  2. Solvation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvation

    Strong solvent–solute interactions make the process of solvation more favorable. One way to compare how favorable the dissolution of a solute is in different solvents is to consider the free energy of transfer. The free energy of transfer quantifies the free energy difference between dilute solutions of a solute in two different solvents.

  3. Heat of combustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_of_combustion

    For a fuel of composition C c H h O o N n, the (higher) heat of combustion is 419 kJ/mol × (c + 0.3 h − 0.5 o) usually to a good approximation (±3%), [2] [3] though it gives poor results for some compounds such as (gaseous) formaldehyde and carbon monoxide, and can be significantly off if o + n > c, such as for glycerine dinitrate, C 3 H 6 ...

  4. Non-random two-liquid model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-random_two-liquid_model

    VLE of the mixture of chloroform and methanol plus NRTL fit and extrapolation to different pressures. The non-random two-liquid model [1] (abbreviated NRTL model) is an activity coefficient model introduced by Renon and Prausnitz in 1968 that correlates the activity coefficients of a compound with its mole fractions in the liquid phase concerned.

  5. Marcus theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcus_theory

    In Marcus theory the energy belonging to the transfer of a unit charge (Δe = 1) is called the (outer sphere) reorganization energy λ o, i.e. the energy of a state where the polarization would correspond to the transfer of a unit amount of charge, but the real charge distribution is that before the transfer. [9]

  6. Hildebrand solubility parameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hildebrand_solubility...

    The Hildebrand solubility parameter is the square root of the cohesive energy density: δ = Δ H v − R T V m . {\displaystyle \delta ={\sqrt {\frac {\Delta H_{v}-RT}{V_{m}}}}.} The cohesive energy density is the amount of energy needed to completely remove a unit volume of molecules from their neighbours to infinite separation (an ideal gas ).

  7. Rotamer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotamer

    The energy difference between gauche and anti is 0.9 kcal/mol associated with the strain energy of the gauche conformer. The anti conformer is, therefore, the most stable (≈ 0 kcal/mol). The three eclipsed conformations with dihedral angles of 0°, 120°, and 240° are transition states between conformers. [6]

  8. Transport phenomena - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_phenomena

    There are some notable similarities in equations for momentum, energy, and mass transfer [7] which can all be transported by diffusion, as illustrated by the following examples: Mass: the spreading and dissipation of odors in air is an example of mass diffusion. Energy: the conduction of heat in a solid material is an example of heat diffusion.

  9. Townsend discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Townsend_discharge

    α n is the first Townsend ionisation coefficient, expressing the number of ion pairs generated per unit length (e.g. meter) by a negative ion moving from cathode to anode, and; d is the distance between the plates of the device.
