  2. Mixed oxides of nitrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixed_oxides_of_nitrogen

    Liquid phase of MON contains no nitric oxide. [2] N 2 O 4 ⇌ 2NO 2. NO 2 + NO ⇌ N 2 O 3. A broad range of compositions is available, and can be denoted as MONi, where i represents the percentage of nitric oxide in the mixture (e.g. MON3 contains 3% nitric oxide, MON25 25% nitric oxide). An upper limit is MON40 (40% by weight).

  3. Flammability diagram - Wikipedia

    Consider the first triangular diagram below, which shows all possible mixtures of methane, oxygen and nitrogen. Air is a mixture of about 21 volume percent oxygen, and 79 volume percent inerts (nitrogen). Any mixture of methane and air will therefore lie on the straight line between pure methane and pure air – this is shown as the blue air-line.

  4. Non-stoichiometric compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-stoichiometric_compound

    Origin of title phenomenon in crystallographic defects. Shown is a two-dimensional slice through a primitive cubic crystal system showing the regular square array of atoms on one face (open circles, o), and with these, places where atoms are missing from a regular site to create vacancies, displaced to an adjacent acceptable space to create a Frenkel pair, or substituted by a smaller or larger ...

  5. Gas blending - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_blending

    Gas blending is the process of mixing gases for a specific purpose where the composition of the resulting mixture is defined, and therefore, controlled. A wide range of applications include scientific and industrial processes, food production and storage and breathing gases.

  6. Mixture fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixture_fraction

    Mixture fraction is a quantity used in combustion studies that measures the mass fraction of one stream of a mixture formed by two feed streams, one the fuel stream and the other the oxidizer stream. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Both the feed streams are allowed to have inert gases. [ 3 ]

  7. Thermite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermite

    A thermite mixture using iron(III) oxide. Thermite (/ ˈ θ ɜːr m aɪ t /) [1] is a pyrotechnic composition of metal powder and metal oxide. When ignited by heat or chemical reaction, thermite undergoes an exothermic reduction-oxidation (redox) reaction. Most varieties are not explosive, but can create brief bursts of heat and high ...

  8. Viscosity models for mixtures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity_models_for_mixtures

    In a fluid mixture like a petroleum gas or oil there are lots of molecule types, and within this mixture there are families of molecule types (i.e. groups of fluid components). The simplest group is the n-alkanes which are long chains of CH 2-elements. The more CH 2-elements, or carbon atoms, the longer molecule. Critical viscosity and critical ...

  9. Chemical decomposition - Wikipedia

    The following equation is an example, where M represents the given metal: MCO 3 → MO + CO 2. A specific example is that involving calcium carbonate: CaCO 3 → CaO + CO 2. Metal chlorates also decompose when heated. In this type of decomposition reaction, a metal chloride and oxygen gas are the products. Here, again, M represents the metal:
