Notes:
The kinetics of the reactions of H atoms with H2S and with COS were measured at 298deg;K in a flow system using mass-spectrometric detection. The rate constants were found to be 3.8 × 10-13 and 2.2 × 10-14 cm3 part-1 sec-1, respectively, with an estimated accuracy of 25%. At high flow rates of H2S, 0.5 molecules of H2S are consumed per H atom originally present. At all flow rates of COS, H2S is a major product, CO production equals COS consumption, and 0.5 molecules of COS are consumed per H atom. The results are consistent with the reaction HS + HS → H2S + S being the dominant process for thiyl radicals, and evidence is presented to indicate that its reaction rate is close to collisional frequency.
