  2. Acid strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_strength

    Its conjugate base is the acetate ion with K b = 10 −14 /K a = 5.7 x 10 −10 (from the relationship K a × K b = 10 −14), which certainly does not correspond to a strong base. The conjugate of a weak acid is often a weak base and vice versa .

  3. Chemistry of ascorbic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemistry_of_ascorbic_acid

    Heroin users are known to use ascorbic acid as a means to convert heroin base to a water-soluble salt so that it can be injected. [21] As justified by its reaction with iodine, it is used to negate the effects of iodine tablets in water purification. It reacts with the sterilized water, removing the taste, color, and smell of the iodine.

  4. ISO/IEC 15504 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO/IEC_15504

    ISO/IEC 15504 is the reference model for the maturity models (consisting of capability levels which in turn consist of the process attributes and further consist of generic practices) against which the assessors can place the evidence that they collect during their assessment, so that the assessors can give an overall determination of the organization's capabilities for delivering products ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Droplet-based_Microfluidics

    A study which compared the shake-flask and microfluidic liquid-Liquid extrication methods for 26 compounds and found a close correlation between the values obtained (R2= 0.994). [ 207 ] It has also been demonstrated that microfluidic liquid-liquid extraction devices can be integrated with other instruments for detection of the extracted analytes.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha-amino_acid

    The 21 proteinogenic α-amino acids found in eukaryotes, grouped according to their side chains' pK a values and charges carried at physiological pH (7.4) 2-, alpha-, or α-amino acids [21] have the generic formula H 2 NCHRCOOH in most cases, [b] where R is an organic substituent known as a "side chain". [22]

    Cover of the European Pharmacopoeia, 11th Edition. The European Pharmacopoeia [1] (Pharmacopoeia Europaea, Ph. Eur.) is a major regional pharmacopoeia which provides common quality standards throughout the pharmaceutical industry in Europe to control the quality of medicines, and the substances used to manufacture them.

  8. Carbon dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide

    The relative concentrations of CO 2, H 2 CO 3, and the deprotonated forms HCO − 3 (bicarbonate) and CO 2− 3 depend on the pH. As shown in a Bjerrum plot, in neutral or slightly alkaline water (pH > 6.5), the bicarbonate form predominates (>50%) becoming the most prevalent (>95%) at the pH of seawater. In very alkaline water (pH > 10.4), the ...
