Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor

Surface effects in the reactions of dissociated hydrogen–oxygen systems and the products condensed therefrom have been investigated. Water vapor at about 0.1 Torr was streamed at high velocity through an electrodeless discharge confined in tubes of different materials or with various surface coatings. In all cases the products trapped in liquid nitrogen evolved oxygen gas on warming, but the relative amounts varied considerably from one type of surface to another. In some cases there was clear evidence that the walls of discharge tube were attacked by hydrogen atom bombardment. The decomposition, both thermal and electrical, of pure hydrogen peroxide vapor was studied likewise. The pyrolysis products gave off very little oxygen on warming. By contrast the products from electrical decomposition, even at low power level, evolved much oxygen, most of it above the melting point.It is concluded that there is always some decomposition of hydrogen peroxide in the trapped products. However, this does not seem sufficient to account for all the evolved oxygen; at least not in the case of dissociated water vapor.

Water vapor dissociated by an electric discharge and passed into a cold trap yielded products which gave off oxygen at temperatures above −120°C. and at room temperature consisted of hydrogen peroxide and water. With products formed under given conditions, the amount of oxygen evolved with warming was proportional to the total amount of product and independent of the warming procedure. The evolution proceeded to completion at −78°C. Water was found at all trap temperatures between −78°C. and −195°C. Hydrogen peroxide was formed only if the trap temperature was below −120°C., and oxygen was evolved only from products formed below −150°C. The yields of water, hydrogen peroxide, and evolved oxygen all increased with decreasing trap temperature. As the volume of reaction chambers inserted between the discharge tube and the trap was increased, the yield of hydrogen peroxide decreased continuously, while the yield of water at first decreased and then increased to a limiting value. Packing a given reaction chamber with glass wool drastically reduced the yield of hydrogen peroxide, but had little effect on the yield of water. Packing the trap itself had only a slight effect on the yields. The results are compared with those obtained by others with the H–O2 system at low temperatures, and a mechanism is proposed to correlate the two systems.

Concave Grating

The spectra of normal and heavy water vapor have been observed under high resolution in the region 1220–1240 Å. One band of H2O and two bands of D2O have been measured and analyzed. The spectra were taken in the ninth order of a 35-ft concave-grating spectrograph and the accuracy of measurement of the sharper lines is estimated to be about ± 0.005 Å. The results of the analyses are summarized below.[Formula: see text]These bands have been assigned as belonging to the first member of one of the two np Rydberg series.

High Concentrations

The absorption of ultraviolet light between 3000 and 4000 Å by solutions of hydrogen peroxide in water and of deuterium peroxide in heavy water has been measured at various concentrations. Both peroxides show slight but real deviations from Beer's law at high concentrations. Substitution of hydrogen by deuterium shifts the absorption continuum by about 390 cm.−1 towards shorter wave lengths. This shift is of the same order as that calculated from the difference in zero-point energy of the two isotopic molecules.
