  2. Ethenone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethenone

    Ethenone is a highly reactive gas (at standard conditions) and has a sharp irritating odour.It is only reasonably stable at low temperatures (−80 °C). It must therefore always be prepared for each use and processed immediately, otherwise a dimerization to diketene occurs or it reacts to polymers that are difficult to handle.

  3. Brownian motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brownian_motion

    The number of atoms contained in this volume is referred to as the Avogadro number, and the determination of this number is tantamount to the knowledge of the mass of an atom, since the latter is obtained by dividing the molar mass of the gas by the Avogadro constant. The characteristic bell-shaped curves of the diffusion of Brownian particles.

  4. Molecular diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_diffusion

    Molecular diffusion, often simply called diffusion, is the thermal motion of all (liquid or gas) particles at temperatures above absolute zero. The rate of this movement is a function of temperature, viscosity of the fluid and the size (mass) of the particles.

  5. Ketene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketene

    Ketenes are unstable and cannot be stored. In the absence of nucleophiles with which to react, ethenone dimerises to give β-lactone, a cyclic ester. If the ketene is disubstituted, the dimerisation product is a substituted cyclobutadione. For monosubstituted ketenes, the dimerisation could afford either the ester or the diketone product.

  6. Mass transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_transfer

    Mass transfer is the net movement of mass from one location (usually meaning stream, phase, fraction, or component) to another. Mass transfer occurs in many processes, such as absorption, evaporation, drying, precipitation, membrane filtration, and distillation. Mass transfer is used by different scientific disciplines for different processes ...

  7. Transport phenomena - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_phenomena

    This analogy is based on experimental data for gases and liquids in both the laminar and turbulent regimes. Although it is based on experimental data, it can be shown to satisfy the exact solution derived from laminar flow over a flat plate. All of this information is used to predict transfer of mass.

  8. Gas kinetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_kinetics

    Gas kinetics is a science in the branch of fluid dynamics, concerned with the study of motion of gases and its effects on physical systems.Based on the principles of fluid mechanics and thermodynamics, gas dynamics arises from the studies of gas flows in transonic and supersonic flights.

  9. Slosh dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slosh_dynamics

    In fluid dynamics, slosh refers to the movement of liquid inside another object (which is, typically, also undergoing motion). Strictly speaking, the liquid must have a free surface to constitute a slosh dynamics problem, where the dynamics of the liquid can interact with the container to alter the system dynamics significantly.
