The trends in the translational enera dependence of the reaction cross section and of the product energy distribution for the series of ,M f R1 reactions are discussed. The method is based on an assumed (model) dynamic constraint and the use of information theory to determine the reaction probabilit

✦ Synopsis
The dependence of the reaction cross section for all the alkali-methyl iodide reactions on the translationa! ener_q in the range ET = O-40 kcal/mole has been discussed in an idealized collision model of hard-sphere interaction between couiding particles. In aI reactions of the family, the cross section increases sharply with ET showing an Arrhenius-Like positiieener-q dependence for ET just past threshold and then takes a maximum value. The maximum value is largest for the Cs reaction and decreases with the aIkaIi mass except that it slightly increases from Rb to K, and the peak becomes broader as the mass decreases. In the post-maximum region the cross section decreases slowly with ET.
