  2. Ketonic decarboxylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketonic_decarboxylation

    The dry distillation of calcium acetate to give acetone was reported by Charles Friedel in 1858 [3] and until World War I ketonization was the premier commercial method for its production. [ 4 ] Ketonic decarboxylation of propanoic acid over a manganese(II) oxide catalyst in a tube furnace affords 3-pentanone .

  3. Calcium metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_metabolism

    Calcium regulation in the human body. [6]The plasma ionized calcium concentration is regulated within narrow limits (1.3–1.5 mmol/L). This is achieved by both the parafollicular cells of the thyroid gland, and the parathyroid glands constantly sensing (i.e. measuring) the concentration of calcium ions in the blood flowing through them.

  4. Adipic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adipic_acid

    Structural formula of the adipate dianion. The anionic (HO 2 C(CH 2) 4 CO 2 −) and dianionic (− O 2 C(CH 2) 4 CO 2 −) forms of adipic acid are referred to as adipates. An adipate compound is a carboxylate salt or ester of the acid. Some adipate salts are used as acidity regulators, including: Sodium adipate (E number E356) Potassium ...

  5. Fatty acid metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatty_acid_metabolism

    This means that fatty acids can hold more than six times the amount of energy per unit of stored mass. Put another way, if the human body relied on carbohydrates to store energy, then a person would need to carry 31 kg (67.5 lb) of hydrated glycogen to have the energy equivalent to 4.6 kg (10 lb) of fat. [10]

  6. Dry distillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_distillation

    Dry distillation is the heating of solid materials to produce gaseous products (which may condense into liquids or solids). The method may involve pyrolysis or thermolysis, or it may not (for instance, a simple mixture of ice and glass could be separated without breaking any chemical bonds, but organic matter contains a greater diversity of molecules, some of which are likely to break).

  7. Energy level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_level

    In a very general way, energy level differences between electronic states are larger, differences between vibrational levels are intermediate, and differences between rotational levels are smaller, although there can be overlap. Translational energy levels are practically continuous and can be calculated as kinetic energy using classical mechanics.

  9. Molecular distillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_distillation

    Molecular distillation is a type of short-path vacuum distillation, characterized by an extremely low vacuum pressure, 0.01 torr or below, which is performed using a molecular still. [1] It is a process of separation, purification and concentration of natural products, complex and thermally sensitive molecules for example vitamins and ...
