Carbon monoxide chemical characteristics

What problems face the theory of combustion The theory of combustion must be transformed into a chapter of physical chemistry. Basic questions must be answered will a compound of a given composition be combustible, what will be the rate of combustion of an explosive mixture, what peculiarities and shapes of flames should we expect We shall not be satisfied with an answer based on analogy with other known cases of combustion. The phenomena must be reduced to their original causes. Such original causes for combustion are chemical reaction, heat transfer, transport of matter by diffusion, and gas motion. A direct calculation of flame velocity using data on elementary chemical reaction events and thermal constants was first carried out for the reaction of hydrogen with bromine in 1942. The problem of the possibility of combustion (the concentration limit) was reduced for the first time to thermal calculations for mixtures of carbon monoxide with air. Peculiar forms of propagation near boundaries which arise when normal combustion is precluded or unstable were explained in terms of the physical characteristics of mixtures. [Pg.163]

In the evaluation of toxic characteristics of an inhalable environmental chemical (e.g., carbon monoxide, volatile chemical, or aerosol/particulate), determination of acute inhalation toxicity is an initial study step. It provides information on health hazards likely to arise from short-term exposure by inhalation. Data from an acute test help to establish a dose regimen in subchronic (and other) studies, and may provide additional information on a chemical s mode of toxic action. [Pg.477]

Isomeric (s-cis- and (i-fra/w-V-conjugated diene)zirconocene and -haf-nocene complexes exhibit pronounced differences in their characteristic structural data as well as their spectroscopic features. These differences exceed by far the consequences expected to arise simply from the presence of conformational isomers of the 1,3-diene unit. While (f-rra/u-butadiene)-zirconocene (3a) shows a behavior similar to a transition metal olefin TT-complex, the (.r-cu-diene)ZrCp2 isomer 5a exhibits a pronounced alkylmetal character (23, 45). Typical features are best represented by a tr, 7T-type structure for 5 (55). However, the distinctly different bonding situation of the butadiene Tr-system/bent-metallocene linkage is not only reflected in differences in physical data between the dienemetallocene isomers 3 and 5, but also gives rise to markedly different chemical behavior. Three examples of this are discussed in this section the reactions of the 3/5 isomeric mbcture with carbon monoxide, ethylene, and organic carbonyl compounds. [Pg.26]
