  2. Hydrazines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrazines

    Hydrazines (R 2 N−NR 2) are a class of chemical compounds with two nitrogen atoms linked via a covalent bond and which carry from one up to four alkyl or aryl substituents. . Hydrazines can be considered as derivatives of the inorganic hydrazine (H 2 N−NH 2), in which one or more hydrogen atoms have been replaced by hydrocarbon grou

  3. Hydrazine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrazine

    Hydrazine is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula N 2 H 4.It is a simple pnictogen hydride, and is a colourless flammable liquid with an ammonia-like odour.Hydrazine is highly hazardous unless handled in solution as, for example, hydrazine hydrate (N 2 H 4 ·xH 2 O).

  4. Azine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azine

    The generic formula of an azine. For an aldazine, R 2 = H.. Azines are a functional class of organic compounds with the connectivity RR'C=N-N=CRR'. These compounds are the product of the condensation of hydrazine with ketones and aldehydes, although in practice they are often made by alternative routes.

  5. Olin Raschig process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olin_Raschig_process

    The Olin Raschig process is a chemical process for the production of hydrazine.The main steps in this process, patented by German chemist Friedrich Raschig in 1906 and one of three reactions named after him, are the formation of monochloramine from ammonia and hypochlorite, and the subsequent reaction of monochloramine with ammonia towards hydrazine. [1]

  6. Peroxide process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peroxide_process

    The main advantage of the peroxide process to hydrazine relative to the traditional Olin Raschig process is that it does not coproduce salt. In this respect, the peroxide process is an example of green chemistry. Since many millions of kilograms of hydrazine are produced annually, this method is of both commercial and environmental significance ...

  7. Transpiration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transpiration

    As a water molecule evaporates from the leaf's surface it pulls on the adjacent water molecule, creating a continuous water flow through the plant. [ 6 ] Two major factors influence the rate of water flow from the soil to the roots: the hydraulic conductivity of the soil and the magnitude of the pressure gradient through the soil.

  8. Azane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azane

    diazane (or hydrazine), N 2 H 4 - two nitrogen and four hydrogen triazane, N 3 H 5 - three nitrogen and five hydrogen. Azanes with three or more nitrogen atoms are named by adding the suffix-azane to the appropriate numerical multiplier prefix. Hence, triazane, N 3 H 5; tetrazane or tetraazane, N 4 H 6; pentazane or pentaazane, N 5 H 7 ...

  9. Absorption of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorption_of_water

    The continuity of the water column remains intact due to the cohesion between the molecules and it acts as a rope. Roots simply act as a passive organ of absorption. As transpiration proceeds, water absorption occurs simultaneously to compensate the water loss from the leaf end. Most volume of water entering plants is by means of passive ...
