  2. Diethyl azodicarboxylate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diethyl_azodicarboxylate

    Diethyl azodicarboxylate, conventionally abbreviated as DEAD and sometimes as DEADCAT, [6] [7] is an organic compound with the structural formula CH 3 CH 2 −O−C(=O)−N=N−C(=O)−O−CH 2 CH 3. Its molecular structure consists of a central azo functional group , RN=NR, flanked by two ethyl ester groups.

  3. Self accelerating decomposition temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self_Accelerating...

    The container dissipates heat more slowly in a higher-temperature environment, so at some critical temperature heat is generated by polymerization faster than the container can dissipate it and the reaction self-accelerates. Thus such a mixture has a SADT that depends on container size exactly as in the case of a pure organic peroxide.

  4. Adiabatic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adiabatic_process

    The first limb is an isochoric adiabatic work process increasing the system's internal energy; the second, an isochoric and workless heat transfer returning the system to its original state. Accordingly, Rankine measured quantity of heat in units of work, rather than as a calorimetric quantity. [18]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_chemistry_terms

    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 ...

  6. Chemical decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_decomposition

    The stability of a chemical compound is eventually limited when exposed to extreme environmental conditions such as heat, radiation, humidity, or the acidity of a solvent. Because of this chemical decomposition is often an undesired chemical reaction. However chemical decomposition can be desired, such as in various waste treatment processes.

  7. Thermodynamic free energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_free_energy

    Therefore, the heat of the reaction is a direct measure of the free energy change, =. In solution chemistry, on the other hand, most chemical reactions are kept at constant pressure. Under this condition, the heat of the reaction is equal to the enthalpy change of the system.

  8. Nernst equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nernst_equation

    In electrochemistry, the Nernst equation is a chemical thermodynamical relationship that permits the calculation of the reduction potential of a reaction (half-cell or full cell reaction) from the standard electrode potential, absolute temperature, the number of electrons involved in the redox reaction, and activities (often approximated by concentrations) of the chemical species undergoing ...

  9. Exothermic reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exothermic_reaction

    The measured heat energy released in an exothermic reaction is converted to ΔH⚬ in Joule per mole (formerly cal/mol). The standard enthalpy change Δ H ⚬ is essentially the enthalpy change when the stoichiometric coefficients in the reaction are considered as the amounts of reactants and products (in mole); usually, the initial and final ...
