Abstract
This paper presents a general methodology to determine reaction mechanisms
using in situ measurement of concentration and reaction rate of intermediat
es. The criteria for testing the validity of a reaction sequence are discus
sed. An example is given for a heterogeneous catalytic reaction, the decomp
osition of ozone on manganese oxide.
