  2. Delta one - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_one

    A delta one product is a derivative with a linear, symmetric payoff profile. That is, a derivative that is not an option or a product with embedded options. Examples of delta one products are Exchange-traded funds, equity swaps, custom baskets, linear certificates, futures, forwards, exchange-traded notes, trackers, and Forward rate agreements ...

  3. Chemical potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_potential

    In the same way, as molecules move, react, dissolve, melt, etc., they will always tend naturally to go from a higher chemical potential to a lower one, changing the particle number, which is the conjugate variable to chemical potential. A simple example is a system of dilute molecules diffusing in a homogeneous environment

  4. Standard state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_state

    The standard state of a material (pure substance, mixture or solution) is a reference point used to calculate its properties under different conditions.A degree sign (°) or a superscript Plimsoll symbol (⦵) is used to designate a thermodynamic quantity in the standard state, such as change in enthalpy (ΔH°), change in entropy (ΔS°), or change in Gibbs free energy (ΔG°).

  5. Thermochemical equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermochemical_equation

    Physical states of reactants and products matter, as do molar concentrations. Since Δ H {\displaystyle \Delta H} is dependent on the physical state and molar concentrations in reactions, thermochemical equations must be stoichiometrically correct.

    chemistry (Proportion of "active" molecules or atoms) Arrhenius number = chemistry (ratio of activation energy to thermal energy) [1] Atomic weight: M: chemistry (mass of one atom divided by the atomic mass constant, 1 Da) Bodenstein number: Bo or Bd

  7. Physical chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_chemistry

    The key concepts of physical chemistry are the ways in which pure physics is applied to chemical problems.. One of the key concepts in classical chemistry is that all chemical compounds can be described as groups of atoms bonded together and chemical reactions can be described as the making and breaking of those bonds.

  8. Hess's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hess's_law

    Hess's law states that the change of enthalpy in a chemical reaction is the same regardless of whether the reaction takes place in one step or several steps, provided the initial and final states of the reactants and products are the same. Enthalpy is an extensive property, meaning that its value is proportional to the system size. [4]

  9. Standard enthalpy of reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_enthalpy_of_reaction

    Standard enthalpy of combustion is the enthalpy change when one mole of an organic compound reacts with molecular oxygen (O 2) to form carbon dioxide and liquid water. For example, the standard enthalpy of combustion of ethane gas refers to the reaction C 2 H 6 (g) + (7/2) O 2 (g) → 2 CO 2 (g) + 3 H 2 O (l).
