Chemical property requirements

It is fortunate that in many cases we are able to show that there are stable substances (radicals, ions, etc.) of the same type as the hypothetical intermediate and that these more stable or more accessible substances actually have the chemical properties required of the hypothetical ones. Observable radicals and ions have a great variety of degrees of stability, depending on their structures. The extrapolation to the properties of the hypothetical intermediate is therefore a continuous one. 

Most metals that we use in everyday life are actually alloys. An alloy is a solid solution of one metal (or non-metal) in another metal. For example, steel is an alloy of iron. Steel has many uses, from construction to the automobile industry. If the iron were not alloyed with other elements, it would not have the physical and chemical properties required, such as hardness and corrosion resistance, v J... 

Several other elements seemed out of order. For example, their atomic masses placed iodine (1) before tellurium (Te), but their chemical properties required the opposite order. Mendeleyev concluded that the atomic masses must have been determined incorrectly and put these two elements in positions reflecting their properties. We now know that the periodic properties of the elements are based on their atomic numbers, not their atomic masses, which explains Mendeleyev s difficulty with the placement of certain elements. 

Despite manifold variations of the reaction conditions we could not achieve selective monofunctionalization of Si4Phg by use of TfOH. In order to increase solubility and reactivity of the four-membered ring, we synthesized the mixed phenyl and p-tolyl substituted cyclotetrasilane (p-TolSiPh)4. Due to this modification of the educt, which retains all the chemical properties required for the reactions... 

Single atom chemistry is of particular importance if only single atoms are available for chemical studies, as in the case of the heaviest elements. The short-lived isotopes of these elements can only be produced at a rate of one atom at a time, and the investigation of their chemical properties requires special considerations. 

Na+(am) + e (am) + NH3(1) = NaNH2(s) + -H2 K = 3 x 109 The physical and chemical properties required of the solvent to make possible the formation of such metal solutions are not fully understood. The dielectric constant of the solvent is important in the same way as in the solution of an ionic solid, namely, to diminish the forces of attraction between the oppositely charged particles—in this case, M + ions and electrons. Furthermore, if the solvent molecules immediately surrounding these particles interact strongly with them, the energy of the system is further lowered. While the detailed nature of the interaction of the electrons with the surrounding solvent molecules is still debatable, it is fairly clear that the metal ions are solvated in the same way as they would be in a solution of a metal salt in the same solvent (see discussion below). 

The relationship between nucleotide frequencies and protein secondary structures is associated not only with the physico-chemical properties of these structures, but also with the organisation of the genetic code. In fact, this organisation seems to have evolved so as to preserve the secondary structures of proteins by preventing deleterious amino acid substitutions that could modify the physico-chemical properties required for an optimal structure Chiusano et al., 2000). 

The nature of the surface corrosion product changes, so the chemical properties required for effective inhibitor incorporation change.
