Abstract

Pulsed electron radiolysis was used to determine the chemical reaction kinetics and Arrhenius parameters for iron(II) reactions in aqueous solutions under irradiation. The second-order Fe2+ reactions with the hydrated electron (eaq-) and the perhydroxyl radical (HO2), arising from water radiolysis, were measured to high temperatures using custom-built flow-through cells with a multichannel optical detection system. The reaction with the HO2 radical was found to proceed via the formation of a metal-ion adduct species, Fe2+-HO2. The adduct’s molar extinction coefficient and its first-order decay rate coefficients are also reported.
