  2. Isopentane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isopentane

    Isopentane is used, in conjunction with dry ice or liquid nitrogen, to freeze tissues for cryosectioning in histology. [ 12 ] Isopentane is a major component (sometimes 30% or more) of natural gasoline , an analog of common petroleum -derived gasoline that is condensed from natural gas. [ 4 ]

  3. Isobutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isobutane

    R600-Isobutane 13.6Kg Cylinder by Starke Hvac. Isobutane, also known as i-butane, 2-methylpropane or methylpropane, is a chemical compound with molecular formula HC(CH 3) 3.It is an isomer of butane.

  4. Pentane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentane

    Pentane is an organic compound with the formula C 5 H 12 —that is, an alkane with five carbon atoms. The term may refer to any of three structural isomers, or to a mixture of them: in the IUPAC nomenclature, however, pentane means exclusively the n-pentane isomer, in which case pentanes refers to a mixture of them; the other two are called isopentane (methylbutane) and neopentane ...

  5. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    The phase diagram shows, in pressure–temperature space, the lines of equilibrium or phase boundaries between the three phases of solid, liquid, and gas. The curves on the phase diagram show the points where the free energy (and other derived properties) becomes non-analytic: their derivatives with respect to the coordinates (temperature and ...

  6. CALPHAD - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CALPHAD

    CALPHAD stands for Computer Coupling of Phase Diagrams and Thermochemistry, a methodology introduced in 1970 by Larry Kaufman, originally known as CALculation of PHAse Diagrams. [1] [2] [3] An equilibrium phase diagram is usually a diagram with axes for temperature and composition of a chemical system. It shows the regions where substances or ...

  7. Schreinemaker's analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schreinemaker's_analysis

    A generic phase diagram with unspecified axes; the invariant point is marked in red, metastable extensions labeled in blue, relevant reactions noted on stable ends of univariant lines. This rule is geometrically sound in the construction of phase diagrams since for every metastable reaction, there must be a phase that is relatively stable. This ...

  8. Alkane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkane

    "Paraffin" is a general term and often does not distinguish between pure compounds and mixtures of isomers, i.e., compounds of the same chemical formula, e.g., pentane and isopentane. In IUPAC. The following trivial names are retained in the IUPAC system: isobutane for 2-methylpropane; isopentane for 2-methylbutane; neopentane for 2,2 ...

  9. Vapor–liquid equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor–liquid_equilibrium

    Boiling-point diagram. The preceding equilibrium equations are typically applied for each phase (liquid or vapor) individually, but the result can be plotted in a single diagram. In a binary boiling-point diagram, temperature (T ) (or sometimes pressure) is graphed vs. x 1. At any given temperature (or pressure) where both phases are present ...
