  2. Henry's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry's_law

    Henry's law. In physical chemistry, Henry's law is a gas law that states that the amount of dissolved gas in a liquid is directly proportional to its partial pressure above the liquid. The proportionality factor is called Henry's law constant. It was formulated by the English chemist William Henry, who studied the topic in the early 19th century.

  3. Partition coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_coefficient

    Partition coefficient. In the physical sciences, a partition coefficient (P) or distribution coefficient (D) is the ratio of concentrations of a compound in a mixture of two immiscible solvents at equilibrium. This ratio is therefore a comparison of the solubilities of the solute in these two liquids. The partition coefficient generally refers ...

  4. Solubility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility

    The solution was initially prepared at 20 °C and then stored for 2 days at 4 °C. In chemistry, solubility is the ability of a substance, the solute, to form a solution with another substance, the solvent. Insolubility is the opposite property, the inability of the solute to form such a solution. The extent of the solubility of a substance in ...

  5. Carbonic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonic_acid

    Carbonic acid is a chemical compound with the chemical formula H 2 C O 3. The molecule rapidly converts to water and carbon dioxide in the presence of water. However, in the absence of water, it is quite stable at room temperature. [ 5 ][ 6 ] The interconversion of carbon dioxide and carbonic acid is related to the breathing cycle of animals ...

  6. Carbon dioxide (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide_(data_page)

    The table below gives thermodynamic data of liquid CO 2 in equilibrium with its vapor at various temperatures. Heat content data, heat of vaporization, and entropy values are relative to the liquid state at 0 °C temperature and 3483 kPa pressure. To convert heat values to joules per mole values, multiply by 44.095 g/mol.

  7. Hansen solubility parameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hansen_solubility_parameter

    Hansen solubility parameters were developed by Charles M. Hansen in his Ph.D thesis in 1967 [1][2] as a way of predicting if one material will dissolve in another and form a solution. [3] They are based on the idea that like dissolves like where one molecule is defined as being 'like' another if it bonds to itself in a similar way.

  8. Solubility equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility_equilibrium

    Solubility equilibrium. Solubility equilibrium is a type of dynamic equilibrium that exists when a chemical compound in the solid state is in chemical equilibrium with a solution of that compound. The solid may dissolve unchanged, with dissociation, or with chemical reaction with another constituent of the solution, such as acid or alkali.

  9. Henderson–Hasselbalch equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henderson–Hasselbalch...

    Henderson–Hasselbalch equation. In chemistry and biochemistry, the Henderson–Hasselbach equation relates the pH of a chemical solution of a weak acid to the numerical value of the acid dissociation constant, Ka, of acid and the ratio of the concentrations, of the acid and its conjugate base in an equilibrium.
