The dependence on m correlates with the oxidation state of the central atom, X: the higher the oxidation state the stronger the oxyacid. For example, p K a for HClO is 7.2, for HClO 2 is 2.0, for HClO 3 is −1 and HClO 4 is a strong acid ( p K a ≪ 0 ). [ 7 ]
All thermodynamic data is a non-linear function of temperature (and pressure), but there is no universal equation format for expressing the various functions. Here we describe a commonly used polynomial equation to express the temperature dependence of the heat content. A common six-term equation for the isobaric heat content is:
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.
In physical chemistry, the Arrhenius equation is a formula for the temperature dependence of reaction rates.The equation was proposed by Svante Arrhenius in 1889, based on the work of Dutch chemist Jacobus Henricus van 't Hoff who had noted in 1884 that the Van 't Hoff equation for the temperature dependence of equilibrium constants suggests such a formula for the rates of both forward and ...
For strongly temperature-dependent α, this approximation is only useful for small temperature differences ΔT. Temperature coefficients are specified for various applications, including electric and magnetic properties of materials as well as reactivity. The temperature coefficient of most of the reactions lies between 2 and 3.
The following table presents pK a values at 20 °C. Values change by about 0.01 per degree of temperature. [1] [3] Good's original 1966 paper had two older buffers (marked with italics) for comparison.
The pH-dependence of the activity displayed by enzymes and the pH-dependence of protein stability, for example, are properties that are determined by the pK a values of amino acid side chains. The p K a values of an amino acid side chain in solution is typically inferred from the p K a values of model compounds (compounds that are similar to ...
Some textbooks ignore the temperature dependence, [8] while others have defined the bond-dissociation energy to be the reaction enthalpy of homolysis at 298 K. [9] [10] [11] The bond dissociation energy is related to but slightly different from the depth of the associated potential energy well of the bond, D e, known as the electronic energy.
