  2. Dissociation (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    Dissociation in chemistry is a general process in which molecules (or ionic compounds such as salts, or complexes) separate or split into other things such as atoms, ...

  3. Dissociative adsorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissociative_adsorption

    The dissociation involves cleaving of the molecular bonds in the adsorbate, and formation of new bonds with the substrate. Breaking the atomic bonds of the dissociating molecule requires a large amount of energy, thus dissociative adsorption is an example of chemisorption , where strong adsorbate-substrate bonds are created.

  4. Dissociation constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissociation_constant

    In chemistry, biochemistry, and pharmacology, a dissociation constant (K D) is a specific type of equilibrium constant that measures the propensity of a larger object to separate (dissociate) reversibly into smaller components, as when a complex falls apart into its component molecules, or when a salt splits up into its component ions.

  5. Bond cleavage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_cleavage

    In chemistry, bond cleavage, or bond fission, is the splitting of chemical bonds. This can be generally referred to as dissociation when a molecule is cleaved into two or more fragments. [1] In general, there are two classifications for bond cleavage: homolytic and heterolytic, depending on the nature of the process.

  6. Dissociation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissociation

    Dissociation, in the wide sense of the word, is an act of disuniting or separating a complex object into parts. Dissociation may also refer to: Dissociation (chemistry) , general process in which molecules or ionic compounds (complexes, or salts) split into smaller particles, usually in a reversible manner

    Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acid–base extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...

  8. Science fair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_fair

    A science fair or engineering fair is an event hosted by a school that offers students the opportunity to experience the practices of science and engineering for themselves. In the United States, the Next Generation Science Standards makes experiencing the practices of science and engineering one of the three pillars of science education.

  9. Dissociation rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissociation_rate

    The dissociation rate in chemistry, biochemistry, and pharmacology is the rate or speed at which a ligand dissociates from a protein, for instance, a receptor. [1] It is an important factor in the binding affinity and intrinsic activity (efficacy) of a ligand at a receptor. [ 1 ]
