  2. Aluminium chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_chloride

    Anhydrous aluminium chloride is hygroscopic, having a very pronounced affinity for water. It fumes in moist air and hisses when mixed with liquid water as the Cl − ligands are displaced with H 2 O molecules to form the hexahydrate [Al(H 2 O) 6]Cl 3. The anhydrous phase cannot be regained on heating the hexahydrate.

  3. Alkenylsuccinic anhydrides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkenylsuccinic_anhydrides

    Both compound classes are hydrophobic and therefore virtually insoluble in water - the solubility of the commonly used iso-octadecenylsuccinic anhydride (C 18-ASA) is only 5.33x10 −5 mgl −1. ASA are less hydrophobic and thus less water repellent than AKD because of their shorter chain length.

  4. Anhydrous - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anhydrous

    Anhydrous solvents are commercially available from chemical suppliers, and are packaged in sealed containers to maintain dryness. [4] Typically anhydrous solvents will contain approximately 10 ppm of water and will increase in wetness if they are not properly stored. Organic solutions can be dried using a range of drying agents.

  5. Hydrochloric acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrochloric_acid

    The most common regeneration process is the pyrohydrolysis process, applying the following formula: [25] 4 FeCl 2 + 4 H 2 O + O 2 → 8 HCl + 2 Fe 2 O 3. By recuperation of the spent acid, a closed acid loop is established. [7] The iron(III) oxide by-product of the regeneration process is valuable, used in a variety of secondary industries. [25]

  6. Aluminium sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_sulfate

    This process is called coagulation or flocculation. Research suggests that in Australia, aluminium sulfate used in this way in drinking water treatment is the primary source of hydrogen sulfide gas in sanitary sewer systems. [8] An improper and excess application incident in 1988 polluted the water supply of Camelford in Cornwall.

  7. Hydrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrolysis

    Hydrolysis (/ h aɪ ˈ d r ɒ l ɪ s ɪ s /; from Ancient Greek hydro- 'water' and lysis 'to unbind') is any chemical reaction in which a molecule of water breaks one or more chemical bonds. The term is used broadly for substitution, elimination, and solvation reactions in which water is the nucleophile. [1]

  8. Amphoterism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amphoterism

    The water molecule is amphoteric in aqueous solution. It can either gain a proton to form a hydronium ion H 3 O +, or else lose a proton to form a hydroxide ion OH −. [7] Another possibility is the molecular autoionization reaction between two water molecules, in which one water molecule acts as an acid and another as a base. H 2 O + H 2 O ...

  9. Metal ions in aqueous solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_ions_in_aqueous_solution

    A metal ion in aqueous solution or aqua ion is a cation, dissolved in water, of chemical formula [M(H 2 O) n] z+.The solvation number, n, determined by a variety of experimental methods is 4 for Li + and Be 2+ and 6 for most elements in periods 3 and 4 of the periodic table.
