  2. Cyanogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanogen

    Cyanogen is the chemical compound with the formula (C N) 2. The simplest stable carbon nitride, it is a colorless and highly toxic gas with a pungent odor. The molecule is a pseudohalogen. Cyanogen molecules consist of two CN groups ‒ analogous to diatomic halogen molecules, such as Cl 2, but far less oxidizing.

  3. Szyszkowski equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Szyszkowski_equation

    γ is surface tension of the mixture; γ 0 is surface tension of pure water; R is ideal gas constant 8.31 J/(mol*K) T is temperature in K; ω is cross-sectional area of the surfactant molecules at the surface; The surface tension of pure water is dependent on temperature. At room temperature (298 K), it is equal to 71.97 mN/m [4]

  4. Compressibility factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility_factor

    Compressibility factor values are usually obtained by calculation from equations of state (EOS), such as the virial equation which take compound-specific empirical constants as input. For a gas that is a mixture of two or more pure gases (air or natural gas, for example), the gas composition must be known before compressibility can be calculated.

  5. Activity coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activity_coefficient

    In thermodynamics, an activity coefficient is a factor used to account for deviation of a mixture of chemical substances from ideal behaviour. [1] In an ideal mixture, the microscopic interactions between each pair of chemical species are the same (or macroscopically equivalent, the enthalpy change of solution and volume variation in mixing is zero) and, as a result, properties of the mixtures ...

  6. Dalton's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalton's_law

    Dalton's law (also called Dalton's law of partial pressures) states that in a mixture of non-reacting gases, the total pressure exerted is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases. [1] This empirical law was observed by John Dalton in 1801 and published in 1802. [2] Dalton's law is related to the ideal gas laws.

    Glucose (C 6 H 12 O 6), ribose (C 5 H 10 O 5), Acetic acid (C 2 H 4 O 2), and formaldehyde (CH 2 O) all have different molecular formulas but the same empirical formula: CH 2 O.This is the actual molecular formula for formaldehyde, but acetic acid has double the number of atoms, ribose has five times the number of atoms, and glucose has six times the number of atoms.

    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 ...

  9. Gas blending - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_blending

    A breathing gas is a mixture of gaseous chemical elements and compounds used for respiration. The essential component for any breathing gas is a partial pressure of oxygen of between roughly 0.16 and 1.60 bar at the ambient pressure. The oxygen is usually the only metabolically active component unless the gas is an anaesthetic mixture.
