Kinetics of Reactions in Gases

Abstract

In the study of reaction rates, the purpose is often qualitative description. A pioneering investigation may seek general information about a wide range of substances, or it may seek a qualitative mechanism, that is, a list of reasonable-looking elementary reactions with plausible reactive intermediates, which is adequate to explain observations. This aspect of kinetics and mechanisms is extremely important and is often all that is needed.
