Abstract

A critical examination has been made of some aspects of the thermal decomposition of ethane and the reverse recombination reaction. The experimental Arrhenius A‐factors for ethane are, in general, smaller than those which are calculated from thermodynamic quantities together with the observed rate constants for methyl recombination. Theoretical calculations also illustrate a discrepancy between the experimental work on recombination and decomposition. The experimental shapes of k/k~α~ falloff curves and the pressure region of falloff are compared with the predictions of RRKM theory for various models.

## Abstract The thermal decomposition of ethane has been reinvestigated using the single pulse, reflected shock technique. Reflected shock temperatures were corrected for boundary layer‐induced nonidealities using the thermal decomposition of cyclohexene as a kinetic standard. The rate constant for
