  2. Simple machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_machine

    A simple machine is a mechanical device that changes the direction or magnitude of a force. [1] In general, they can be defined as the simplest mechanisms that use mechanical advantage (also called leverage) to multiply force. [2] Usually the term refers to the six classical simple machines that were defined by Renaissance scientists: [3] [4 ...

  3. Neutralization (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    The equivalence point is marked in red. In chemistry, neutralization or neutralisation (see spelling differences) is a chemical reaction in which acid and a base react with an equivalent quantity of each other. In a reaction in water, neutralization results in there being no excess of hydrogen or hydroxide ions present in the solution.

  4. Zero-point energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-point_energy

    The important point of this is that the zero-point field energy H F does not affect the Heisenberg equation for a kλ since it is a c-number or constant (i.e. an ordinary number rather than an operator) and commutes with a kλ. We can therefore drop the zero-point field energy from the Hamiltonian, as is usually done.

  5. Equivalence point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_point

    The equivalence point, or stoichiometric point, of a chemical reaction is the point at which chemically equivalent quantities of reactants have been mixed. For an acid-base reaction the equivalence point is where the moles of acid and the moles of base would neutralize each other according to the chemical reaction.

  6. Titration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titration

    Acid–base titrations depend on the neutralization between an acid and a base when mixed in solution. In addition to the sample, an appropriate pH indicator is added to the titration chamber, representing the pH range of the equivalence point. The acid–base indicator indicates the endpoint of the titration by changing color.

  7. Ideal machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_machine

    A simple machine, such as a lever, pulley, or gear train, is "ideal" if the power input is equal to the power output of the device, which means there are no losses. In this case, the mechanical efficiency is 100%. Mechanical efficiency is the performance of the machine compared to its theoretical maximum as performed by an ideal machine.

  9. Acid value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_value

    In chemistry, acid value (AV, acid number, neutralization number or acidity) is a number used to quantify the acidity of a given chemical substance.It is the quantity of base (usually potassium hydroxide (KOH)), expressed as milligrams of KOH required to neutralize the acidic constituents in 1 gram of a sample.
