The rate of Co(III) reduction under inert atmosphere in the presence of p-toluic acid (PTA) and hydrobromide obeys the rate law d[Co(III)]/dt = k[Co(III)]2 [Co(II)]-1 [PTA] [HBr]. The proposed reaction mechanism involves the reduction of Co(III) by Br- ions and formation of a cation-radical from p-toluic acid. p-Xylene is attacked by bromine species and not directly by Co(III). The rate constants of Co(III) and Br- consumption as well as apparent activation energies were estimated.

The rates of the reaction of ferrocyanide and persulfate ions, in the presence of various concentrations of different alkali metal cations, have been measured at various temperatures and ionic strengths. The results are interpreted in terms of ion pairs and support the view that the actual reacting species are MFe(CN)6−3 and MS2O8−, where M is an alkali metal. This is similar to the situation found earlier for potassium salts of these ions. The rate constants obtained on this assumption increase gradually from lithium to cesium. Values are also obtained for the apparent activation energies of these reactions.

The kinetics of oxidation of thiocyanate to sulphate by aqueous iodine in the pH range 9.2-12.5 have been studied using a spectrophotometric stopped flow technique. The reaction is general base-catalysed, having the rate law ��������������������� -d[I2]a/dt = ([SCN-][I3-]/[I-]2)Σ kB[B] where [I2]a is the total analytical concentration of iodine, [B] is the concentration of base, and where the summation is taken over all bases present. Rate constants, kB, and activation energies have been measured for the bases, OH-, PO43- and CO32-. ��� A mechanism involving the initial steps ����������������� I2+SCN- ↔ ISCN+I- �����������������(rapid equilibrium) ������������� ISCN+H2O+B → HOSCN+I- + HB+ �����������(rate determining) followed by rapid reactions of HOSCN with itself or with iodine is proposed.

Abstract The kinetics of the alkaline hydrolysis of n-butyl acetate have been studied in water and in hydroalcoholic mixtures. The rate constants, activation energies, frequency factors, entropies, Gibbs free energies and enthalpies of activation have been determined. The radii of the activated com­ plexes have been calculated and related to their degree of solvation. A possible reaction mechanism is formulated.

Kinetic rate constants for the oxidation reactions of OH radicals with CH3SH (1), C2H5SH (2), n-C3H7SH (3) and iso-C3H7SH (4) under inert conditions (Ar) over the temperature range 252−430 K have been studied using the CBS-QB3 composite method. Kinetic rate constants under atmospheric pressure and in the fall-off regime have been estimated using transition state theory (TST) and statistical Rice–Ramsperger–Kassel–Marcus (RRKM) theory. Comparison with experiment confirms that in the OH-addition pathways 1−4 leading to the related products, the first bimolecular reaction step has effective negative activation energies around −2.61 to 3.70 kcal mol−1. Effective rate coefficients have been calculated according to a steady-state analysis of a two-step model reaction mechanism. As a result of the negative activation energies, pressures larger than 104 bar would be required to restore to some extent the validity of this approximation for all the channels. By comparison with experimental data, all our calculations for both the OH-addition and H-abstraction reaction pathways indicate that from a kinetic viewpoint and in line with the computed reaction energy barriers, the most favourable process is the OH-addition pathway to n-C3H7SH to yield the [ n-C3H7SH−OH]• species, whereas under thermodynamic control of the bimolecular reactions (R−SH+OH•), the most abundant product derived from the H-abstraction pathway will be the [ n-C3H7 S•+H2O] species.

The kinetics of liquid-phase isothermal esterification of POCl3 with 2-isopropylphenol and 4-isopropylphenol have been studied within the temperature intervals of 110 to 130 and 90 to 110 °C, respectively. The rate constants and activation energies of the individual steps of this three-step reaction have been calculated from the values measured. The reaction rates of the two isomers markedly differ: at 110 °C 4-isopropylphenol reacts faster by the factors of about 7 and 20 for k1 and k3, respectively. This finding can be utilized in preparation of mixed triaryl phosphates, since the alkylation mixture after reaction of phenol with propene contains an excess of 2-isopropylphenol over 4-isopropylphenol.

An investigation has been made of the kinetics of hydration of tricalcium silicate at several temperatures in a large excess of water in the presence of various added ions. The rate data have been interpreted by a reaction mechanism which involves: (a) the first order hydration of tricalcium silicate to form an intermediate product, 1.5CaO•SiO2, which can react by two pathways, (b) the direct first order decomposition of intermediate, 1.5CaO•SiO2, to form lime and silica or (b′) complexing of intermediate with silica and subsequent decomposition to form lime and silica. This reaction mechanism predicts the rate of production of base during the hydration. The effect of various added ions is interpreted in terms of the proposed mechanism.Rate constants and activation energies for the various steps in the proposed mechanism are reported.

Abstract Generally, adding a certain amount of an additive to pulverized coal can promote its combustion performance. In this paper, the effect of CaO on the combustion characteristics and kinetic behavior of semi-coke was studied by thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. The results show that adding proper amount of CaO can reduce the ignition temperature of semi-coke and increase the combustion rate of semi-coke; with the increase in CaO content, the combustion rate of semi-coke increases first and then decreases, and the results of TG analysis showed that optimal addition amount of CaO is 2 wt%. The apparent activation energy of CaO with different addition amounts of CaO was calculated by Coats–Redfern integration method. The apparent activation energy of semi-coke in the combustion reaction increases first and then decreases with the increase in CaO addition. The apparent activation energies of different samples at different conversion rates were calculated by Flynn–Wall–Ozawa integral method. It was found that the apparent activation energies of semi-coke during combustion reaction decreased with the increase in conversion.

Platelet aggregation kinetics, according to the particle collision theory, generally assumed to apply, ought to conform to a second order type of rate law. But published data on the time-course of ADP-induced single platelet recruitment into aggregates were found not to do so and to lead to abnormal second order rate constants much larger than even their theoretical upper bounds. The data were, instead, found to fit a first order type of rate law rather well with rate constants in the range of 0.04 - 0.27 s-1. These results were confirmed in our laboratory employing gelfiltered calf platelets. Thus a mechanism much more complex than hithertofore recognized, is operative. The following kinetic scheme was formulated on the basis of information gleaned from the literature.where P is the nonaggregable, discoid platelet, A the agonist, P* an aggregable platelet form with membranous protrusions, and P** another aggregable platelet form with pseudopods. Taking into account the relative magnitudes of the k*s and assuming aggregation to be driven by hydrophobic interaction between complementary surfaces of P* and P** species, a rate equation was derived for aggregation. The kinetic scheme and the rate equation could account for the apparent first order rate law and other empirical observations in the literature.
