    These two steps have different reaction rates, the first one is reversible and faster than the second reaction, which is slower, so this means that the determining step is the second reaction and this is used to determine the observed reaction rate.

  3. Sodium hydroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_hydroxide

    As one of the simplest hydroxides, sodium hydroxide is frequently used alongside neutral water and acidic hydrochloric acid to demonstrate the pH scale to chemistry students. [ 14 ] Sodium hydroxide is used in many industries: in the making of wood pulp and paper , textiles , drinking water , soaps and detergents , and as a drain cleaner .

  4. Fatty acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatty_acid

    There are two series of essential fatty acids: one has a double bond three carbon atoms away from the methyl end; the other has a double bond six carbon atoms away from the methyl end. Humans lack the ability to introduce double bonds in fatty acids beyond carbons 9 and 10, as counted from the carboxylic acid side. [ 35 ]

    The simplest of such compounds is rubredoxin, which has only one iron atom coordinated to four sulfur atoms from cysteine residues in the surrounding peptide chains. Another important class of iron–sulfur proteins is the ferredoxins, which have multiple iron atoms. Transferrin does not belong to either of these classes.

    When it is "on", the rotating magnet has its N pole in one half of the base, and the S pole in the other half. The two halves of the base plus the rotating magnet form a sort of horseshoe magnet. When its attached to a piece of metal (across the two halves of the base) it makes a magnetic circuit which it is very strong.

  7. Perovskite solar cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perovskite_solar_cell

    Crystal structure of CH 3 NH 3 PbX 3 perovskites (X=I, Br and/or Cl). The methylammonium cation (CH 3 NH 3 +) is surrounded by PbX 6 octahedra. [13]The name "perovskite solar cell" is derived from the ABX 3 crystal structure of the absorber materials, referred to as perovskite structure, where A and B are cations and X is an anion.
