  2. Fischer–Tropsch process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fischer–Tropsch_process

    The Fischer–Tropsch process involves a series of chemical reactions that produce a variety of hydrocarbons, ideally having the formula (C n H 2n+2). The more useful reactions produce alkanes as follows: [7] (2n + 1) H 2 + n CO → C n H 2n+2 + n H 2 O. where n is typically 10–20. The formation of methane (n = 1) is unwanted.

  3. Chemical potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_potential

    [1] [2] At chemical equilibrium or in phase equilibrium, the total sum of the product of chemical potentials and stoichiometric coefficients is zero, as the free energy is at a minimum. [3] [4] [5] In a system in diffusion equilibrium, the chemical potential of any chemical species is uniformly the same everywhere throughout the system. [6]

    Molecular weights of the species in the representative octane combustion are 114, 32, 44, and 18 for C 8 H 18, O 2, CO 2, and H 2 O, respectively; therefore one kilogram (2.2 lb) of fuel reacts with 3.51 kilograms (7.7 lb) of oxygen to produce 3.09 kilograms (6.8 lb) of carbon dioxide and 1.42 kilograms (3.1 lb) of water.

  6. Carbon dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide

    The symmetry of a carbon dioxide molecule is linear and centrosymmetric at its equilibrium geometry. The length of the carbon–oxygen bond in carbon dioxide is 116.3 pm, noticeably shorter than the roughly 140 pm length of a typical single C–O bond, and shorter than most other C–O multiply bonded functional groups such as carbonyls.

  7. Life-cycle assessment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life-cycle_assessment

    Life cycle assessment (LCA) is sometimes referred to synonymously as life cycle analysis in the scholarly and agency report literatures. [7] [1] [8] Also, due to the general nature of an LCA study of examining the life cycle impacts from raw material extraction (cradle) through disposal (grave), it is sometimes referred to as "cradle-to-grave analysis".

    So, to answer your question, the magma would do whatever it damn well pleased, i.e. there would be no gravitational force working on it, though there could be other forces. --fvw * 10:51, September 1, 2005 (UTC) See also Hollow Earth. Thryduulf 11:02, 1 September 2005 (UTC) Thanks for the answer but it leads me to another question.

  9. Metal–organic framework - Wikipedia

    MOF-177 consists of [Zn 4 O] 6+ clusters interconnected by 1,3,5-benzenetribenzoate organic linkers and has a measured BET surface area of 4630 m 2 g −1. Another exemplary material is PCN-61 which exhibits a hydrogen uptake of 6.24 wt % and 42.5 g L −1 at 35 bar and 77 K and 2.25 wt % at atmospheric pressure. [131]
