  2. Homogeneity and heterogeneity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogeneity_and_heterogeneity

    Homogeneity and heterogeneity; only ' b ' is homogeneous Homogeneity and heterogeneity are concepts relating to the uniformity of a substance, process or image.A homogeneous feature is uniform in composition or character (i.e., color, shape, size, weight, height, distribution, texture, language, income, disease, temperature, radioactivity, architectural design, etc.); one that is heterogeneous ...

  3. Homogenization (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogenization_(chemistry)

    Homogenization (from "homogeneous;" Greek, homogenes: homos, same + genos, kind) [5] is the process of converting two immiscible liquids (i.e. liquids that are not soluble, in all proportions, one in another) into an emulsion [6] (Mixture of two or more liquids that are generally immiscible).

  4. Homogeneity (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogeneity_(disambiguation)

    Homogeneous catalysis, a sequence of chemical reactions that involve a catalyst in the same phase as the reactants Homogeneous (chemistry) , a property of a mixture showing no variation in properties Homogenization (chemistry) , intensive mixing of mutually insoluble substance or groups of substance to obtain a soluble suspension or constant

  5. Asymptotic homogenization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptotic_homogenization

    Of course, all matter is inhomogeneous at some scale, but frequently it is convenient to treat it as homogeneous. A good example is the continuum concept which is used in continuum mechanics . Under this assumption, materials such as fluids , solids , etc. can be treated as homogeneous materials and associated with these materials are material ...

    Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acid–base extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...

  7. Isotropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotropy

    The cosmological principle, which underpins much of modern cosmology (including the Big Bang theory of the evolution of the observable universe), assumes that the universe is both isotropic and homogeneous, meaning that the universe has no preferred location (is the same everywhere) and has no preferred direction. [2]

  8. Dispersity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersity

    The result is a much more broad molecular weight distribution, which leads to much larger dispersities. For a homogeneous CSTR, the dispersity is proportional to the square root of the Damköhler number, but for a heterogeneous CSTR, dispersity is proportional to the natural log of the Damköhler number. [9]

  9. Homogeneous coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogeneous_coordinates

    Homogeneous coordinates are not uniquely determined by a point, so a function defined on the coordinates, say (,,), does not determine a function defined on points as with Cartesian coordinates. But a condition f ( x , y , z ) = 0 {\displaystyle f(x,y,z)=0} defined on the coordinates, as might be used to describe a curve, determines a condition ...
