  2. 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.

  3. Solvent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent

    A solvent dissolves a solute, resulting in a solution Ethyl acetate, a nail polish solvent. [1] A solvent (from the Latin solvō, "loosen, untie, solve") is a substance that dissolves a solute, resulting in a solution. A solvent is usually a liquid but can also be a solid, a gas, or a supercritical fluid.

  4. Solution (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    Making a saline water solution by dissolving table salt in water.The salt is the solute and the water the solvent. In chemistry, a solution is defined by IUPAC as "A liquid or solid phase containing more than one substance, when for convenience one (or more) substance, which is called the solvent, is treated differently from the other substances, which are called solutes.

  5. List of experiments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_experiments

    Ørsted experiment (1820): Hans Christian Ørsted demonstrates the connection of electricity and magnetism by experiments involving a compass and electric circuits. Discovery of electromagnetic induction (1831): Michael Faraday discovers magnetic induction in an experiment with a closed ring of soft iron, with two windings of wire.

  6. Magnesium acetate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnesium_acetate

    One example of this is when magnesium acetate and magnesium nitrate were both used to perform molecular dynamics simulations and surface tension measurements. In the experiment the authors found that the acetate had a stronger affinity for the surface compared to the nitrate ion and that the Mg 2+ strongly repelled away from the air/liquid ...

  7. Solvated electron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvated_electron

    An electron's being solvated in a solution means it is bound by the solution. [2] The notation for a solvated electron in formulas of chemical reactions is "e − ". Often, discussions of solvated electrons focus on their solutions in ammonia, which are stable for days, but solvated electrons also occur in water and many other solvents – in ...

  8. Ammonia solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia_solution

    Ammonia solution, also known as ammonia water, ammonium hydroxide, ammoniacal liquor, ammonia liquor, aqua ammonia, aqueous ammonia, or (inaccurately) ammonia, is a solution of ammonia in water. It can be denoted by the symbols NH 3 (aq).

  9. Blue bottle experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_bottle_experiment

    The vanishing valentine experiment is another chemical reaction related to the blue bottle experiment. This reaction occurs when water, glucose, sodium hydroxide, and resazurin is mixed in a flask. When the solution is shaken, it turns from light blue to a reddish color. The solution turns back to a light blue after being left to stand for a while.
