Effect of some co-dissolved inorganic groups on the photodecomposition of aqueous nitrates

pure and applied geophysics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The rate of nitrite formation, in UV-irradiated aqueous solutions of alkali metals, is found to depend on co-dissolved chemical compounds and on their reactivities. The effect of some common and simple components of the atmospheric aerosol is investigated in the laboratory.
