  2. Hydrogen–deuterium exchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen–deuterium_exchange

    Hydrogen–deuterium exchange (also called H–D or H/D exchange) is a chemical reaction in which a covalently bonded hydrogen atom is replaced by a deuterium atom, or vice versa. It can be applied most easily to exchangeable protons and deuterons, where such a transformation occurs in the presence of a suitable deuterium source, without any ...

  3. Hyperconjugation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperconjugation

    Hyperconjugation can be used to rationalize a variety of chemical phenomena, including the anomeric effect, the gauche effect, the rotational barrier of ethane, the beta-silicon effect, the vibrational frequency of exocyclic carbonyl groups, and the relative stability of substituted carbocations and substituted carbon centred radicals, and the thermodynamic Zaitsev's rule for alkene stability.

  4. Charge transfer coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_transfer_coefficient

    In operating batteries and fuel cells, charge transfer coefficient is the parameter that signifies the fraction of overpotential that affects the current density.This parameter has had a mysterious significance in electrochemical kinetics for over three quarters of the previous century [citation needed].

  5. Hydrogen atom abstraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_atom_abstraction

    HAT reactions are common in various redox reactions, hydrocarbon combustion, and interactions involving cytochrome P450 that contain an Fe(V)O unit. The entity removing the hydrogen atom, known as the abstractor (X•), is often a radical itself, though in some instances, it may be a species with a closed electron shell, such as chromyl chloride.

  6. Gas exchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_exchange

    Gas exchange is the physical process by which gases move passively by diffusion across a surface. For example, this surface might be the air/water interface of a water body, the surface of a gas bubble in a liquid, a gas-permeable membrane, or a biological membrane that forms the boundary between an organism and its extracellular environment.

  7. Kinetic isotope effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_isotope_effect

    A primary kinetic isotope effect (PKIE) may be found when a bond to the isotopically labeled atom is being formed or broken. [3] [4]: 427 Depending on the way a KIE is probed (parallel measurement of rates vs. intermolecular competition vs. intramolecular competition), the observation of a PKIE is indicative of breaking/forming a bond to the isotope at the rate-limiting step, or subsequent ...

  8. Negative hyperconjugation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_hyperconjugation

    Negative hyperconjugation is seldom observed, though it can be most commonly observed when the σ *-orbital is located on certain C–F or C–O bonds. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] In negative hyperconjugation, the electron density flows in the opposite direction (from a π- or p-orbital to an empty σ * -orbital) than it does in the more common ...

  9. Hydrogen-alpha - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen-alpha

    Hydrogen-alpha, typically shortened to H-alpha or Hα, is a deep-red visible spectral line of the hydrogen atom with a wavelength of 656.28 nm in air and 656.46 nm in vacuum. It is the first spectral line in the Balmer series and is emitted when an electron falls from a hydrogen atom's third- to second-lowest energy level.
