The decomposition of nitric oxide at temperatures ranging from 2700 to 3500 K was studied by means of the shock tube. The experimental data were reduced by the method described in a preceding paper and explained consistently by a set of the elementary reactions. The rate constant of the initiation reaction 2NO → N 2 O + O, which was not well known in this temperature range, was deduced precisely. k 1 was one order of magnitude lower than that reported previously in similar shock‐tube experiments, and was consistent with results obtained below 2000 K and from the reverse reaction.
