  2. Compressibility factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility_factor

    Compressibility factor values are usually obtained by calculation from equations of state (EOS), such as the virial equation which take compound-specific empirical constants as input. For a gas that is a mixture of two or more pure gases (air or natural gas, for example), the gas composition must be known before compressibility can be calculated.

  3. Arrhenius equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrhenius_equation

    In physical chemistry, the Arrhenius equation is a formula for the temperature dependence of reaction rates.The equation was proposed by Svante Arrhenius in 1889, based on the work of Dutch chemist Jacobus Henricus van 't Hoff who had noted in 1884 that the Van 't Hoff equation for the temperature dependence of equilibrium constants suggests such a formula for the rates of both forward and ...

  4. Ideal gas law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_gas_law

    How much gas is present could be specified by giving the mass instead of the chemical amount of gas. Therefore, an alternative form of the ideal gas law may be useful. The chemical amount, n (in moles), is equal to total mass of the gas (m) (in kilograms) divided by the molar mass, M (in kilograms per mole): =.

  5. Arrhenius plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrhenius_plot

    In chemical kinetics, an Arrhenius plot displays the logarithm of a reaction rate constant, (⁡ (), ordinate axis) plotted against reciprocal of the temperature (/, abscissa). [1] Arrhenius plots are often used to analyze the effect of temperature on the rates of chemical reactions.

  7. Strain (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    Allylic strain, or A 1,3 strain is closely associated to syn-pentane strain. An example of allylic strain can be seen in the compound 2-pentene. It's possible for the ethyl substituent of the olefin to rotate such that the terminal methyl group is brought near to the vicinal methyl group of the olefin. These types of compounds usually take a ...

  8. Gas constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_constant

    The molar gas constant (also known as the gas constant, universal gas constant, or ideal gas constant) is denoted by the symbol R or R. It is the molar equivalent to the Boltzmann constant , expressed in units of energy per temperature increment per amount of substance , rather than energy per temperature increment per particle .

  9. Strain (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_(mechanics)

    In mechanics, strain is defined as relative deformation, compared to a reference position configuration. Different equivalent choices may be made for the expression of a strain field depending on whether it is defined with respect to the initial or the final configuration of the body and on whether the metric tensor or its dual is considered.
