- Abstract
THE chemical distribution of radioactive recoil atoms arising from nuclear reactions in solid state is the consequence of a series of complicated processes and depends on many factors such as the nature of nuclear reaction, the chemical environment of the recoiling atom and the conditions of experiment. Investigation of the effects of these factors on the chemical fate of recoil atoms is required to clarify the mechanism of the whole recoil process. The present communication describes the recoil effects of 79Br(n,γ)80mBr and 81Br(n,γ)82Br reactions in a variety of bromates. The isotope effect reported by Jach and Harbottle for alkali bromates1 was also found for bromates of other metals. The retention of radioactive bromine atoms as bromate was found to be affected by the basicity of the cation.
