By studying the photolysis of ammonia-deuterium mixtures it has been experimentally demonstrated that the reaction NH2+H = NH3 is an important feature of the overall photo-decomposition and provides one reason for the low quantum yield observed in the photo-process. It has further been shown that the interaction of hydrogen atoms with ammonia molecules is a process of low efficiency at room temperatures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
