  2. Potassium chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_chloride

    Potassium chloride (KCl, or potassium salt) is a metal halide salt composed of potassium and chlorine. It is odorless and has a white or colorless vitreous crystal appearance. The solid dissolves readily in water, and its solutions have a salt-like taste. Potassium chloride can be obtained from ancient dried lake deposits. [7]

  3. Kirkendall effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirkendall_effect

    The Kirkendall effect is the motion of the interface between two metals that occurs due to the difference in diffusion rates of the metal atoms. The effect can be observed, for example, by placing insoluble markers at the interface between a pure metal and an alloy containing that metal, and heating to a temperature where atomic diffusion is reasonable for the given timescale; the boundary ...

  4. Activity coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activity_coefficient

    In thermodynamics, an activity coefficient is a factor used to account for deviation of a mixture of chemical substances from ideal behaviour. [1] In an ideal mixture, the microscopic interactions between each pair of chemical species are the same (or macroscopically equivalent, the enthalpy change of solution and volume variation in mixing is zero) and, as a result, properties of the mixtures ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-random_two-liquid_model

    VLE of the mixture of chloroform and methanol plus NRTL fit and extrapolation to different pressures. The non-random two-liquid model [1] (abbreviated NRTL model) is an activity coefficient model introduced by Renon and Prausnitz in 1968 that correlates the activity coefficients of a compound with its mole fractions in the liquid phase concerned.

  6. Potassium chlorate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_chlorate

    Thus, it may be simply placed in a test tube and heated over a burner. If the test tube is equipped with a one-holed stopper and hose, warm oxygen can be drawn off. The reaction is as follows: 2 KClO 3 (s) + MnO 2 (cat) → 3 O 2 (g) + 2 KCl(s) Heating it in the absence of a catalyst converts it into potassium perchlorate: [8] 4 KClO 3 → 3 ...

  7. Ringer's solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringer's_solution

    Ringer's solution is a solution of several salts dissolved in water for the purpose of creating an isotonic solution relative to the body fluids of an animal. Ringer's solution typically contains sodium chloride , potassium chloride , calcium chloride and sodium bicarbonate , with the last used to buffer the pH .

  8. Pitzer equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitzer_equations

    The quantities λ ij (I) represent the short-range interactions in the presence of solvent between solute particles i and j. This binary interaction parameter or second virial coefficient depends on ionic strength, on the particular species i and j and the temperature and pressure. The quantities μ ijk represent the interactions between three ...

  9. Hydrophilic interaction chromatography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrophilic_interaction...

    Hydrophilic interaction chromatography (or hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography, HILIC) [1] is a variant of normal phase liquid chromatography that partly overlaps with other chromatographic applications such as ion chromatography and reversed phase liquid chromatography.
