In organic chemistry, a hydrate is a compound formed by the hydration, i.e. "Addition of water or of the elements of water (i.e. H and OH) to a molecular entity". [5] For example: ethanol , CH 3 −CH 2 −OH , is the product of the hydration reaction of ethene , CH 2 =CH 2 , formed by the addition of H to one C and OH to the other C, and so ...
The general chemical equation for the hydration of alkenes is the following: RRC=CH 2 + H 2 O → RRC(OH)-CH 3. A hydroxyl group (OH −) attaches to one carbon of the double bond, and a proton (H +) adds to the other. The reaction is highly exothermic. In the first step, the alkene acts as a nucleophile and attacks the proton, following ...
In inorganic chemistry, mineral hydration is a reaction which adds water to the crystal structure of a mineral, usually creating a new mineral, commonly called a hydrate. In geological terms, the process of mineral hydration is known as retrograde alteration and is a process occurring in retrograde metamorphism.
A salt with associated water of crystallization is known as a hydrate. The structure of hydrates can be quite elaborate, because of the existence of hydrogen bonds that define polymeric structures. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Historically, the structures of many hydrates were unknown, and the dot in the formula of a hydrate was employed to specify the ...
NMR is the most informative technique for determining hydration numbers in solution. 1 H and 17 O NMR signals, even for paramagnetic species, can be interpreted to give information on hydration number.
An AFm phase is an "alumina, ferric oxide, monosubstituted" phase, or aluminate ferrite monosubstituted, or Al 2 O 3, Fe 2 O 3 mono, in cement chemist notation (CCN). AFm phases are important hydration products in the hydration of Portland cements and hydraulic cements.
Calcium silicate hydrates (CSH or C-S-H) are the main products of the hydration of Portland cement and are primarily responsible for the strength of cement-based materials. [1] They are the main binding phase (the "glue") in most concrete .
Iron(III) oxide-hydroxide or ferric oxyhydroxide [2] is the chemical compound of iron, oxygen, and hydrogen with formula FeO(OH). The compound is often encountered as one of its hydrates, FeO(OH) ·n H 2 O [rust]. The monohydrate FeO(OH) · H 2 O is often referred to as iron(III) hydroxide Fe(OH) 3, [3] hydrated iron oxide, yellow iron oxide ...
