  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. 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.

  4. Paschen's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paschen's_law

    If the electron is in an electric field of 43 MV/m, it will be accelerated and acquire 21.5 eV of energy in 0.5 μm of travel in the direction of the field. The first ionization energy needed to dislodge an electron from nitrogen molecule is about 15.6 eV. The accelerated electron will acquire more than enough energy to ionize a nitrogen molecule.

  5. Marcus theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcus_theory

    The original classical Marcus theory for outer sphere electron transfer reactions demonstrates the importance of the solvent and leads the way to the calculation of the Gibbs free energy of activation, using the polarization properties of the solvent, the size of the reactants, the transfer distance and the Gibbs free energy of the redox reaction.

  6. 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]

  7. 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.

  8. Hammett equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammett_equation

    The carbon with Z is defined as C1(ipso) and fluorinated carbon as C4(para). This definition is followed even for Z = H. The left-hand side of is called CEBE shift or ΔCEBE, and is defined as the difference between the CEBE of the fluorinated carbon atom in p-F-C 6 H 4-Z and that of the fluorinated carbon in the reference molecule FC 6 H 5.

  9. 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 ).
