The rates of reaction of halide ions with ethylene oxide in neutral aqueous solution and the rate of hydrolysis of ethylene oxide in acid solution have been measured and the activation energies determined. From these data and from the ratio of glycol to chlorohydrin formed when ethylene oxide reacts with excess aqueous hydrogen halide, the rates of the acid-catalyzed addition of halide ions to ethylene oxide at 25 °C. have been estimated.
