Abstract
Data are presented on the decomposition of azomethane in the presence of several inert gases, relative activation efficiencies being given in Table II. The low efficiency of helium as compared to the other gases is taken as indicating that exchange of vibrational energy between molecules is more probable than the transition of translational into vibrational energy. The results are compared with other pertinent data, and the probable mechanism of energy exchange is discussed. Finally, some preliminary data on the effect of azomethane on reactive gases are given.Keywords
