Chemical equations visualizing

To visualize this kind of problem, we need a balanced chemical equation ... 

Water can act as either an acid or a base, depending on the circumstances. This ability to act as either an acid or a base is referred to by stating that water is amphoteric. Water serves as a base in (17-3) and as an acid in (17-4). Note that the bare H+ (a proton) becomes the hydronium ion, H30+, which is a hydrated proton (H30+ is H+ + H2O) because the bare proton does not really exist in solution. When we write the equilibrium constant expression for an aqueous equilibrium, we can use either the hydrogen ion, H+, or the hydrated form, H30+. Although the proton is hydrated in aqueous solution (as is the hydroxide), the use of H+ and H30+ is up to the style of the person working the problem and the problem itself. More often than not, leaving out water on both sides of the equation is used to keep the solutions to the problems visually simple. So long as water is in its standard state (liquid), it is not included in the K expression and, therefore, not necessary in the chemical equation. 

The first image (Fig. 16(a)) shows two adsorbed C6H5I molecules on Cu exactly representing the left side of the Ullmann equation. The final image (Fig. 16(e)), illustrating a biphenyl molecule and two iodine atoms on Cu, exactly represents the right side of the equation. Thus, the whole chemical equation can be visualized step by step with individual reactants. 

The final visualization of the reduced B matrix allows finding the basic set of independent chemical equations. Note that C = rank (B) gives the number of component species that may form all the other noncomponent species by a minimum of independent chemical reactions. The procedure can be applied by hand calculations for simple cases, or by using computer algebra tools for a larger number of species. More details can be found in the book of Missen et al. [7], or at www.chemical-stoichiometry.net. 

The chemical equation for the singie-repiacement reaction invoiving copper and siiver nitrate cieariy describes the repiacement of siiver by copper, but the visual evidence of this chemical reaction is a solid precipitate. 

Berzelius s proposal followed the comparatively recent realization that numerical calculations could be applied to chemical equations. The new symbols were simple and stood for definite atomic weights in the case of each element. They could be set in ordinary type, and they permitted the chemist to visualize chemical reactions simply and effectively. 

Neutralization reactions are important in maintaining the necessary balance of chemicals in your body, and they help keep a similar balance in our oceans and lakes. Neutralization reactions are used in industry to make a wide range of products, including pharmaceuticals, food additives, and fertilizers. Let s look at some of the different forms of Arrhenius acid-base reactions, how they can be visualized, and how to describe them with chemical equations. 

The chemical equations that we have been learning to write are symbolic descriptions of chemical reactions. But to interpret these equations, we must think about them from another point of view, in terms of the actual substances and processes they represent. As often happens in chemistry, we can do this at either the microscopic or the macroscopic level. The microscopic interpretation visualizes reactions between individual molecules, and that interpretation is the one we... 

For a second-order heterogeneous reaction between H2 and I2 adsorbed on a surface, one can visualize the activated complex in chemical equation... 

The prediction of drop sizes in liquid-liquid systems is difficult. Most of the studies have used very pure fluids as two of the immiscible liquids, and in industrial practice there almost always are other chemicals that are surface-active to some degree and make the pre-dic tion of absolute drop sizes veiy difficult. In addition, techniques to measure drop sizes in experimental studies have all types of experimental and interpretation variations and difficulties so that many of the equations and correlations in the literature give contradictoiy results under similar conditions. Experimental difficulties include dispersion and coalescence effects, difficulty of measuring ac tual drop size, the effect of visual or photographic studies on where in the tank you can make these obseiwations, and the difficulty of using probes that measure bubble size or bubble area by hght or other sample transmission techniques which are veiy sensitive to the concentration of the dispersed phase and often are used in veiy dilute solutions. 

It was concluded [734] from visual inspection and chemical analysis of partially decomposed dolomite, that reaction was initiated at the outer surfaces of the crystallites and the interface established advanced thereafter into the bulk. The deceleratory a—time curves obeyed the contracting volume equation [eqn. (7), n = 3] and the values of E determined were between 206 and 232 kJ mole-1. These values of E were generally greater than those reported for other studies ( 190 kJ mole-1) which are in the range mentioned [121] for CaC03 dissociation and slightly larger than the enthalpy of that reaction. On exposure of the residue from vacuum decomposition of dolomite to C02, the gas uptake at 1070 K was... 

The problem asks for the amount of energy released in a chemical reaction that forms a specified mass of product. The balanced equation is as much visualization as is needed for this problem. The data provided are A S for the balanced equation and the mass of product formed, 1.00 kg. 

Our analysis of the reaction of nitrogen dioxide molecules is not unique. The same type of path can be visualized for any chemical reaction, as Figure 6-20 shows. The reaction enthalpy for any chemical reaction can be found from the standard enthalpies of formation for all the reactants and products. Multiply each standard enthalpy of formation by the appropriate stoichiometric coefficient, add the values for the products, add the values for the reactants, and subtract the sum for reactants from the sum for products. Equation summarizes this procedure ... 

This is a quantitative problem, so we follow the standard strategy. The problem asks about an actual potential under nonstandard conditions. Before we determine the potential, we must visualize the electrochemical cell and determine the balanced chemical reaction. The half-reactions are given in the problem. To obtain the balanced equation, reverse the direction of the reduction half-reaction with the... 

Each laboratory is designed to help students investigate, visualize and explore a chemical problem, developing an insight and intuition not easily developed from equations alone. 

Note the equation of an extremely stimulated imagination with a dreamlike state. From the facts that he found the daylight to be unpleasantly glaring and the corresponding release of an uninterrupted stream of fantastic pictures, we can safely conclude that Hofmann s LSD visions were produced by a dreamlike shift in the chemical balance of his visual brain. And, indeed, Hofmann himself offered the hypothesis that the stimulating effects on his visual brain were caused by LSD s interference with serotonin, the brain modulator that later physiological studies showed to be radically reduced in REM sleep.
