Short summary
Gas-phase diffusion is the first step for all heterogeneous reactions under atmospheric conditions. Therefore, we have used two complementary methods for the measurement of diffusion coefficients in the temperature range of 200–300 K: the arrested flow method is best suited for unstable gases (ozone, dinitrogen pentoxide, chlorine nitrate), and the twin tube method is best suited for stable but adsorbing trace gases (nitrogen dioxide, dinitrogen tetroxide).
