Abstract

This study reevaluates the role of peroxymonosulfate anion radical ( - O 3 SOO • or SO 5 •- ) intermediate during radical-induced chain oxidation of HSO 3 - /SO 3 2- in oxygenated aqueous solution. The SO 5 •- radical absorption band in the UV is weak: ε = 1065 ± 80 M -1 cm -1 at λ max (260−265 nm). The SO 5 •- radical takes part in two radical−radical and four radical−solute reactions, partially producing the other chain carrier, the SO 4 •- radical, in either case. In this study, employing the pulse-radiolysis technique but adopting a new approach, these two types of reactions of the SO 5 •- radical have been separately quantified (at room temperature). For example, over pH 3.5−12, the branching ratio of (SO 5 •- + SO 5 •- ) reactions giving rise to either the SO 4 •- radical or S 2 O 8 2- is found to remain ∼1. The respective reaction rate constants for I → 0 are (2.2 ± 0.3) and (2.1 ± 0.3) × 10 8 M -1 s -1 . The (SO 5 •- + HSO 3 - ) reactions in acid pH follow two paths, forming the SO 4 •- radical in one and regenerating the SO 3 •- radical in the other, with respective rates of ca. (6.0 ± 0.4) and (3.0 ± 0.3) × 10 7 M -1 s -1 . In alkaline pH (for SO 5 •- + SO 3 2- reactions), the rates for similar reactions are ca. (5.6 ± 0.6) and (1.0 ± 0.1) × 10 8 M -1 s -1 . From only these results, the earlier prediction of chain length reaching a few thousands could be supported in simulation studies (Bigelow, S. L. Z. Phys. Chem. 1898, 28, 493. Young, S. W. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1902, 24, 297. Titoff, A. Z. Phys. Chem. 1903, 45, 641. Bäckström, H. L. J. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1927, 49, 1460. Alyea, H. N.; Bäckström, H. L. J. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1929, 51, 90). To explore the feasibility of controlling S(IV) chain oxidation to sulfuric acid in liquid hydrometeors, the effect of radical scavenging on each SO x •- radical ( x = 3, 4, 5) was simulated. The results show that for the SO 5 •- radical a scavenger reactivity of ∼100 s -1 may be enough to reduce the chain length by >98%. However, in the case SO 4 •- radical scavenging under similar conditions, only ∼75−80% reduction in acid production was observed. These results suggest a fresh modeling of sulfuric acid generation in atmospheric liquid hydrometeors.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
