98 EXPERIMENTAL METHODS FOR SLOW REACTIONSry-ReactantentryMcLeodgauges .IIThermostatting JacketVacuum JacketMoveable detector\Fixed detectorFig. 68. Isothermal calorimeter. From ref. 328.cesses, may be followed by measuring the heat evolved. For gas-phase reactionsthe change in resistance <strong>of</strong> a thin metal wire may be measured as a function <strong>of</strong>time. The wire is enclosed in a thin Pyrex or silica1 sleeve and suspended in theRV. Van~eC~’~ has shown that the change in temperature may be related to thechange in pressure for several oxidation reactions.The combination <strong>of</strong> atoms or radicals liberates a considerable amount <strong>of</strong> heatdue simply to the energy <strong>of</strong> bond formation. At low pressures this will take placeheterogeneously. Hence this presents a method <strong>of</strong> detecting free radicals or atoms
