  2. Liquid nitrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_nitrogen

    Liquid nitrogen is a compact and readily transported source of dry nitrogen gas, as it does not require pressurization. Further, its ability to maintain temperatures far below the freezing point of water, specific heat of 1040 J ⋅kg −1 ⋅K −1 and heat of vaporization of 200 kJ⋅kg −1 makes it extremely useful in a wide range of ...

  3. Nitrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen

    For example, in 2012, a young woman in England had to have her stomach removed after ingesting a cocktail made with liquid nitrogen. [109] Because the liquid-to-gas expansion ratio of nitrogen is 1:694 at 20 °C, a tremendous amount of force can be generated if liquid nitrogen is rapidly vaporised in an enclosed space. In an incident on January ...

  4. Amine value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amine_value

    It is the number of Nitrogens x 56.1 (Mwt of KOH) x 1000 (convert to milligrams) divided by molecular mass of the amine functional compound. So using Tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA) as an example: Mwt = 189, number of nitrogen atoms = 5 So 5 x 1000 x 56.1/189 = 1484. So the Amine Value of TEPA = 1484

  5. Urea - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urea

    The structure of the molecule of urea is O=C(−NH 2) 2.The urea molecule is planar when in a solid crystal because of sp 2 hybridization of the N orbitals. [8] [9] It is non-planar with C 2 symmetry when in the gas phase [10] or in aqueous solution, [9] with C–N–H and H–N–H bond angles that are intermediate between the trigonal planar angle of 120° and the tetrahedral angle of 109.5°.

  6. Klinkenberg correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klinkenberg_correction

    The pressure drop across the sample and the flow rate are measured and permeability is calculated using Darcy's law. Normally, either nitrogen or brine can be used as a fluid. When high rates of flow can be maintained, the results are comparable. At low rates, air permeability will be higher than brine permeability. This is because gas does not ...

  7. Dinitrogen tetroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinitrogen_tetroxide

    The liquid is also colorless but can appear as a brownish yellow liquid due to the presence of NO 2 according to the following equilibrium: [9] N 2 O 4 ⇌ 2 NO 2 (ΔH = +57.23 kJ/mol) Higher temperatures push the equilibrium towards nitrogen dioxide. Inevitably, some dinitrogen tetroxide is a component of smog containing nitrogen dioxide.

  8. Cryogenics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryogenics

    Nitrogen is a liquid under −195.8 °C (77.3 K).. In physics, cryogenics is the production and behaviour of materials at very low temperatures.. The 13th International Institute of Refrigeration's (IIR) International Congress of Refrigeration (held in Washington, DC in 1971) endorsed a universal definition of "cryogenics" and "cryogenic" by accepting a threshold of 120 K (−153 °C) to ...

  9. Dumas method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dumas_method

    The measured signal from the thermal conductivity detector for the unknown sample can then be converted into a nitrogen content. As with the Kjeldahl method , conversion of the concentration of nitrogen in a sample to the crude protein content is performed using conversion factors which depend on the particular amino acid sequence of the ...
