Abstract
The reaction Cl + HBr→HCl + Br was studied by a competitive method using the reaction Cl + C2H6→HCl + C 2H5 as a reference reaction. Experiments to determine ratios of rate constants kCl+HBr/kCl+C2H6 in the temperature range 222-504 K were carried out in a fast flow system with mass spectrometric analysis of the reaction mixture. The results fit the Arrhenius expression: kCl+HBr/kCl+C2H6 = (0.53±0.03) exp [-(321±16)/T]. A comparison is made with values calculated from reported results for the individual rate constants KCl+HBr and K Cl+C2H6.
