  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 ...

  5. Rate-determining step - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate-determining_step

    The statement that the first step is the slow step actually means that the first step in the reverse direction is slower than the second step in the forward direction, so that almost all NO 3 is consumed by reaction with CO and not with NO. That is, r −1 ≪ r 2, so that r 1 − r 2 ≈ 0.

  6. Nitrification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrification

    The second step of nitrification is the oxidation of nitrite into nitrate. This process is sometimes known as nitratation. Nitrite oxidation is conducted by nitrite-oxidizing bacteria ( NOB ) from the taxa Nitrospirota , [ 16 ] Nitrospinota , [ 17 ] Pseudomonadota [ 18 ] and Chloroflexota . [ 19 ]

  7. Irrigation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irrigation

    Water moves by following gravity or the slope of the land. Surface irrigation can be subdivided into furrow, border strip or basin irrigation. It is often called flood irrigation when the irrigation results in flooding or near flooding of the cultivated land. Historically, surface irrigation is the most common method of irrigating agricultural ...

    Rather they refer to what percentage of the total weight is milk fat. For example, one cup of milk weighs about 225 grams. Of that weight, 2% milk holds 5 grams of fat and whole milk contains 8 grams.

  9. Ultrapure water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrapure_water

    Ultrapure water (UPW), high-purity water or highly purified water (HPW) is water that has been purified to uncommonly stringent specifications. Ultrapure water is a term commonly used in manufacturing to emphasize the fact that the water is treated to the highest levels of purity for all contaminant types, including organic and inorganic compounds, dissolved and particulate matter, and ...
