  2. Solution (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solution_(chemistry)

    A superscript attached to the ∞ symbol for a property of a solution denotes the property in the limit of infinite dilution." [1] One important parameter of a solution is the concentration, which is a measure of the amount of solute in a given amount of solution or solvent. The term "aqueous solution" is used when one of the solvents is water. [2]

  3. Equivalent concentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_concentration

    If the concentration of a sulfuric acid solution is c(H 2 SO 4) = 1 mol/L, then its normality is 2 N. It can also be called a "2 normal" solution. It can also be called a "2 normal" solution. Similarly, for a solution with c (H 3 PO 4 ) = 1 mol/L, the normality is 3 N because phosphoric acid contains 3 acidic H atoms.

  4. Concentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentration

    In chemistry, concentration is the abundance of a constituent divided by the total volume of a mixture. Several types of mathematical description can be distinguished: mass concentration , molar concentration , number concentration , and volume concentration . [ 1 ]

  5. Aqueous solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aqueous_solution

    [1] [2] As water is an excellent solvent and is also naturally abundant, it is a ubiquitous solvent in chemistry. Since water is frequently used as the solvent in experiments, the word solution refers to an aqueous solution, unless the solvent is specified. [3] [4] A non-aqueous solution is a solution in which the solvent is a liquid, but is ...

  6. Chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemistry

    Chemistry is the scientific study of the properties and behavior of matter. [1] It is a physical science within the natural sciences that studies the chemical elements that make up matter and compounds made of atoms, molecules and ions: their composition, structure, properties, behavior and the changes they undergo during reactions with other substances.

  7. Rate equation - Wikipedia

    where: k 1 is the rate coefficient for the reaction that consumes A and B; k −1 is the rate coefficient for the backwards reaction, which consumes P and Q and produces A and B. The constants k 1 and k −1 are related to the equilibrium coefficient for the reaction (K) by the following relationship (set v=0 in balance):

  8. Glossary of chemistry terms - Wikipedia

    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 ...

  9. Thermodynamic activity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_activity

    The relative activity of a species i, denoted a i, is defined [4] [5] as: = where μ i is the (molar) chemical potential of the species i under the conditions of interest, μ o i is the (molar) chemical potential of that species under some defined set of standard conditions, R is the gas constant, T is the thermodynamic temperature and e is the exponential constant.
