AN ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE
In a solution of water if you use ultrasonic waves, activated water

molecule is formed. With CS2, we get CS2* which on deactivation gives

h , resulting in sonoluminescence (a product of reaction)
CS2*
CS2 + h
If we add alcohol, this intensity I reduces. Alcohol is SCAVENGER
MOLECULE.
M + CS2
CS2* + M k1
M + CS2*
CS2 + M
k2
I0/I
X + CS2*
CS2 + X
k3
CS2*
CS2 + h k4
I0/I + 1 + (k3/(k2(M) + k4))X = 1 + kX
