The Alchian–Allen effect was described in 1964 by Armen Alchian and William R Allen in the book University Economics (now called Exchange and Production [1]).It states that when the prices of two substitute goods, such as high and low grades of the same product, are both increased by a fixed per-unit amount such as a transportation cost or a lump-sum tax, consumption will shift toward the ...
The first law of alchemy can already be considered similar to the first law of thermodynamics, or Conservation of Mass/Energy. -- Xavier Valentine 22:58, 26 July 2005 (UTC) It could well be; the alchemists could unwittingly have made the assumption that entropy/order were free, and that mass was the only restriction. -- maru (talk) contribs 07: ...

Alchemy (from the Arabic word al-kīmīā, الكیمیاء) is an ancient branch of natural philosophy, a philosophical and protoscientific tradition that was historically practised in China, India, the Muslim world, and Europe. [1]

The Eigen-Wilkins mechanism, named after chemists Manfred Eigen and R. G. Wilkins, [5] is a mechanism and rate law in coordination chemistry governing associative substitution reactions of octahedral complexes. It was discovered for substitution by ammonia of a chromium-(III) hexaaqua complex.
Maybe she was going for shock value? Fans have flooded Giada De Laurentiis' latest TikTok video to express their concern after the former Food Network star shared a, well, surprising new recipe to ...
The most fundamental concept in chemistry is the law of conservation of mass, which states that there is no detectable change in the quantity of matter during an ordinary chemical reaction. Modern physics shows that it is actually energy that is conserved, and that energy and mass are related; a concept which becomes important in nuclear chemistry
