Abstract
By means of kinetic spectroscopy, the concentration of CH has been measured in the flash photolysis of methane. Measurements were made by following the attenuation of C 2Σ+←X 2Π Q branch at 3143 Å, where the disappearance of CH is of the first order in CH. Experiments were conducted with pure methane, methane+H2, and methane+N2. The reactions and the corresponding rate constants in mole−1 cm3 sec−1 are
