  2. Simon–Glatzel equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon–Glatzel_equation

    The Simon–Glatzel equation[ 1] is an empirical correlation describing the pressure dependence of the melting temperature of a solid. The pressure dependence of the melting temperature is small for small pressure changes because the volume change during fusion or melting is rather small. However, at very high pressures higher melting ...

  3. Water softening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_softening

    Water softening is the removal of calcium, magnesium, and certain other metal cations in hard water. The resulting soft water requires less soap for the same cleaning effort, as soap is not wasted bonding with calcium ions. Soft water also extends the lifetime of plumbing by reducing or eliminating scale build-up in pipes and fittings.

  4. Oligonucleotide synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oligonucleotide_synthesis

    Oligonucleotide synthesis. Oligonucleotide synthesis is the chemical synthesis of relatively short fragments of nucleic acids with defined chemical structure (sequence). The technique is extremely useful in current laboratory practice because it provides a rapid and inexpensive access to custom-made oligonucleotides of the desired sequence.

  5. Tammann and Hüttig temperatures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tammann_and_Hüttig...

    Tammann temperature was pioneered by German astronomer, solid-state chemistry, and physics professor Gustav Tammann in the first half of the 20th century. [1]: 152 He had considered a lattice motion very important for the reactivity of matter and quantified his theory by calculating a ratio of the given material temperatures at solid-liquid phases at absolute temperatures.

    1802 K. 1529 °C. 2784 °F. The Gmelin rare earths handbook lists 1522 °C and 1550 °C as two melting points given in the literature, the most recent reference [Handbook on the chemistry and physics of rare earths, vol.12 (1989)] is given with 1529 °C.

  7. Borax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borax

    Borax (also referred to as sodium borate, tincal (/ ˈtɪŋkəl /) and tincar (/ ˈtɪŋkər /)) is a salt (ionic compound), a hydrated or anhydrous borate of sodium, with the chemical formula Na 2 H 20 B 4 O 17 (also written as Na 2 B 4 O 7·10H2O[1][a]). It is a colorless crystalline solid that dissolves in water to make a basic solution.

  8. DNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA

    The stability can be measured in various ways; a common way is the melting temperature (also called T m value), which is the temperature at which 50% of the double-strand molecules are converted to single-strand molecules; melting temperature is dependent on ionic strength and the concentration of DNA.

  9. Thiele tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thiele_tube

    A sealed capillary, open end pointing down, is placed in the fusion tube. The Thiele tube is heated; dissolved gases evolve from the sample first. Once the sample starts to boil, heating is stopped, and the temperature starts to fall. The temperature at which the liquid sample is sucked into the sealed capillary is the boiling point of the sample.
