Question

Linds theory of radiolysis​

Answer 1

Answer:

Radiolysis is the dissociation of molecules by ionizing radiation. It is the cleavage of one or several chemical bonds resulting from exposure to high-energy flux

Explanation:

For example, water dissociates under alpha radiation into a hydrogen radical and a hydroxyl radical, unlike ionization of water which produces a hydrogen ion and a hydroxide ion.[citation needed] The chemistry of concentrated solutions under ionizing radiation is extremely complex. Radiolysis can locally modify redox conditions, and therefore the speciation and the solubility of the compounds.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation: A model is presented which describes the geometrical effects in the radiolysis of water as a result of the diffusion of free radicals. The motion of secondary electrons immediately following the passage of the ionizing particle is discussed in an appendix, and it is concluded that radicals are most likely formed in pairs at the approximate sites of the original ionizations. Models for the diffusion of these radicals are shown to result in a definite fraction of radicals which undergo initial recombination for gamma‐ and fast beta‐rays, for which the spurs are considered as diffusing independently. For alpha‐rays a connected‐track model is used. For the intermediate case of tritium beta‐rays, a two‐stage model is constructed. In each case the comparative yields of the ``forward'' and ``radical'' reactions (GF and GR) are calculated. Subsequent chemical effects in pure water and solutions are also considered briefly.
