In organic chemistry, a hydrate is a compound formed by the hydration, i.e. "Addition of water or of the elements of water (i.e. H and OH) to a molecular entity". [5] For example: ethanol , CH 3 −CH 2 −OH , is the product of the hydration reaction of ethene , CH 2 =CH 2 , formed by the addition of H to one C and OH to the other C, and so ...
In chemistry, a hydration reaction is a chemical reaction in which a substance combines with water. In organic chemistry, water is added to an unsaturated substrate, which is usually an alkene or an alkyne. This type of reaction is employed industrially to produce ethanol, isopropanol, and butan-2-ol. [1]
NMR is the most informative technique for determining hydration numbers in solution. 1 H and 17 O NMR signals, even for paramagnetic species, can be interpreted to give information on hydration number.
Hydrate, a substance that contains water; Hydration enthalpy, energy released through hydrating a substance; Hydration reaction, a chemical addition reaction where a hydroxyl group and proton are added to a compound; Hydration shell, a type of solvation shell
If the hydration energy is greater than the lattice energy, then the enthalpy of solution is negative (heat is released), otherwise it is positive (heat is absorbed). [3]The hydration energy should not be confused with solvation energy, which is the change in Gibb's free energy (not enthalpy) as solute in the gaseous state is dissolved. [4]
In inorganic chemistry, mineral hydration is a reaction which adds water to the crystal structure of a mineral, usually creating a new mineral, commonly called a hydrate.. In geological terms, the process of mineral hydration is known as retrograde alteration and is a process occurring in retrograde metamorphism.
MES is used as a buffering agent in biology and biochemistry. It has pK a value of 6.15 at 20 °C. The pH (and pK a at ionic strength I≠0) of the buffer solution changes with concentration and temperature, and this effect may be predicted using online calculators. [2] MES is highly soluble in water. The melting point is approx. 300 °C.
In chemistry, a hemihydrate (or semihydrate) is a hydrate whose solid contains one molecule of water of crystallization per two other molecules, or per two unit cells.This is sometimes characterized as a solid that has one "half molecule" of water per unit cell. [1]
