Chemical density

The molecular interpretation of major topics in catalytic kinetics will be highlighted based on insights on the properties of transition-state intermediates as deduced from computational chemical density functional theory (DFT) calculations. 

When a molecule accepts electrons, the electrons tend to go to places where/1 (r) is large because it is at these locations that the molecule is most able to stabilize additional electrons. Therefore a molecule is susceptible to nucleophilic attack at sites where/ "(r) is large. Similarly, a molecule is susceptible to electrophilic attack at sites where f (r) is large, because these are the regions where electron removal destabilizes the molecule the least. In chemical density functional theory (DFT), the Fukui functions are the key regioselectivity indicators for electron-transfer controlled reactions.

The technique of density scalable atomic spheres provides an inexpensive approximation for MIDCO s of large molecules, such as those studied in typical drug design and molecular engineering problems, if direct quantum chemical density calculations are not feasible. Furthermore, the density scalable radii also serve as natural starting points for the construction of the families of spheres required for the FSGH technique described above.

The coupling between the hydrological forces and chemical processes —H->C—is responsible for transport of solutes, and this coupling is also to some extent reflected in the water-flow-rate dependence of some mineral dissolution reactions. The reverse coupling between chemical forces and hydrological processes—C- H—is seen in such phenomena as chemical density stratification in lakes, evaporative mixing caused by solute concentration increase in a surface water layer, and chemical density-driven water currents.

See for example Oxtoby, D. W. Nucleation of first-order phase transitions, Acc. Chem. Res. 1998, 31, 91-97, and references therein. The classical nucleation theory (CNT) is challenged by extended theories, one of which was unfortunately called density functional theory because free energy is a functional of the average density profile of the nucleating site, generating some confusion, at least for theoretical chemists, with quantum chemical density functional theory.

The actual chemical density was determined by using this procedure with increasingly finer particle sizes of a sample. The apparent density was plotted versus radius and extrapolated to zero to obtain a value for density free of the error associated with internal bubbles or voids.
