11. The lifetime of the VOC called glyoxal in the atmosphere is controlled by its reaction with the OH radical and photolysis. The rate constants for these reactions have been measured as ko3.7x 10* cm molecule" s'and ka=12 min". What would the overall lifetime of glyoxal under these conditions with an [OH]=1.6x 10 molecule cm.
