説明
<jats:p>Rate constants for reactions of the hydrated electron with a wide range of compounds, including simple salts and amino acids, have been measured in the time region 20–350 psec. In nearly all cases the second-order rate constant for reaction with the hydrated electron did not change in the concentration range studied. However, the measured rate constant was in general different to that obtained in dilute solutions, and this was attributed to incomplete formation of the ionic atmosphere around the hydrated electron before reaction. Apart from the hydronium ion, Haq+, nearly all compounds decreased the initial hydrated electron yield: in all cases this decrease showed an exponential dependence on concentration. Compounds most efficient at decreasing the hydrated electron yield were cystine and cadmium salts, in both cases 0.39 mole/liter being needed to reduce the initial yield to 37%. The ability to reduce the initial yield showed no direct correlation with the corresponding hydrated electron rates. This and other evidence suggest that radiation-produced electrons are reacting before solvation.</jats:p>
