2Z)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-[(3E)-3-[2-(4-chloropheny l)-2-oxoethylidene]-3,4dihydro quinoxalin- 2 (1H)-ylidene]ethanone (Q4) was tested as inhibito r for the corrosion of copper in 2M HNO 3 using gravimetric method at 303 – 343 K. The inhibi tor (Q4) showed about 90% inhibition efficiency (E (%)) at an optimum concentration of 1 0 -3 M. The inhibition efficiency increases with increase in inhibitor concentration but decrease wi th rise in temperature. Various parameters (Ea , ∆G ° ads , K ads ) for adsorption reveal a strong interaction betwee n inhibitor and copper surface. The negative values of ∆G° ads indicate the spontaneous adsorption of the inhibit or on copper surface. Kinetic parameters activation such as a E , aH °∆ , aS °∆ and pre-exponential factor have been calculated and discussed. Further, theore tical calculations were carried out and relations between computed parameters and experimen tal inhibition efficiency were discussed.
