science-softCon uv/vis+ photochemistry database; www.photochemistry.org; (C) science-softCon 2019 Substance: nitrous oxide Other Names: dinitrogen monoxide Formula: N2O CAS-No.: 10024-97-2 Study: UV absorption spectrum, photolysis, quantum yields Authors: H.S. Johnston, R. Graham Title: Photochemistry of NOx and HNOx Compounds Journal/Source: Can. J. Chem., 52, 1415-1423, (1975) Data: table, diagram Energy/Wavelength range: 190 - 315 nm Resolution: Temperature: 298 K Temperature dependence: no Pressure/Concentration: Phase: gas pH:: Comments: Cross sections for absorption of radiation between 190 and 700 nm are given for N2O, NO2, NO3, N2O4, N2O5, HNO2, and HNO3. The quantum yields and the primary products of photolysis of each of these substances are discussed. Author to whom correspondence should be addressed: (e-mail address):
