Abstract
It is shown by two photon laser induced fluorescence that virtually no I(2P½) atoms are products of the reactions of F atoms with HI, I2, and ICN. A simple electrostatic model is used to prove that the potential surface beginning at F∗(2P½)+RI and ending at RF+I∗(2P½) must have an intermediate maximum. Moreover, this surface must cross a surface leading to ground state I atoms at two points. It is concluded that the propensity to form I rather than I∗ atoms is not general but depends on specific properties of the potential surfaces.
