The exchange reactions between deuterium and hydrogen halides. II. Hydrogen bromide

This investigation into the exchange reaction of deuterium and hydrogen bromide was carried out in order to substantiate some results obtained in Part I on the reactions of deuterium and hydrogen chloride. It was desired to find out how the change to the analogous system affects the bimolecular reaction observed in the hydrogen chloride case and also to obtain some more information concerning reactions of the type D + HA→DA + H, which from the theoretical considerations given in Part I have unusual characteristics.
