Abstract

The of photochemical decomposition of XcO4 under the action of UV-radia(ion in the wavelength range of 200–300 nm was investigated. The quantum yield of the formation of oxygen atoms upon XeO4 photodissociation was measured (Ф = 3.6±0.4). The results obtained point to the predominant role of the XeO4 +hv → 4O + Xe photodissociation channel of XeO4. The value of the rate constant of the reaction XeO4 + O → O2 + XeO3 was estimated (<4.5 · 10−16 cm2 s−1).
