A study of consecutive competitive second order reactions is reported. It is shown that identical equations can be obtained by two different approaches. A static method is described where equations are developed by considering the changes brought about in the system by the addition of small quantities of one of the reactants. Equations are also developed from the point of view of kinetics. These equations express the concentrations of the products as functions of the concentration of one of the reactants and the ratio of the velocity constants.

The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of ethane have been investigated by the static method in the temperature range 565° to 640 °C. The reaction was found to be uninfluenced by surface. The rate of the reaction can be expressed by[Formula: see text]The products of the reaction are ethylene, hydrogen, and a small amount of methane and probably higher hydrocarbons.The reaction is discussed from the point of view of free radical mechanisms, and it is suggested that the results cast serious doubt on the validity of the Rice-Herzfeld mechanism and its modification by Küchler and Theile.

The reaction between hexamethylenediisocyanate and 1-pentanol in toluene was studied by means of reversed-phase liquid chromatography. By employing this method, it was possible to determine all components of the reaction mixture including both products, i.e. N-(6-isocyanate hexyl)pentylcarbamate and N,N'-bis(pentyloxycarbonyl)hexamethylenediamine. Relations for the calculation of kinetic constants were derived assuming a competitive consecutive second-order reaction. It was demonstrated that the reaction involved in this case is indeed a second-order reaction, and the rate constants of the first and second consecutive reactions were determined.

The kinetics of nucleophilic substitution reactions of 1-(phenoxycarbonyl)pyridinium ions, prepared with the essentially non-nucleophilic/non-basic fluoroborate as the counterion, have been studied using up to 1.60 M methanol in acetonitrile as solvent and under solvolytic conditions in 2,2,2-trifluoroethan-1-ol (TFE) and its mixtures with water. Under the non- solvolytic conditions, the parent and three pyridine-ring-substituted derivatives were studied. Both second-order (first-order in methanol) and third-order (second-order in methanol) kinetic contributions were observed. In the solvolysis studies, since solvent ionizing power values were almost constant over the range of aqueous TFE studied, a Grunwald–Winstein equation treatment of the specific rates of solvolysis for the parent and the 4-methoxy derivative could be carried out in terms of variations in solvent nucleophilicity, and an appreciable sensitivity to changes in solvent nucleophilicity was found.

The kinetics of the electrophilic additions of four diarylcarbenium ions (4a-4d) to tricarbonyl(η4-cyclohepta-1,3,5-triene)iron (1) have been studied photometrically. The second-order rate constants match the linear Gibbs energy relationship log k20 °C = s(E + N) and yield the nucleophilicity parameter N(1) = 3.69. It is concluded that electrophiles with E ≥ -9 will react with complex 1 at ambient temperature.

The kinetics of permanganate oxidation of DL-α-alanine in aqueous perchloric acid solution at a constant ionic strength of 2.0 mol dm−3 has been investigated spectrophotometrically. The reaction was found to show second-order kinetics overall with respect to each of the reactants in the slow initial stage; the second-order kinetics are not, however, maintained throughout the relatively fast final stage of reaction. The added salts lead to the prediction that Mn(III) and (or) Mn(IV) play a very important role in the reaction kinetics. A tentative mechanism consistent with the kinetics is discussed. Key words: kinetics, oxidation, reduction, amino acids, permanganate.

This paper addresses the development of efficient numerical solvers for EHL problems from a rather fundamental point of view. A work-accuracy exchange criterion is derived, that can be interpreted as setting a limit to the price paid in terms of computing time for a solution of a given accuracy. The criterion can serve as a guideline when reviewing or selecting a numerical solver and a discretization. Earlier developed multilevel solvers for the EHL line and circular contact problem are tested against this criterion. This test shows that, to satisfy the criterion a second-order accurate solver is needed for the point contact problem whereas the solver developed earlier used a first-order discretization. This situation arises more often in numerical analysis, i.e., a higher order discretization is desired when a lower order solver already exists. It is explained how in such a case the multigrid methodology provides an easy and straightforward way to obtain the desired higher order of approximation. This higher order is obtained at almost negligible extra work and without loss of stability. The approach was tested out by raising an existing first order multilevel solver for the EHL line contact problem to second order. Subsequently, it was used to obtain a second-order solver for the EHL circular contact problem. Results for both the line and circular contact problem are presented.

Chitosan nanoparticles were prepared by crosslinkingusing TPP. SEM showed that chitosan nanoparticles were successfully obtained.The adsorption characteristics of chitosan nanoparticles were evaluated. Theresults demonstrated that chitosan nanoparticles were suitable for adsorbent toremoval Pb2+. The parameters for the adsorption of Pb2+by chitosan nanoparticles were also determined. It was shown that chitosannanoparticles were fit for Langmuir’s isotherm model and that the adsorptionkinetics of Pb2+ described by the pseudo-second-order model could bebest.
