Electrical energy, whether in batteries or biological systems, accomplishes work through oxidation-reduction. This reaction occurs by transferring electrons or atoms between molecules at slow or rapid rates depending on several factors. This research is focused on determining how slowly or rapidly the transfer occurs for the simplest molecules that can participate in the reaction. In the previous grant period such molecules as the industrial bleach chlorite and the atmospheric component nitric oxide have been investigated. The results have led to a significant improvement in the understanding of this reaction. The proposed research extends the studies to additional molecules including such common varieties as the oxygen we breathe and hydrogen peroxide and more unusual molecules such as BrCN. The factors influencing the speed of the reaction such as the solvent in which it takes place will also be investigated.

电能，无论是在电池还是生物系统中，都是通过氧化还原来完成工作的。 该反应是通过在分子之间以慢速或快速的速度转移电子或原子而发生的，具体取决于几个因素。 这项研究的重点是确定可参与反应的最简单分子的转移发生的速度有多慢或快。 在上一个资助期内，对工业漂白剂亚氯酸盐和大气成分一氧化氮等分子进行了研究。 结果使人们对这种反应的理解有了显着的提高。 拟议的研究将研究扩展到其他分子，包括我们呼吸的氧气和过氧化氢等常见分子，以及 BrCN 等更不寻常的分子。 影响反应速度的因素（例如发生反应的溶剂）也将被研究。
