Hi, as part of revision for my exam tomorrow, i have two questiosn that i cannot find the answers to:
1) How does sulfur dioxide get oxidised in the troposphere at night when hydroxyl radical concentration falls to a minimum?
2) Why os the abstraction of an H atom by O* ( an exicited atomic oxygen) is faster than H abstraction by O (atomic oxygen)? Explain your answer by drawing a potential energy profiel for each reaction.
Thanks very much for any help.
