Abstract

On account of the disagreement between previous investigations of Kassel and the writer, the decomposition of mixtures of methyl and ethyl ether has been reinvestigated with greater accuracy. The cross‐activation efficiency has been found to be considerably greater than that previously reported. It is, however, decidedly smaller than that for collisions between molecules of the same kind.
