Molecular interpretation chemical equilibrium

Volume 3 explains the systems of molecular and atomic weight, valences, the atomic theory, the system of classification of the elements, and the laws of chemical equilibrium. Here we find Lespieau s view that the goal of chemistry is the formule developee, not the formule brute, and that the atomic hypothesis gives us a striking interpretation and creates a language that is now adopted by all chemists, even those who reject the hypothesis of an indivisible primordial particle.30... 

Some of the chemical concepts with little or no quantum-mechanical meaning outside the Bohmian formulation but, well explained in terms of the new interpretation, include electronegativity, the valence state, chemical potential, metallization, chemical bonding, isomerism, chemical equilibrium, orbital angular momentum, bond strength, molecular shape, phase transformation, chirality and barriers to rotation. In addition, atomic stability is explained in terms of a simple physical model. The central new concepts in Bohmian mechanics are quantum potential and quantum torque. 

The equilibrium ortho-para conversion studies of Rosenbaum and Hogness originally appeared inconsistent with the work of Bodenstein since the equilibration of the nuclear spins took place much more rapidly than the Bodenstein rates. Sullivan has re-interpreted the conversion data in the light of parallel molecular and free radical mechanisms and shown it to be equivalent to the results of his experiments which were run far from chemical equilibrium. 

Understanding of sediment diagenesis and benthic fluxes has evolved with advances in both experimental methods and modeling. Measurements of chemical concentrations in sediments, their associated pore waters and fluxes at the sediment-water interface have been used to identify the most important reactions. Because transport in pore waters is usually by molecular diffusion, this medium is conducive to interpretation by models of heterogeneous chemical equilibrium and kinetics. Large chemical changes...

In this article we consider problems concerning the interpretation of unsaturated, steady-state NMR spectra of spin systems which are in a state of dynamic equilibrium. Spin exchange processes may occur with frequencies between a few sec-1 and several thousand sec-1 and thus modify the spectral lineshapes. In this case we use the terms dynamic NMR and dynamic spectra. The analysis of dynamic NMR lineshapes constitutes an important, and often unique, source of information about intra- and inter-molecular reaction rates. This is especially true for degenerate reactions where the products are chemically identical with the substrates. For this and similar reasons, dynamic NMR analysis has attracted considerable attention for about twenty years. 

In this chapter we will mostly focus on the application of molecular dynamics simulation technique to understand solvation process in polymers. The organization of this chapter is as follow. In the first few sections the thermodynamics and statistical mechanics of solvation are introduced. In this regards, Flory s theory of polymer solutions has been compared with the classical solution methods for interpretation of experimental data. Very dilute solution of gases in polymers and the methods of calculation of chemical potentials, and hence calculation of Henry s law constants and sorption isotherms of gases in polymers are discussed in Section 11.6.1. The solution of polymers in solvents, solvent effect on equilibrium and dynamics of polymer-size change in solutions, and the solvation structures are described, with the main emphasis on molecular dynamics simulation method to obtain understanding of solvation of nonpolar polymers in nonpolar solvents and that of polar polymers in polar solvents, in Section 11.6.2. Finally, the dynamics of solvation with a short review of the experimental, theoretical, and simulation methods are explained in Section 11.7. 

Basis of mechanistic interpretation A full mechanistic account follows in the next chapter. Here we simply indicate the important features of the currently-accepted interpretation of the above facts. The key feature in these thermokinetic phenomena is that there are both thermal and chemical feedback processes combining to produce the various exotic responses, including the ntc. At the heart of the clockwork is the equilibrium involving the methyl radical CH3 and molecular oxygen [78]... 

Physico-chemical properties constitute the most important class of experimental measurements, also playing a fundamental role as - molecular descriptors both for their availability as well as their interpretability. Examples of physico-chemical measurable quantities are refractive indices, molar refractivities, parachors, densities, solubilities, partition coefficients, dipole moments, chemical shifts, retention times, spectroscopic signals, rate constants, equilibrium constants, vapor pressures, boiling and melting points, acid dissociation constants, etc. [Lyman et al, 1982 Reid et al, 1988 Horvath, 1992 Baum, 1998].
