  2. Limiting reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limiting_reagent

    The limiting reagent must be identified in order to calculate the percentage yield of a reaction since the theoretical yield is defined as the amount of product obtained when the limiting reagent reacts completely.

  3. Rate-determining step - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate-determining_step

    As an example, consider the gas-phase reaction NO 2 + CO → NO + CO 2.If this reaction occurred in a single step, its reaction rate (r) would be proportional to the rate of collisions between NO 2 and CO molecules: r = k[NO 2][CO], where k is the reaction rate constant, and square brackets indicate a molar concentration.

  4. Pauling's rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pauling's_rules

    The radius ratio rules are a first approximation which have some success in predicting coordination numbers, but many exceptions do exist. [3] In a set of over 5000 oxides, only 66% of coordination environments agree with Pauling's first rule. Oxides formed with alkali or alkali-earth metal cations that contain multiple cation coordinations are ...

  5. Diffusion-controlled reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion-controlled_reaction

    Suppose is very large compared to the diffusion process, so A and B react immediately. This is the classic diffusion limited reaction, and the corresponding diffusion limited rate constant, can be obtained from 8 as =.

  6. Thermodynamic limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_limit

    The thermodynamic limit is essentially a consequence of the central limit theorem of probability theory. The internal energy of a gas of N molecules is the sum of order N contributions, each of which is approximately independent, and so the central limit theorem predicts that the ratio of the size of the fluctuations to the mean is of order 1/N 1/2.

  7. Glossary of chemistry terms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_chemistry_terms

    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 ...

    A limit order will not shift the market the way a market order might. The downsides to limit orders can be relatively modest: You may have to wait and wait for your price.

  9. Diluent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diluent

    In underwater diving a diluent gas is generally used to reduce the oxygen fraction of the breathing gas to a non-toxic level appropriate to the ambient pressure at which it is to be breathed. Diluent gases for this use are metabolically inert and non-toxic, but may have some level of narcotic effect at high partial pressure.
