  • Abstract:
  • The Zn (II), Cd(II), and Pd (II) complexes were prepared from 5,5dimethyl1,3-cyclohexanedione bis (thiosemicarbazone) and subjected to heating at a rate of 200C per minute. The order of the reaction, mechanism, and kinetic parameters are studied using nine mechanistic and three nonmechanistic equations. The values of E, A, and ∆S were compared to choose the correct mechanism of decomposition.
