摘要: Gaseous nitrous acid (HNO2) has been observed in polluted air masses over Germany at concentrations up to 2.5 ppb comprising 5% of total NOx (NO + NO2). Due its role smog chemistry it must be considered an important tropospheric nitrogen Compound. The rates HNO2 formation after sunset cannot explained on the basis published rate constants.
