§10.3 Chain Reaction 10.3.1 basic concepts of chain reaction: Chain reactions are those reactions in which some intermediates are consumed and regenerated in a cycle of reactions the net result of which is to carry forward the overall reaction Cl,→2Cl chain-initiating step 少C+H2>HCl+H H+Cl→HC+Cl chain-propagating steps 2Cl·—→>CN2 chain-terminating step

§10.3 Chain Reaction 10.3.1 basic concepts of chain reaction: (1) Chain-initiating step: a reaction in which a molecule is decomposed forming some activated species such as free atoms, radicals, carbonium ions which act as chain initiating species also called chain carriers, by thermal collision or radiation In some cases. a molecule named as initiator. which can readily decompose and produces radicals, is introduced into the system chain-propagating steps Cl·+H>HC1+H H●+Cl,kHCl+Cl Owing to the participation of active intermediate, the activation energy of chain reactions usually ranging between 0-40 kJ mol-I is much lower than that of other kinds of reactions of 40-400 kJ mol-. Therefore, chain reactions can proceed rapidly
Owing to the participation of active intermediate, the activation energy of chain reactions usually ranging between 0 ~ 40 kJ mol-1 is much lower than that of other kinds of reactions of 40 ~ 400 kJ mol-1 . Therefore, chain reactions can proceed rapidly. chain-propagating steps 2 3 2 2 Cl +H HCl+H H +Cl HCl+Cl k k • ⎯⎯→ • • ⎯⎯→ • 10.3.1 basic concepts of chain reaction: （1）Chain-initiating step: a reaction in which a molecule is decomposed forming some activated species such as free atoms, radicals, carbonium ions which act as chain initiating species also called chain carriers, by thermal collision or radiation.
