  3. Inelastic collision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inelastic_collision

    In such a collision, kinetic energy is lost by bonding the two bodies together. This bonding energy usually results in a maximum kinetic energy loss of the system. It is necessary to consider conservation of momentum: (Note: In the sliding block example above, momentum of the two body system is only conserved if the surface has zero friction.

  4. Chemical equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_equation

    A chemical equation is the symbolic representation of a chemical reaction in the form of symbols and chemical formulas.The reactant entities are given on the left-hand side and the product entities are on the right-hand side with a plus sign between the entities in both the reactants and the products, and an arrow that points towards the products to show the direction of the reaction.

  5. Beckmann rearrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beckmann_rearrangement

    The rearrangement of acetone oxime in the Beckmann solution involved three acetic acid molecules and one proton (present as an oxonium ion). In the transition state leading to the iminium ion (σ-complex), the methyl group migrates to the nitrogen atom in a concerted reaction as the hydroxyl group is expelled.

  6. Arsenic pentoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenic_pentoxide

    Arsenic pentoxide is the inorganic compound with the formula As 2 O 5. [2] This glassy, white, deliquescent solid is relatively unstable, consistent with the rarity of the As(V) oxidation state. More common, and far more important commercially, is arsenic(III) oxide (As 2 O 3). All inorganic arsenic compounds are highly toxic and thus find only ...

  7. Half-life - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-life

    Half-life (symbol t ½) is the time required for a quantity (of substance) to reduce to half of its initial value.The term is commonly used in nuclear physics to describe how quickly unstable atoms undergo radioactive decay or how long stable atoms survive.

  8. Bethe formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bethe_formula

    The interaction excites or ionizes the atoms, leading to an energy loss of the traveling particle. The non-relativistic version was found by Hans Bethe in 1930; the relativistic version (shown below) was found by him in 1932. [2] The most probable energy loss differs from the mean energy loss and is described by the Landau-Vavilov distribution. [3]

  9. Hammett equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammett_equation

    In organic chemistry, the Hammett equation describes a linear free-energy relationship relating reaction rates and equilibrium constants for many reactions involving benzoic acid derivatives with meta- and para-substituents to each other with just two parameters: a substituent constant and a reaction constant.
