Previous studies by Buckler and Norrish of the second limit of CO and 0 2 mixtures containing small amounts (0.25-10%) of Hz have been used to obtain the velocity constant of the reaction (33) 0 + CO + M = COz + M Theseestimatesofks3=3.9 X lo8 and 3.5 X I081iter2mole-zsec-1(M =H2) at500"and 560°C.
The so.called low pressure glow and explosion limits of the water-cataiysed reaction between carbon monoxide and oxygen have been studied using a photomultiplier to obtain light intensity/time graphs. The results show no sign of a glow limit, and little discontinuity at the explosion limit. The effe
