Abstract
Pure CO/sub 2/ has been radiolyzed using 600-keV electrons from a Febetron 706 to give a G(CO) value of 7.7 +- 0.3. The addition of oxygen decreases the G(CO) yield to about 6.0 at concentrations as high as 10 mole%, whereas with carbon monoxide the yield drops to a limiting value of 4.7. In the presence of both O/sub 2/ and CO where the O/sub 2/ is in excess of the stoichiometric decomposition ratio of 1:2, a considerable decrease of G(CO) has been observed. The decomposition mechanism to explain these results is discussed.
