Measurements have been made of the ultrasonic absorption and the velocity of propagation in a number of liquefied gases at temperatures from 0 to 50°C and over the frequency range 1 to 50 Mc/s. The observations in liquid carbon dioxide cover the major part of a relaxation region, centred about a frequency of approximately 10 Mc/s, and a full analysis is therefore possible in this case. The results are adequately described in terms of a relaxation of the total vibrational specific heat associated with a single relaxation time. For sulphur hexafluoride, nitrous oxide, cyclo propane and methyl chloride it was not possible to cover a substantial part of the relaxation region. In each case, however, the results are consistent with the assumption that the observed non-classical absorption is entirely due to vibrational relaxation and that the total vibrational specific heat relaxes with a single relaxation time. The corresponding characteristic frequencies are calculated and fall within the range 60 to 250 Mc/s. Comparisons are made between the values of the product, density ( ρ ) times relaxation time at constant temperature (ז T ), in the gaseous and liquid states for the above substances and for others, where adequate data is available. It is found that for a given temperature the ratio ( ρז T ) liquid ( ρז T ) gas is greater than, but close to, unity. It is concluded that vibrational transitions in liquids which are not highly associated occur by the mechanism of binary collisions between molecules. The quantity ( ρז T √ T ) –1 , which can be taken as a measure of the collision efficiency, increases with increasing temperature for non-polar liquids, but appears to depend very little on temperature for highly polar ones.

The effects of the electron scavengers nitrous oxide, nitromethane, carbon dioxide, sulphur hexafluoride and chloracetic acid on the yields of naphthalene excited states observed in pulse radiolysis of deaerated naphthalene-cyclohexane solutions have been investigated. The excited-state yields were reduced by all the solutes examined although they showed marked differences in their effects on the formation of singlet and triplet excited naphthalene. It is proposed that in the absence of a second solute naphthalene excited states are produced as a result of electron and positive charge scavenging by naphthalene followed by the ion-recombination reaction Naph + + Naph - -> b s (or b ' s ) 1 Naph* + b t (or b ' s ) 3 Naph*, where b s and b t are the number of singlet and triplet excited states of naphthalene formed initially per geminate ion-pair recombination and b ' s and b t are the corresponding efficiencies per free ion-pair recombination. The concentration dependences of the singlet yield G( 1 Naph)*, the triplet yield formed directly on ion recombination, G( 3 Naph*) r , and the total triplet yield, G( 3 Naph*) = G( 3 Naph*) r + ^ t G( 1 Naph*) reported in parts II and III of this series can be fitted to the expressions G( 1 Naph*) = b ' s G gi {α1/2_ [Naph]1/2 /1+α1/2_[Naph]1/2}{α1/2_ [Naph]1/2 /1+α1/2_[Naph]1/2}, G( 3 Naph*) = B ' t G fi + B t G gi >{α1/2_ [Naph]1/2 /1+α1/2_[Naph]1/2}{α1/2_ [Naph]1/2 /1+α1/2_[Naph]1/2}, using the following parameters: G fi = 0.15, G gi = 3.9, a_ = 3.291/mol, a + = 50001/mol, b 8 = 0.863, b ' s = 1.22, B t = b t + (fi t b s = 1.34 and B ' t = b ' t + (j) t b ' s = 1.89. Of the various competing electron scavengers investigated only the results of the nitromethane system at [CH 3 NO 2 ] > 10 -2 mol/l could be explained solely in terms of a simple competition for free and geminate ions by the two solutes. However, it was found that the nitrous oxide and carbon dioxide systems could be rationalized on a similar model by taking account of possible secondary ion reactions and/or excited state formation as a result of ion recombination between Naph + and the negative ion of the competing scavenger. The secondary process occurring in the sulphur hexafluoride and chloracetic systems are more complex and an empirical fit of the data was not possible.

AbstractGreenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from rivers and lakes have been shown to significantly contribute to global carbon and nitrogen cycling. In spatiotemporal-variable and human-impacted rivers in the grassland region, simultaneous carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide emissions and their relationships under the different land use types are poorly documented. This research estimated greenhouse gas (CO2, CH4, N2O) emissions in the Xilin River of Inner Mongolia of China using direct measurements from 18 field campaigns under seven land use type (such as swamp, sand land, grassland, pond, reservoir, lake, waste water) conducted in 2018. The results showed that CO2 emissions were higher in June and August, mainly affected by pH and DO. Emissions of CH4 and N2O were higher in October, which were influenced by TN and TP. According to global warming potential, CO2 emissions accounted for 63.35% of the three GHG emissions, and CH4 and N2O emissions accounted for 35.98% and 0.66% in the Xilin river, respectively. Under the influence of different degrees of human-impact, the amount of CO2 emissions in the sand land type was very high, however, CH4 emissions and N2O emissions were very high in the artificial pond and the wastewater, respectively. For natural river, the greenhouse gas emissions from the reservoir and sand land were both low. The Xilin river was observed to be a source of carbon dioxide and methane, and the lake was a sink for nitrous oxide.
