On the possible magnetic field dependence of the nickel carbonylation rate

The interaction of Ni with CO gas to produce Ni(CO) 4 at 1 atm pressure, has been studied as a function of time, temperature (25 < T < 95° C) and externally applied magnetic field ( H ⩽ 500 Oe). We find no significant magnetic field dependence of the nickel carbonylation rate, in sharp contras...

Description
Summary:The interaction of Ni with CO gas to produce Ni(CO) 4 at 1 atm pressure, has been studied as a function of time, temperature (25 < T < 95° C) and externally applied magnetic field ( H ⩽ 500 Oe). We find no significant magnetic field dependence of the nickel carbonylation rate, in sharp contrast with results previously reported by Krinchik et al. The activation energy for this reaction is found to be 0.21 ± 0.05 eV independent of magnetic field.
