  2. Fault indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fault_indicator

    A fault indicator is a mechanism that conveys an indication of a fault, or absence of it, in a system. For example, the purpose of the engine-check light commonly found on the dashboard of motor vehicles is to indicate whether or not there is a fault with the engine.

    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 ...

  4. Eriochrome Black T - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eriochrome_Black_T

    When used as an indicator in an EDTA titration, the characteristic blue end-point is reached when sufficient EDTA is added and the metal ions bound to the indicator are chelated by EDTA, leaving the free indicator molecule. Eriochrome Black T has also been used to detect the presence of rare earth metals. [2]

  5. Complexometric indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complexometric_indicator

    A complexometric indicator is an ionochromic dye that undergoes a definite color change in presence of specific metal ions. [1] It forms a weak complex with the ions present in the solution, which has a significantly different color from the form existing outside the complex. Complexometric indicators are also known as pM indicators. [2]

  6. Failure analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure_analysis

    Failure analysis is the process of collecting and analyzing data to determine the cause of a failure, often with the goal of determining corrective actions or liability.. According to Bloch and Geitner, ”machinery failures reveal a reaction chain of cause and effect… usually a deficiency commonly referred to as the symptom…”

    Complexometric indicator, a chemical detector for metal ions in complexometric titrations. Humidity indicator card, a card impregnated with chemicals that change colour when a particular humidity is exceeded. pH indicator, a chemical detector for protons in acid-base titrations. Redox indicator, a chemical detector for redox titrations.

    Schematic illustration of the two strike-slip fault types. The view is of the Earth's surface from above. In geology, the terms sinistral and dextral refer to the horizontal component of the movement of blocks on either side of a fault or the sense of movement within a shear zone. These are terms of relative direction, as the movement of the ...

    A roll of universal indicator pape Colors of universal indicator. A universal indicator is a pH indicator made of a solution of several compounds that exhibit various smooth colour changes over a wide range pH values to indicate the acidity or alkalinity of solutions. A universal indicator can be in paper form or present in a form of a solution ...
