1. Introduction
Mechanisms of heterogenous processes are fundamental to the understanding of
the chemical transformations and reactions of trace gases under amlospheric con-
ditions. The incorporation of trace gases into droplets is a very efficient process in
the removal of natural and anthropogenic trace gases from the atmosphere. One of
the difficulties of measuring these coefficients is to first obtain clean and well
defined water surfaces with constant physico-chemical properties. Another diffi-
culty is due to the fact that gas to liquid mass transfer is a multistep process in
which it is difficult to isolate each step. One can consider the following subpro-
cesses:
(t) Diffusion of the molecules in the gas phase towards the liquid surface,
(2) mass transfer across the interface vapor/liquid,
(3) hydrolysis, ionization or chemical reactions in the liquid phase (if any),
(4) diffusion of the species in the liquid phase.
2 J.L. PONCHE, Ch. GEORGE, AND Ph. MIRABEL
Subprocesses 1 and 4 are governed by diffusion, in both the gas and liquid
phases. The second process, transport across the interface is characterized by the
coefficient /3 known as the mass accommodation coefficient (or sticking coeffi-
cient), the determination of which is the goal of our work. Under special condi-
tions, it is possible to kinetically separate these four processes. Direct measurement
of the coefficient/3 is possible when step 2 constitutes the limiting factor of the
overall process (Schwartz, 1986).
For droplets of the liquid phase, this coefficient/3 is defined as:
number of molecules absorbed through the interface
/3 = (1)
number of molecular collisions with the surface of droplets
/3 is thus the effective fraction of molecules of trace gases absorbed at the interface.
However, the experimentally measured mass accommodation coefficient is a lower
limit to the actual coefficient due to limitations of the uptake rate by gas phase
diffusion, surface saturation or chemical reactions.
The determination of the mass accommodation coefficient/3 permits to identify',
under atmospheric conditions, the rate limiting step for the incorporation of trace
gases into liquid aerosols, fog, or cloud droplets. When the value of fl is larger than
approximately 0.01, main limitation to the uptake is diffusion in the gas phase
(Schwartz, 1986). However, for lower values of/3, mass transfer at the gas/liquid
interface can become the limiting step.
Interest in/3 originated with studies of the evaporation and condensation coeffi-
cients of pure liquids. Ma W attempts have been made to determine this coefficient
/3 for water condensing on water surfaces. It is now generally recognized that the
magnitude of/3 for water surfaces is close to unity (Schwartz, 1984, 1986). How-
ever, many older experiments lead to values much lower than unity. For example,
Gamier et al. (1987) measured a condensation coefficient of 10 -2 for water on
liquid droplets containing NaC1. Other earlier measurements are reported by
Pruppacher (1978).
With regard to the physical chemistry of trace gas uptakes by water surfaces,
only few experimental data exist today. For example, recent experimental determi-
nations of mass accommodation coefficients have been performed for SO 2 and
H202 (Gardner et al., 1987; Worsnop et at., 1989), for HNO3, HC1, N20 s (Van
Doren et al., 1990; Kirchner et al., 1990), for NO2 (Lee and Tang, 1988), for HO2
radicals (Mozurkewitch et al., 1987), and for NH 3 (Larson and Taylor, 1983;
Richardson and Hightower, 1987; Harrison et al., 1990).
The uptake rate can be limited by several factors. In fact, for highly soluble
gases, the limitation originates in the diffusion in the gas phase. The uptake near the
droplet could be such that diffusion in the gas could be insufficient to maintain a
constant concentration around the droplets. Also, if the diffusion rate in the liquid
is smaller than the rate of uptake near the interface, the liquid surface can rapidly
saturate, so that desorption of gas can occur. In these two cases, the effect is to
decrease the value of the experimental mass accommodation coefficient fi~xp com-
pared with that in the absence of limitation (Gardner et al., 1987).
MASS TRANSFER AT THE AIR/WATER INTERFACE 3
2. Experimental
A principal difficulty involved the preparation of a rapidly and constantly renewed
liquid surface. Lee and Tang (1988) performed this experiment for NO2 using macro-
scopic surfaces of liquids containing chemical sinks and exposure times of the order of
several seconds. Kirchner et at. (1990), use micrometric jets and exposure or inter-
action times in the range 0.03-1 ms. We preferred to produce micrometric droplet
stream (diameters in the range 80-110 gin), having short contact times with the trace
gases of the order of a few milliseconds.
The method used here follows closely that of Gardner et al. (1987). The experi-
mental apparatus (Figure 1) is a low pressure flow tube reactor which consists of five
successive chambers: (1) a droplet generating chamber, (2) a buffer chamber contain-
ing liquid water on the wall and an electromagnetic shutter which controls access to the
next chamber, (3) the interaction chamber where trace gases and droplets interact, (4)
another buffer chamber, and (5) the droplet collection chamber. The stream of drop-
lets and the flow of trace gases and carrier gas are co-axial.
The droplets are generated using the vibrating orifice method (Plateau, 1873;
Rayleigh, 1878; Str6m, 1969; Berglund and Liu, 1973). Filtered water is forced
through a calibrated orifice, formed in stainless steel sealed to a piezoelectric ceramic
(Quartz et Silice, S.A.) connected to a frequency generator. When the generator is
turned on, the vibrations control the disintegration of the water jet, and for particular
frequencies, a monodisperse stream of droplets is produced. The optimal frequency
for obtaining monodispersed droplets is given by Rayleigh (1879) as
Vi'et (2)
fopt 4.508 Diet '
where viet and Dies are, respectively, the water jet velocity and the diameter of the jet.
Since thej et passes through the orifice and disintegrates with negligible loss of ener-
gy, one can assume that viet = va and Diet = D where v a and D are, respectively, the
velocity of the droplets and the diameter of the calibrated orifice. This leads to

temperature of the bubbler is the same than temperature inside the reactor. Fur-
thermore, the bottom of the first buffer zone is permanently covered with a thin
pool of liquid water. So we can assume that the droplet stream is in equilibrium
with ambient water vapor. Values of the water vapor pressure as a function of tem-
perature are given by Tabatta (1973).
As noted before, the mass accommodation coefficient is defined as the ratio of
the number of molecules absorbed by droplets to the total number of molecular
collisions with droplets.
From the kinetic theory of gases, we can express the rate of collision between
molecules and droplets as"
where (vA} represents the thermal mean molecular velocity of the trace gas A (cm/
s), N is the number of droplets in the interaction chamber, J~'d is the total area of
the N droplets of area Sd (cm2), and hA. 0 is the number density of A (molecules
c m -3) in the carrier gas flow before interaction with the droplets.
The total number of molecules absorbed by the droplets, n~b~, is given by the
expression:
= F. An , o, (s)
where Fg is the volume rate of flow (cm 3 s -1) of the carrier gas, AnA, 0 = hA, 0 -- rtA, 1
is the number of molecules absorbed per c m 3, and nA, 1 is the trace gas density after
an interaction length l (l represents the length of the interaction tube).
The coefficient ~exp can be expressed as
Fg A hA, 0 (9)
/~exp ~ i
This expression is valid only if absorption of the trace gas A by the droplets is
small, implying that the radial concentration gradient is small. However, a concen-
tration gradient develops along the length of the interaction tube due to the absorp-
tion of the trace gas by the droplets and by the walls (wall losses).
To express the gradient due to the absorption by the droplets, one can assume a
first-order reaction (Gardner et al., 198 7) such that
dnA = k~ ) hA, (10)

where k~ ) represents the first-order rate constant for absorption of the trace gas A
by the droplets and ~ is the average velocity of the carrier gas in the interaction
tube of radius r t 05 -- ]~/~r2).
Integrating over the length l of the interaction tube, Equation (9) yields

with the first-order rate constant k~ ) expressed by

in which Ma is the molar mass of the gas A, T the temperature, and R the universal
gas constant.
#exp in Equation (13) can be expressed as a function of our experimental meas-
urables as
(i) Desorption of trace gas from the droplet has to be negligible. This implies
that the contact time between the trace gas and droplet has to be short to
avoid saturation of the interface. This point will be discussed for each trace
gas in the result section.
(ii) The flow rate of the carrier gas has to be faster than diffusion in the gas
phase in order to minimize radial concentration gradients. This implies that
the uptake by the droplets must be slow compared to the rate of supply and
that wall losses are small so that the gas phase concentration changes are
negligible.
This last point was checked by changing the trace gas concentration in the
carrier gas (up to a factor 10 for HNO3, see Figure 3) or by varying the flow veloci-
ty by a factor 2 (25-50 cm s-l). No significant variation in the values of #exp has
ever been observed confirming that condition (ii) is always fulfilled.
Typical experimental conditions and droplet parameters are summarized in
Tables I and II. For SOz and HNO3 more than 50 experimental runs, in each case,
were performed while for NO2 and NH3, the number exceeded 80.
Our determination of fle×p is based on the measurement of the trace gas dis-
solved in the aqueous phase. For HNO 3 and NH 3 our analytical method allows

The characteristic times of saturation of the droplet by gas phase diffusion T gsa~

• the timescale in which either diffusion in the
gas phase or transport across the interface control the establishment of the equi-
librium between the gas and liquid phases leading to uniform concentration in the

liquid phase. For NH3, NO; and SO2, rg and Ti are smaller than the experi-
mental interaction time te×p meaning that phase equilibrium can be reached in our
timescate. However, the characteristic times r d for aqueous phase diffusion are
larger than texp assuring that the entire droplet will not be saturated by the dissolved
trace gases. For H N O 3 , a similar conclusion can be reached since "ggSat,Ti'~at,and va
are all larger than rexp.
In order to discuss and explain our experimental results, we also need to know
the following physical constants: the Henry's law constant H, the gas phase diffu-
sion coefficient Dg and the aqueous phase diffusion coefficient Da. All these values
are listed in Table III.
Considering these characteristic times, it becomes easy to determine which limi-
tation is involved in our measurements. We will examine the results of the four
gases separately, and discuss them with the aid of the theory of Schwartz (1986)
and the model proposed by Gardner et al. (1987).
3.1. Resutt f o r S 0 2
Experimental results, for three different values of pH (see Table II), are given in
Figure 2. These results show that the observed mass accommodation coefficient is
strongly dependent upon the interaction time texp and also upon the droplet's pH.
This can be explained by consideration of the characteristic times of the different
sub-processes.
The characteristic time for the chemical reaction r~ is much smaller than other
times, so it appears that aqueous phase reactions could not be a limiting factor. For
the gas phase, the characteristic time for diffusion r~ is much smaller than texp
meaning that the gas phase can be considered at steady state. Elsewhere, rdg de-
creases with pressure and with the radius of the droplet justifying our decision to
12 J.L. PONCHE, Ch. GEORGE, AND Ph. MIRABEL
work with small droplets and under reduced pressure. The characteristic times for
Sat
saturation of the droplet by diffusion in the gas phase rg and by the interracial
mass transport rTat are lower than rexp so that the droplet surface can be considered
at equilibrium with ambient SO2. However, the characteristic time of aqueous
phase diffusion r~ is much greater than texp implying that this process is not rapid
enough to evacuate adsorbed molecules from the droplets surfaces into the liquid
phase. As a consequence, the interface will become rapidly saturated by SO2 within
a penetration depth dx.
Such a phenomenon will be followed by re-evaporation of
802 from the interface introducing a time dependence in the observed mass
accommodation coefficient. In order to quantify this dependence one has first to
consider the real solubility of SO 2 at the interface.
Incorporation of sulfur dioxide molecules in the aqueous phase leads to the
acid-base equilibria (19-21), and allows one to define another Henry's law con-
stant Hs(w} (22). This pseudo-constant takes account of all the dissolved species
resulting from the dissociation of SO 2 in aqueous phase, and describes the effective
solubility of SO 2 in water. This constant appears to highly depend on the pH.

Hs(w, = Hso2 1 + [ ~ + ~

These equilibria between the gas and aqueous phase change the local value of
the droplet surface pH and this in turn modifies the solubility of SO 2 at the inter-
face. If we suppose that a steady state exists at the interface, implying that SO2(g) is
in continual equilibrium with SO~(aq> it becomes possible to calculate the value of
the pH at the droplet's surface (Gardner et al.,
1987). By neglecting the second dis-
sociation (Equation (21)), and introducing the equilibrium involving water dis-
sociation (23), namely:
with

MASS TRANSFER AT THE AIR/WATER INTERFACE 13
where the indices o and i correspond, respectively, to the initial state and the equi-
librium state at the surface, while Pso2 is the partial pressure of SO2 in the gas
phase. Using, K w = 10-14(298 K), K 1 = 1.74 x 10 2 M (Schwartz and Freiberg,
1981), Hso 2 = 1.26 M/atm (Schwartz and Freiberg, 1981), we can calculate the
pseudo Henry's law constant using the different surface's pH (Table IV). These cal-
culations show a strong dependence of the solubility upon the droplet's pH explain-
ing the differences observed for the three series of measurements depicted in
Figure 2.
The desorption of SO 2 from the droplet surfaces appears as a decrease of the
incorporation rate as a function of time (Gardner et al., 1987, Worsnop et al.,
(1989). This time dependence is expressed by Worsnop et al. (1989) by consider-
ing the real flux J of SO2, i.e. the difference between the influx and outflux from the
droplet:

For pH value larger than 3.5, HNOa concentration is much smaller than NO2
concentration and can be neglected. The characteristic time r r of reaction (35) is
under our experimental conditions, in the order of 1.6 s which is much larger than
any other characteristic time (see Table III). This implies that, for our experiments,
only reaction (34) takes place, i.e. only physical solubility of NO: occurs. Note that
NO2 has a very low physical solubility in water compared to SO2 and HNO 3.
Aqueous phase diffusion o f NO2(aq) is then the limiting process and the droplet
surface becomes rapidly saturated with NO2. The analysis developed for SO 2
should also apply in this case, except that the interracial pH remains the same as the
initial pH. However, it was impossible to fit our experimental values with theoreti-
cal curves such as those predicted by Equation (28). Even by using a value of
/3exp(0) = 1, the curves calculated from Equation (28) lie below our experimental
values.
The observed uptake rate in our system seems to greatly exceed the value pre-
dicted by the above described model. Such a discrepancy has already been ob-
served in previous studies. In fact, Borok (1960) and Beilke (1970) observed that,
at tow partial pressure of NO 2 (lower than 10 .7 atm), the uptake rate is much larger
than the value calculated by considering only the reactions (34) and (35) and also
Henry's taw constant as high as 0.55 M atm -~ has been reported. Schwartz and
White (1983) explained these facts by considering additional (but unknown) reac-
tions of NO2 with dissolved impurities. Such an explanation may also apply to our
system.

Experimental results are given in Figure 6 for three different values of pH (see
Table II). By considering the characteristic times for the different steps involved, it
appears that the hypothesis of the steady state is, in fact, verified for diffusion in the
gas phase. But it also appears that characteristic times for saturation of the droplet
sat sat
rg and r~ are smaller than rexp SO that the droplets surfaces are in equilibrium
with ammonia traces. Mass transport limitations also exist in this case (similar to
that of SO2) because of a slow aqueous phase diffusion.
To estimate the effective solubility of ammonia at the interface, one has to con-
sider the following equilibria (Leaist, 1987; Durrant et al., 1962; Berg et al., 1953):
The presence of these equilibria changes the pH on the droplet surface which
can be calculated (Table VI) using the same hypotheses as those for SO>
It appears that for the three values of pH chosen the interface is rapidIy satu-
rated, implying a decrease of the observed coefficient as a function of time. The
uptake is a convolution of absorption and desorption. Once again, invoking the
same analysis as that for SO> one obtains

SO 2 and H202 in different carrier gas. Their observations show that the observed
uptake is dependent upon the total pressure in the reactor, meaning that the accom-
modation coefficient is pressure dependent. A solution to this mass transport limi-
tation has been given by Schwartz (1986) and by Gardner et al. (1987). For the
case of a spherical droplet, the mass accommodation coefficient for a zero total
pressure/3 (P = 0), i.e. when no gas phase limitation exists, is given by

where P is the total pressure in the reactor. Using this expression, we obtain the
corrected mass accommodation coefficient/3 (P = 0) listed in Table VII.
However, Equation (42) has been derived for a static single droplet and may not
be directly applicable to our fast moving train. Recent work by Worsnop el al.
(1989) suggest that the droplet diameter in Equation (42) should be replaced by a
corrected droplet diameter df = 1.9 D. But it should be noted that this relation can
be directly obtained by combination of Equations (2) to (6) meaning that, in our
case, Equation (42) already includes the correction for the diameter However,
further analysis must be done to completely resolve this issue.
