RATE OF REACTION OF GASEOUS FLUORINE WITH WATER VAPOR AT 35 C
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4314927
Fluorine and water vapor react extremely slowly or not at all in the gas phse at 35 deg C at partial pressures of the reactants up to 40 mm of mercury. They react at surfaces; the kinetics are first order with respect to each of the reactants. At Kel-F wax-coated surfaces, the rate of disappearance of fluorine is expressed by --dF/sub 2/dt = 1.6 x 10/sup -4/ A/sub w/(F/sub 2/!(H/sub 2/O!, where --dF/sub 2 /dt is the rate of disappearance of fluorine in moles per second, A/sub w/ is the surface area (sq cm) of the reaction vessel, and STAF/sub 2/! and STAH/sub 2/O! are the concentrations in moles per liter of the reactants. Neither ozone nor hydrogen peroxide is formed to a measurable extent in the reaction. (auth)
