In the first the alkyl group attached to the hydroxyl group is named and the separate word alcohol is added. In the second system the higher alcohols are considered as derivatives of the first member of the series, which is called carbinol. The third method is the modified Geneva system in which (1) the longest carbon chain containing the hydroxyl group determines the surname, (2) the ending e of the corresponding saturated hydrocarbon is replaced by ol, (3) the carbon chain is numbered from the end that gives the hydroxyl group the smaller number, and (4) the side chains are named and their positions indicated by the proper number. Alcohols in general are divided into three classes. In primary alcohols the hydroxyl group is united to a primary carbon atom, that is, a carbon atom united directly to only one other carbon atom. Secondary alcohols have the hydroxyl group united to a secondary carbon atom, that is, one united to two other carbon atoms. Tertiary alcohols have the hydroxyl group united to a tertiary carbon atom, that is, one united to three other carbon atoms. 101 CHEMICAL ENGINEERING (continued) Common Names and Molecular Formulas of Some Industrial (Inorganic and Organic) Chemicals Molecular Common Name Chemical Name Formula Muriatic acid Hydrochloric acid HCl Cumene Isopropyl benzene C6H5CH(CH3)2 Styrene Vinyl benzene C6H5CH = CH2 — Hypochlorite ion OCl–1 –1 — Chlorite ion ClO2 –1 — Chlorate ion ClO3 –1 — Perchlorate ion ClO4 Gypsum Calcium sulfate CaSO4 Limestone Calcium carbonate CaCO3 Dolomite Magnesium carbonate MgCO3 Bauxite Aluminum oxide Al2O3 Anatase Titanium dioxide TiO2 Rutile Titanium dioxide TiO2 — Vinyl chloride CH2=CHCl — Ethylene oxide C2H4O Pyrite Ferrous sulfide FeS Epsom salt Magnesium sulfate MgSO4 Hydroquinone p-Dihydroxy benzene C6H4(OH)2 Soda ash Sodium carbonate Na2CO3 Salt Sodium chloride NaCl Potash Potassium carbonate K2CO3 Baking soda Sodium bicarbonate NaHCO3 Lye Sodium hydroxide NaOH Caustic soda Sodium hydroxide NaOH — Vinyl alcohol CH2=CHOH Carbolic acid Phenol C6H5OH Aniline Aminobenzene C6H5NH2 — Urea (NH2)2CO Toluene Methyl benzene C6H5CH3 Xylene Dimethyl benzene C6H4(CH3)2 — Silane SiH4 — Ozone O3 Neopentane 2,2-Dimethylpropane CH3C(CH3)2CH3 Magnetite Ferrous/ferric oxide Fe3O4 Quicksilver Mercury Hg 2 Heavy water Deuterium oxide (H )2O — Borane BH3 Eyewash Boric acid (solution) H3BO3 2 — Deuterium H — Tritium H3 Laughing gas Nitrous oxide N2O — Phosgene COCl2 Wolfram Tungsten W –1 — Permanganate ion MnO4 –2 — Dichromate ion Cr2O7 +1 — Hydronium ion H3O Brine Sodium chloride NaCl (solution) Battery acid Sulfuric acid H2SO4 102 CHEMICAL ENGINEERING (continued) CHEMICAL THERMODYNAMICS Often at system pressures close to atmospheric: L sat Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium fi ≅ Pi ˆ For a multi-component mixture at equilibrium The fugacity coefficient Φi for component i in the vapor is ˆf V = ˆf L , where calculated from an equation of state (e.g., Virial). i i Sometimes it is approximated by a pure component value ˆ V fi = fugacity of component i in the vapor phase, and from a correlation.

  • Laboratory 1: Chemical Equilibrium 1
    1 Laboratory 1: Chemical Equilibrium 1 Reading: Olmstead and Williams, Chemistry , Chapter 14 (all sections) Purpose: The shift in equilibrium position of a chemical reaction with applied stress is determined. Introduction Chemical Equilibrium No chemical reaction goes to completion. When a reaction stops, some amount of reactants remain. For example, although we write → ← 2 CO 2 (g) 2 CO (g) + O 2 (g) (1) as though it goes entirely to products, at 2000K only 2% of the CO 2 decomposes. A chemical reaction reaches equilibrium when the concentrations of the reactants and products no longer change with time. The position of equilibrium describes the relative amounts of reactants and products that remain at the end of a chemical reaction. The position of equilibrium for reaction (1) is said to lie with the reactants, or to the left, because at equilibrium very little of the carbon dioxide has reacted. On the other hand, in the reaction → ← H2 (g) + ½ O2 (g) H2O (g) (2) the equilibrium position lies very far to the right since only very small amounts of H 2 and O 2 remain after the reaction reaches equilibrium. Since chemists often wish to maximize the yield of a reaction, it is vital to determine how to control the position of the equilibrium. The equilibrium position of a reaction may shift if an external stress is applied. The stress may be in the form of a change in temperature, pressure, or the concentration of one of the reactants or products. For example, consider a flask with an equilibrium mixture of CO 2, CO, and O 2, as in reaction (1).

Alphonso X, the Wise of Spain (1223-1284) "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler." Albert Einstein Both the Arrhenius and the Eyring equation describe the temperature dependence of reaction rate. Strictly speaking, the Arrhenius equation can be applied only to the kinetics of gas reactions. The Eyring equation is also used in the study of solution reactions and mixed phase reactions - all places where the simple collision model is not very helpful. The Arrhenius equation is founded on the empirical observation that rates of reactions increase with temperature. The Eyring equation is a theoretical construct, based on transition state model. The bimolecular reaction is considered by 'transition state theory'. According to the transition state model, the reactants are getting over into an unsteady intermediate state on the reaction pathway.

When we say that acetic acid is a weak acid, we can take either of two points of view. Usually we say that acetic acid is a weak acid because it doesn’t ionize very much when dissolved in water. We say that not very many acetic acid molecules dissociate. However, we can describe this situation from another point of view. We could say that the reason acetic acid doesn’t dissociate much when we dissolve it in water is because the acetate ion (the conjugate base of acetic acid) is extremely effective at holding onto protons and specifically is better at holding onto protons than water is in attracting them. + – HC2H3O2 + H2O H3O + C2H3O2 Now what would happen if we had a source of free acetate ions (for example, sodium acetate) and placed them into water? Since acetate ion is better at attracting protons than is water, the acetate ions would pull protons out of water molecules, leaving hydroxide ions. That is, – – C2H3O2 + H2O HC2H3O2 + OH Since an increase in hydroxide ion concentration would take place in the solution, the solution would be basic. Because acetic acid is a weak acid, the acetate ion is a base in aqueous solution. – – 3.

IKE1 and S. C. EZIKE2 1,2Department of Physics, Modibbo Adama University of Technology, P. M. B. 2076, Yola, Adamawa State, Nigeria. Corresponding Author‟s E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Information concerning fluid’s physico-chemical behaviors is of utmost importance in the design, running and optimization of industrial processes, in this regard, the idea of fluid viscosity quickly comes to mind. Models have been proposed in literatures to describe the viscosity of liquids and fluids in general. The Arrhenius type equations have been proposed for pure solvents; correlating the pre-exponential factor A and activation energy Ea. In this paper, we aim at extending these Arrhenius parameters to simple organic liquids such as water, ethanol and Diethyl ether. Hence, statistical method and analysis are applied using viscosity data set from the literature of some organic liquids. The Arrhenius type equation simplifies the estimation of viscous properties and the calculations thereafter. Keywords: Viscosity, organic liquids, Arrhenius parameters, correlation, statistics. 1. INTRODUCTION All fluids are compressible and when flowing are capable of sustaining shearing stress on account of friction between the adjacent layers. Viscosity (η) is the inherent property of all fluids and may be referred to as the internal friction offered by a fluid to the flow. For water in a beaker, when stirred and left to itself, the motion subsides after sometime, which can happen only in the presence of resisting force acting on the fluid.

In a dilute solution the concentration of water is to all intents and purposes constant. So the equation is simplified to: where Ka is the acid dissociation constant for the weak acid + + Also, H3O is often written simply as H and the equation for Ka is usually written as: Values for Ka are extremely small and, therefore, pKa values are given (similar to the reason pH is used rather than [H+].

  • Ideal Gasses Is Known As the Ideal Gas Law
    ESCI 341 – Atmospheric Thermodynamics Lesson 4 –Ideal Gases References: An Introduction to Atmospheric Thermodynamics, Tsonis Introduction to Theoretical Meteorology, Hess Physical Chemistry (4th edition), Levine Thermodynamics and an Introduction to Thermostatistics, Callen IDEAL GASES An ideal gas is a gas with the following properties: There are no intermolecular forces, except during collisions. All collisions are elastic. The individual gas molecules have no volume (they behave like point masses). The equation of state for ideal gasses is known as the ideal gas law. The ideal gas law was discovered empirically, but can also be derived theoretically. The form we are most familiar with, pV nRT . Ideal Gas Law (1) R has a value of 8.3145 J-mol1-K1, and n is the number of moles (not molecules). A true ideal gas would be monatomic, meaning each molecule is comprised of a single atom. Real gasses in the atmosphere, such as O2 and N2, are diatomic, and some gasses such as CO2 and O3 are triatomic. Real atmospheric gasses have rotational and vibrational kinetic energy, in addition to translational kinetic energy. Even though the gasses that make up the atmosphere aren’t monatomic, they still closely obey the ideal gas law at the pressures and temperatures encountered in the atmosphere, so we can still use the ideal gas law. FORM OF IDEAL GAS LAW MOST USED BY METEOROLOGISTS In meteorology we use a modified form of the ideal gas law. We first divide (1) by volume to get n p RT . V we then multiply the RHS top and bottom by the molecular weight of the gas, M, to get Mn R p T .

    Neighbor List Collision-Driven Molecular Dynamics Simulation for Nonspherical Hard Particles. I. Algorithmic Details Aleksandar Donev,1, 2 Salvatore Torquato,1, 2, 3, ∗ and Frank H. Stillinger3 1Program in Applied and Computational Mathematics, Princeton University, Princeton NJ 08544 2Materials Institute, Princeton University, Princeton NJ 08544 3Department of Chemistry, Princeton University, Princeton NJ 08544 Abstract In this first part of a series of two papers, we present in considerable detail a collision-driven molecular dynamics algorithm for a system of nonspherical particles, within a parallelepiped sim- ulation domain, under both periodic or hard-wall boundary conditions. The algorithm extends previous event-driven molecular dynamics algorithms for spheres, and is most efficient when ap- plied to systems of particles with relatively small aspect ratios and with small variations in size. We present a novel partial-update near-neighbor list (NNL) algorithm that is superior to previ- ous algorithms at high densities, without compromising the correctness of the algorithm. This efficiency of the algorithm is further increased for systems of very aspherical particles by using bounding sphere complexes (BSC). These techniques will be useful in any particle-based simula- tion, including Monte Carlo and time-driven molecular dynamics. Additionally, we allow for a nonvanishing rate of deformation of the boundary, which can be used to model macroscopic strain and also alleviate boundary effects for small systems. In the second part of this series of papers we specialize the algorithm to systems of ellipses and ellipsoids and present performance results for our implementation, demonstrating the practical utility of the algorithm. ∗ Electronic address: [email protected] 1 I.

  • Equipartition of Energy
    Equipartition of Energy The number of degrees of freedom can be defined as the minimum number of independent coordinates, which can specify the configuration of the system completely. (A degree of freedom of a system is a formal description of a parameter that contributes to the state of a physical system.) The position of a rigid body in space is defined by three components of translation and three components of rotation, which means that it has six degrees of freedom. The degree of freedom of a system can be viewed as the minimum number of coordinates required to specify a configuration. Applying this definition, we have: • For a single particle in a plane two coordinates define its location so it has two degrees of freedom; • A single particle in space requires three coordinates so it has three degrees of freedom; • Two particles in space have a combined six degrees of freedom; • If two particles in space are constrained to maintain a constant distance from each other, such as in the case of a diatomic molecule, then the six coordinates must satisfy a single constraint equation defined by the distance formula. This reduces the degree of freedom of the system to five, because the distance formula can be used to solve for the remaining coordinate once the other five are specified. The equipartition theorem relates the temperature of a system with its average energies. The original idea of equipartition was that, in thermal equilibrium, energy is shared equally among all of its various forms; for example, the average kinetic energy per degree of freedom in the translational motion of a molecule should equal that of its rotational motions.
