  2. Acid dissociation constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_dissociation_constant

    Free energy is made up of an enthalpy term and an entropy term. [11] = The standard enthalpy change can be determined by calorimetry or by using the van 't Hoff equation, though the calorimetric method is preferable. When both the standard enthalpy change and acid dissociation constant have been determined, the standard entropy change is easily ...

  3. PKA (irradiation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PKA_(irradiation)

    In its path, a PKA can produce effects similar to those of heating and rapidly quenching a metal, resulting in Frenkel defects. A thermal spike does not last long enough to permit annealing of the Frenkel defects. [1] [2] A different model called the displacement spike was proposed for fast neutron bombardment of heavy elements.

  4. Negative energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_energy

    The negative-energy particle then crosses the event horizon into the black hole, with the law of conservation of energy requiring that an equal amount of positive energy should escape. In the Penrose process , a body divides in two, with one half gaining negative energy and falling in, while the other half gains an equal amount of positive ...

    A nearly decades-old photo of Ben Affleck "being sick of life" went viral this week. Why does "sad Affleck" resonate with so many people?

  6. Polyelectrolyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyelectrolyte

    Similarly, polyelectrolytes can be divided into "weak" and "strong" types. A "strong" polyelectrolyte dissociates completely in solution for most reasonable pH values. A "weak" polyelectrolyte, by contrast, has a dissociation constant (pKa or pKb) in the range of ~2 to ~10, meaning that it will be partially dissociated at intermediate pH.

  7. Proton affinity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_affinity

    The higher the proton affinity, the stronger the base and the weaker the conjugate acid in the gas phase.The (reportedly) strongest known base is the ortho-diethynylbenzene dianion (E pa = 1843 kJ/mol), [3] followed by the methanide anion (E pa = 1743 kJ/mol) and the hydride ion (E pa = 1675 kJ/mol), [4] making methane the weakest proton acid [5] in the gas phase, followed by dihydrogen.

  8. Protein kinase A - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_kinase_A

    In cell biology, protein kinase A (PKA) is a family of serine-threonine kinase [1] whose activity is dependent on cellular levels of cyclic AMP (cAMP). PKA is also known as cAMP-dependent protein kinase (EC 2.7.11.11). PKA has several functions in the cell, including regulation of glycogen, sugar, and lipid metabolism.

  9. Ionization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionization

    The maximum kinetic energy that the returning electron can have is 3.17 times the ponderomotive potential of the laser. Corkum's model places a cut-off limit on the minimum intensity ( U p {\displaystyle U_{p}} is proportional to intensity) where ionization due to re-scattering can occur.
