  2. Hydrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrolysis

    Acid–base-catalysed hydrolyses are very common; one example is the hydrolysis of amides or esters. Their hydrolysis occurs when the nucleophile (a nucleus-seeking agent, e.g., water or hydroxyl ion) attacks the carbon of the carbonyl group of the ester or amide. In an aqueous base, hydroxyl ions are better nucleophiles than polar molecules ...

    [10] [22] Examples include: initiates polymerisation reactions of unsaturated compounds, such as polyethers; as a catalyst in some isomerization, acylation, [23] alkylation, esterification, dehydration, [24] condensation, Mukaiyama aldol addition, and other reactions [25] [citation needed]

  4. Isochoric process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isochoric_process

    The ideal Otto cycle is an example of an isochoric process when it is assumed that the burning of the gasoline-air mixture in an internal combustion engine car is instantaneous. There is an increase in the temperature and the pressure of the gas inside the cylinder while the volume remains the same.

  5. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    If the elements of the cylinder are perpendicular to the planes containing the bases, the cylinder is a right cylinder, otherwise it is called an oblique cylinder. If the bases are disks (regions whose boundary is a circle) the cylinder is called a circular cylinder. In some elementary treatments, a cylinder always means a circular cylinder. [2]

    Thus we find the maximum speed in the flow, V = 2U, in the low pressure on the sides of the cylinder. A value of V > U is consistent with conservation of the volume of fluid. With the cylinder blocking some of the flow, V must be greater than U somewhere in the plane through the center of the cylinder and transverse to the flow.

  9. Hydrolysis constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrolysis_constant

    The word hydrolysis is applied to chemical reactions in which a substance reacts with water. In organic chemistry, the products of the reaction are usually molecular, being formed by combination with H and OH groups (e.g., hydrolysis of an ester to an alcohol and a carboxylic acid).
