Atmospheric gases rates

Fig. 6. The three ideal zones (I—III) representing the rate of change of reaction for a porous carbon with increasing temperature where a and b are intermediate zones, is activation energy, and -E is tme activation energy. The effectiveness factor, Tj, is a ratio of experimental reaction rate to reaction rate which would be found if the gas concentration were equal to the atmospheric gas concentration (80).

The rate constant for the atmospheric, gas-phase reaction between photochemically produced hydroxyl radicals and organic chemicals and the rate constant for the gas-phase reaction between ozone and olefinic/acetylenic compounds. The rate constants estimated by the program are then used to calculate atmospheric half-lives for organic compounds.

The atmospheric gas exchange rate depends on the CO2 fugacity difference between the air, /co , and water where superscript ml indicates CO2 fugacity in the ocean mixed layer. Fugacity and concentration are related through the Henry s Law coefficient, KH(molm atm ). The net organic carbon flux from the euphotic zone, Jc, has been expanded in the above equation to show that it is the difference between photos5mthesis. Pc, and respiration, Rc (Jc = Pc-Rc). 

TA can be run in either a reactive or non-reactive atmosphere. Reactive atmospheres include corrosive, oxidizing and reducing gases. Non-reactive atmospheres should be an inert gas with little water vapor. Dry Ar and N2 are commonly used for non-reactive atmospheres. Gas flows through the furnace tube around the sample and carries volatile products out. A flow rate of 15-25 ml min-1 is recommended for a sample mass of about 2-10 mg.
