  2. Inorganic nonaqueous solvent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inorganic_nonaqueous_solvent

    An acid which has more of a tendency to donate a hydrogen ion than the limiting acid will be a strong acid in the solvent considered, and will exist mostly or entirely in its dissociated form. Likewise, the limiting base in a given solvent is the solvate ion, such as OH - ( hydroxide ) ion, in water.

    Economists commonly use the term recession to mean either a period of two successive calendar quarters each having negative growth [clarification needed] of real gross domestic product [1] [2] [3] —that is, of the total amount of goods and services produced within a country—or that provided by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER): "...a significant decline in economic activity ...

  5. Markovnikov's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markovnikov's_rule

    The rule states that with the addition of a protic acid HX or other polar reagent to an asymmetric alkene, the acid hydrogen (H) or electropositive part gets attached to the carbon with more hydrogen substituents, and the halide (X) group or electronegative part gets attached to the carbon with more alkyl substituents. This is in contrast to ...

  6. Protic solvent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protic_solvent

    In chemistry, a protic solvent is a solvent that has a hydrogen atom bound to an oxygen (as in a hydroxyl group −OH), a nitrogen (as in an amine group −NH 2 or −NH−), or fluoride (as in hydrogen fluoride).

  7. Protic ionic liquid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protic_ionic_liquid

    A protic ionic liquid is an ionic liquid that is formed via proton transfer from a Brønsted acid to a Brønsted base. [1] Unlike many other types of ionic liquids, which are formed through a series of synthesis steps, [ 2 ] protic ionic liquids are easier to create because the acid and base must simply be mixed together.
