Photochlorination of tetrachloroethylene has been studied in a homogeneous liquid system. Kinetic parameters such as reaction orders for chlorine, tetracholoroethylene and light intensity, preexponential factor, and activation energy were evaluated from experimental data. The following kinetic equation was obtained by parameter estimation following the Marquardt procedure:\documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ r = \left( {4.02 \pm 0.46} \right)10^{ - 5} \exp \left( { - \frac{{54,700 \pm 200}}{{RT}}} \right)I^{0.489 \pm 0.003} C_{Cl_2 }^{0.889 \pm 0.160} C_{C_2 Cl_4 }^{1.040 \pm 0.042} $$\end{document}
