  2. Delta one - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_one

    A delta one product is a derivative with a linear, symmetric payoff profile. That is, a derivative that is not an option or a product with embedded options. Examples of delta one products are Exchange-traded funds, equity swaps, custom baskets, linear certificates, futures, forwards, exchange-traded notes, trackers, and Forward rate agreements ...

  3. Standard enthalpy of reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_enthalpy_of_reaction

    Standard enthalpy of combustion is the enthalpy change when one mole of an organic compound reacts with molecular oxygen (O 2) to form carbon dioxide and liquid water. For example, the standard enthalpy of combustion of ethane gas refers to the reaction C 2 H 6 (g) + (7/2) O 2 (g) → 2 CO 2 (g) + 3 H 2 O (l).

  4. Enthalpy–entropy compensation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enthalpy–entropy...

    In thermodynamics, enthalpy–entropy compensation is a specific example of the compensation effect. The compensation effect refers to the behavior of a series of closely related chemical reactions (e.g., reactants in different solvents or reactants differing only in a single substituent), which exhibit a linear relationship between one of the following kinetic or thermodynamic parameters for ...

  5. Hammond's postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammond's_postulate

    While the rate of a reaction depends just on the activation energy (often represented in organic chemistry as ΔG ‡ “delta G double dagger”), the final ratios of products in chemical equilibrium depends only on the standard free-energy change ΔG (“delta G”). The ratio of the final products at equilibrium corresponds directly with the ...

  6. Standard enthalpy of formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_enthalpy_of_formation

    One exception is phosphorus, for which the most stable form at 1 bar is black phosphorus, but white phosphorus is chosen as the standard reference state for zero enthalpy of formation. [2] For example, the standard enthalpy of formation of carbon dioxide is the enthalpy of the following reaction under the above conditions:

  7. Chemical reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_reaction

    A chemical reaction is a process that leads to the chemical transformation of one set of chemical substances to another. [1] When chemical reactions occur, the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is accompanied by an energy change as new products are generated.

  8. Thermochemical equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermochemical_equation

    If one agent of an equation is changed through multiplication, then all agents must be proportionally changed, including . The multiplicative property of thermochemical equations is mainly due to the first law of thermodynamics , which says that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; this concept is commonly known as the conservation of ...

  9. Glossary of chemistry terms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_chemistry_terms

    In organic chemistry, a type of chemical reaction in which two or more molecules combine to make a larger one. adduct A distinct chemical species that is the sole product of an addition reaction between two other distinct reactant species, in which all of the atoms comprising the reactants are retained in the single product. Changes in ...
