  2. Yield (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_(chemistry)

    The ratio of the theoretical yield and the actual yield results in a percent yield. [8] When more than one reactant participates in a reaction, the yield is usually calculated based on the amount of the limiting reactant, whose amount is less than stoichiometrically equivalent (or just equivalent) to the amounts of all other reactants present ...

  3. Hydration reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydration_reaction

    In the first step, the alkene acts as a nucleophile and attacks the proton, following Markovnikov's rule. In the second step an H 2 O molecule bonds to the other, more highly substituted carbon. The oxygen atom at this point has three bonds and carries a positive charge (i.e., the molecule is an oxonium ).

  4. Aquifer properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquifer_properties

    Specific yield of soils differ from each other in the sense that some soil types have strong molecular attraction with the water held in their pores while others have less. It is found experimentally that cohesionless soils have high specific yield than cohesive soils because the former has significantly less molecular attraction then the latter.

  5. Stoichiometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoichiometry

    A stoichiometric diagram of the combustion reaction of methane. Stoichiometry (/ ˌ s t ɔɪ k i ˈ ɒ m ɪ t r i / ⓘ) is the relationships between the masses of reactants and products before, during, and following chemical reactions.

  6. Green chemistry metrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_chemistry_metrics

    Percentage yield is calculated by dividing the amount of the obtained desired product by the theoretical yield. [6] In a chemical process, the reaction is usually reversible, thus reactants are not completely converted into products; some reactants are also lost by undesired side reaction.

    This is an accepted version of this page This is the latest accepted revision, reviewed on 19 February 2025. Water located beneath the ground surface An illustration showing groundwater in aquifers (in blue) (1, 5 and 6) below the water table (4), and three different wells (7, 8 and 9) dug to reach it. Groundwater is the water present beneath Earth's surface in rock and soil pore spaces and in ...

    The median price for an existing home in the U.S. was $379,100 as of January 2024. A 20 percent down payment on a home at this price would come to $75,820. Regardless of price or loan type, though ...

  9. Vadose zone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vadose_zone

    Water in the vadose zone has a pressure head less than atmospheric pressure, and is retained by a combination of adhesion (funiculary groundwater), and capillary action (capillary groundwater). If the vadose zone envelops soil, the water contained therein is termed soil moisture. In fine grained soils, capillary action can cause the pores of ...
