds to the location of the S2 absorption origin of each molecule, indicating that the nonradiative pathway depends on the type of the excited singlet state to which the molecule is initially excited. The relaxation processes are discussed based on the pressure and excitation-energy dependence of the phosphorescence quantum yield.

H+ versus D+) transfer from HOD+ to N2: mode- and bond-selective effects

Reactions of HOD(+) with N(2) have been studied for HOD(+) in its ground state and with one quantum of excitation in each of its vibrational modes: (001)--predominately OH stretch, 0.396 eV, (010)--bend, 0.153 eV, and (100)--predominately OD stretch, 0.293 eV. Integral cross sections and product recoil velocities were recorded for collision energies from threshold to 4 eV. The cross sections for both H(+) and D(+) transfer rise slowly from threshold with increasing collision energy; however, all three vibrational modes enhance reaction much more strongly than equivalent amounts of collision energy and the enhancements remain large even at high collision energy, where the vibration contributes less than 10% of the total energy. Excitation of the OH stretch enhances H(+) transfer by a factor of ～5, but the effect on D(+) transfer is only slightly larger than that from an equivalent increase in collision energy, and smaller than the effect from the much lower energy bend excitation. Similarly, OD stretch excitation strongly enhances D(+) transfer, but has essentially no effect beyond that of the additional energy on H(+) transfer. The effects of the two stretch vibrations are consistent with the expectation that stretching the bond that is broken in the reaction puts momentum in the correct coordinate to drive the system into the exit channel. From this perspective it is quite surprising that bend excitation also results in large (factor of 2) enhancements of both H(+) and D(+) transfer channels, such that its effect on the total cross section at collision energies below ～2 eV is comparable to those from the two stretch modes, even though the bend excitation energy is much smaller. For collision energies above ～2 eV, the vibrational effects become approximately proportional to the vibrational energy, though still much larger than the effects of equivalent addition of collision energy. Measurements of the product recoil velocity distributions show that reaction is direct at all collision energies, with roughly half the products in a sharp peak corresponding to stripping dynamics and half with a broad and approximately isotropic recoil velocity distribution. Despite the large effects of vibrational excitation on reactivity, the effects on recoil dynamics are small, indicating that vibrational excitation does not cause qualitative changes in the reaction mechanism or in the distribution of reactive impact parameters.

Photochemistry of vinyl chloride physisorbed on Ag(111) through molecular anion formation induced by substrate electron attachment

Pulsed 266 and 355 nm ultraviolet laser irradiation of monolayer vinyl chloride physisorbed on Ag(111) results in molecular dissociation leading to C2H3 and Cl, much of which is adsorbed to the surface. On the basis of observations made on dissociation dependences on chlorine isotope and photon energy, it is deduced that upon excitation vinyl chloride forms a transient negative ion through a substrate mediated, vertical electron attachment mechanism. The anion either dissociates or relaxes through energy transfer to the neutral state causing the neutral molecule to desorb. The threshold for vertical attachment of substrate electron is estimated to be 0.8 eV below the vacuum level, in agreement with the experimentally observed wavelength dependence in photoinduced dissociation. Chemisorbed Cl on the Ag(111) surface inhibits the photodissociation process by increasing the substrate work function and consequently the energy threshold for electron vertical attachment. Upon heating the Ag(111) surface, adsorbed vinyl combines to produce 1,3-butadiene in a first order, diffusion limited, process with an activation energy of 10.4 kcal/mol.
