  2. Single displacement reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_displacement_reaction

    A single-displacement reaction, also known as single replacement reaction or exchange reaction, is an archaic concept in chemistry. It describes the stoichiometry of some chemical reactions in which one element or ligand is replaced by atom or group. [1] [2] [3] It can be represented generically as:

  3. Substitution reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substitution_reaction

    A substitution reaction (also known as single displacement reaction or single substitution reaction) is a chemical reaction during which one functional group in a chemical compound is replaced by another functional group. [1] Substitution reactions are of prime importance in organic chemistry.

  4. Chemical reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_reaction

    Nuclear chemistry is a sub-discipline of chemistry that involves the chemical reactions of unstable and radioactive elements where both electronic and nuclear changes can occur. The substance (or substances) initially involved in a chemical reaction are called reactants or reagents .

    Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acid–base extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...

  6. Salt metathesis reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_metathesis_reaction

    A neutralization reaction is a type of double replacement reaction. A neutralization reaction occurs when an acid reacts with an equal amount of a base.This reaction usually produces a salt.

  7. Displacement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement

    Displacement (linguistics), the ability of humans (and possibly some animals) to communicate ideas that are remote in time and/or space; Forced displacement, by persecution or violence; Displacement (psychology), a sub-conscious defense mechanism; Displacement (parapsychology), a statistical or qualitative correspondence between targets and ...

  8. Transition state theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transition_state_theory

    It offers a concrete interpretation of the pre-exponential factor A in the Arrhenius equation; for a unimolecular, single-step process, the rough equivalence A = (k B T/h) exp(1 + ΔS ‡ /R) (or A = (k B T/h) exp(2 + ΔS ‡ /R) for bimolecular gas-phase reactions) holds. For a unimolecular process, a negative value indicates a more ordered ...

  9. Chemical decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_decomposition

    Chemical decomposition, or chemical breakdown, is the process or effect of simplifying a single chemical entity (normal molecule, reaction intermediate, etc.) into two or more fragments. [1] Chemical decomposition is usually regarded and defined as the exact opposite of chemical synthesis. In short, the chemical reaction in which two or more ...
