The quality of the results that can be obtained with point charge or dipole models depends critically on the input solvation shell structure. In view of the computer power available today, taking the most rigorous route... 

From stochastic molecnlar dynamics calcnlations on the same system, in the viscosity regime covered by the experiment, it appears that intra- and intennolecnlar energy flow occur on comparable time scales, which leads to the conclnsion that cyclohexane isomerization in liquid CS2 is an activated process [99]. Classical molecnlar dynamics calcnlations [104] also reprodnce the observed non-monotonic viscosity dependence of ic. Furthennore, they also yield a solvent contribntion to the free energy of activation for tlie isomerization reaction which in liquid CS, increases by abont 0.4 kJ moC when the solvent density is increased from 1.3 to 1.5 g cm T Tims the molecnlar dynamics calcnlations support the conclnsion that the high-pressure limit of this unimolecular reaction is not attained in liquid solntion at ambient pressure. It has to be remembered, though, that the analysis of the measnred isomerization rates depends critically on the estimated valne of... 

Collisional ionization can play an important role in plasmas, flames and atmospheric and interstellar physics and chemistry. Models of these phenomena depend critically on the accurate detennination of absolute cross sections and rate coefficients. The rate coefficient is the quantity closest to what an experiment actually measures and can be regarded as the cross section averaged over the collision velocity distribution. 

The purity of the peptide finally obtained depends critically on the yield of each cycle. It must be extraordinarily good to produce even moderately pure products (K. Ltibke, 1975). If the average yield of amide formadon in the synthesis of an undecapeptide (n = 10) is. for example, 98< to, the product will contain already about 20% of different impurities which may be difficult to remove. 

In the laboratory, it has been found that similar effects can be produced if a voltage is applied between two electrodes immersed in a gas. The nature of the laboratory or instrumental discharge depends critically on the type of gas used, the gas pressure, and the magnitude of the applied voltage. The actual electrical and gas pressure conditions determine whether or not the discharge is called a corona, a plasma, or an arc. 

The various stages of this process depend critically on the type of gas, its pressure, and the configuration of the electrodes. (Their distance apart and their shapes control the size and shape of the applied electric field.) By controlling the various parameters, the discharge can be made to operate as a corona, a plasma, or an arc at atmospheric pressure. All three discharges can be used as ion sources in mass spectrometry. 

The drop in pressure when a stream of gas or liquid flows over a surface can be estimated from the given approximate formula if viscosity effects are ignored. The example calculation reveals that, with the sorts of gas flows common in a concentric-tube nebulizer, the liquid (the sample solution) at the end of the innermost tube is subjected to a partial vacuum of about 0.3 atm. This vacuum causes the liquid to lift out of the capillary, where it meets the flowing gas stream and is broken into an aerosol. For cross-flow nebulizers, the vacuum created depends critically on the alignment of the gas and liquid flows but, as a maximum, it can be estimated from the given formula. 

The resolution achievable by an array assembly depends critically on the number of elements in the array, the separation of one element from another, and the degree of dispersion of the ions in the ion beam. 

This proposal, however, has been criticized on the basis of transition state theory (74). Hydroperoxy radicals produced in reaction 23 or 24 readily participate in chain-terminating reactions (eq. 17) and are only weak hydrogen abstractors. When they succeed in abstracting hydrogen, they generate hydrogen peroxide ... 

Hydrolysis of solutions of Ti(IV) salts leads to precipitation of a hydrated titanium dioxide. The composition and properties of this product depend critically on the precipitation conditions, including the reactant concentration, temperature, pH, and choice of the salt (46—49). At room temperature, a voluminous and gelatinous precipitate forms. This has been referred to as orthotitanic acid [20338-08-3] and has been represented by the nominal formula Ti02 2H20 (Ti(OH). The gelatinous precipitate either redissolves or peptizes to a colloidal suspension ia dilute hydrochloric or nitric acids. If the suspension is boiled, or if precipitation is from hot solutions, a less-hydrated oxide forms. This has been referred to as metatitanic acid [12026-28-7] nominal formula Ti02 H2O (TiO(OH)2). The latter precipitate is more difficult to dissolve ia acid and is only soluble ia concentrated sulfuric acid or hydrofluoric acid. 

Both anatase and mtile are broad band gap semiconductors iu which a fiUed valence band, derived from the O 2p orbitals, is separated from an empty conduction band, derived from the Ti >d orbitals, by a band gap of ca 3 eV. Consequendy the electrical conductivity depends critically on the presence of impurities and defects such as oxygen vacancies (7). For very pure thin films, prepared by vacuum evaporation of titanium metal and then oxidation, conductivities of 10 S/cm have been reported. For both siugle-crystal and ceramic samples, the electrical conductivity depends on both the state of reduction of the and on dopant levels. At 300 K, a maximum conductivity of 1 S/cm has been reported at an oxygen deficiency of... 

The chronoamperometric technique illustrates the principle that analytically useful current responses depend critically on the efficiency of analyte mass transport within the solution. The analyte mass transport in turn depends on the efficiency with which an appHed voltage can maintain the surface concentrations of oxidized and reduced species at values specified by the Nemst equation. It is generally the case in chronoamperometry that the bulk concentration of one of the species is zero whereas the surface concentration of the other species is forced to zero by the appHed potential, but this is not always so. 

The present book brings to the reader a state-of-the-art treatment of high-pressure shock compression of solids in a type of tutorial manner. It has been felt by the shock physics and engineering communities that there is a need for such a book to aid the education and training of undergraduate and graduate students of physics and engineering. We hope that the present book will partially fill that vacuum. We certainly welcome any comment or criticism on the content of this book, in the hope that these will be incorporated into later editions of the book. 

Fig. 28.6. Fatigue data for welded joints in clean air. The class given to a weld depends critically on the weld detail and the loading direction. Classes B and C must be free from cracks and must be ground flush with the surface to remove stress concentrations. These conditions ore rarely met in practice, and most welds used in general construction hove comparatively poor fatigue properties.

The GAL4 recognition module therefore contains only one protein side chain, Lys 18, that provides specific interactions with the DNA. The remaining specific interactions with DNA are from main-chain atoms and depend critically on the correct conformation of the protein. The correct positioning of the C-terminus of the a helix is particularly important for recognition. This is to date the only example of a protein-DNA interaction in which... 

As a consequence of these factors, it is important to realize that success in developing good bonds to a CAA surface depends critically on the type of surface preparation used immediately prior to anodization. When this is taken into account and a FPL or PAA treatment precedes anodization, then the CAA process can yield excellent results. Moreover it has also been shown that the CAA oxide, overall, is less friable, i.e., less susceptible to damage, than PAA, or other thinner oxides [29,84]. 

Note 3. The success of the experiment depends critically on the quality of the chlorohydrin only recrystallized material should be used. 

Attempts have been made to distinguish between these theories on the basis of the AH° and values anticipated for the two theories, but it may be illusory to think of them as independent alternatives. The eavity model has been criticized on the basis that it eannot account for certain observations such as the denaturing effect of urea, but it must be noted that the cavity theory includes not only the cavity term AAy, but also a term (or terms) for the interaction of the solutes and the solvent. A more eogent objeetion might be to the extension of the macroseopic concepts of surface area and tension to the molecular scale. A demonstration of the validity of the cavity concept has been made with silanized glass beads, which aggregate in polar solvents and disperse in nonpolar solvents. 

We can further conclude that the success of the Cl-Singles method often depends critically on the chosen basis set. Diffuse (Rydberg-like) excited states usually require the addition of one or two diffuse functions to a split-valence basis set. 

The properties of these brittle ceramics depend critically on the preparative conditions. Intimate mixtures of the oxides, carbonates or nitrates of the relevant metals in the required proportions are heated at temperatures of 900-I000°C. For YBa2Cu307 j , all compositions in the range 0 < jc < 0.5 superconduct and the highest Tc is found where jc 0. For others, the oxygen content must be stringently controlled. In all cases, the most... 

These can be determined experimentally to very high accuracy from the Stark effect and molecular beam studies. The experimental accuracy is far beyond the capabilities of ab initio studies. At the other extreme, the original route to these quantities was through studies of the dielectric polarization of species in solution, and there is currently interest in collision-induced dipole moments. In either case, the quantities deduced depend critically on the model used to interpret the experiment. 

It is worth emphasising too, that the position of those lines representing equilibria with the dissolved species, M, depend critically on the solubility of the ion, which is a continuous function of pH. For example, iron in moderately alkaline solution is expected to be very passive and so it is in borate solutions (in the absence of aggressive ions). However, the anodic polarization curve still shows a small active loop at low potential. 

Whether this cluster-merging continues on forever depends critically on the ini-... 

An alternative explanation for the photoinduced absorption in the bulk polymer has been discussed by the Cambridge group [28]. It was shown that the amount of stimulated emission depends critically on the degree of photooxidation of the conjugated polymer. Figure 10-5 compares the stimulated emission of pristine PPV (see Fig. 10-5 a) and its heavily photooxidized counterpart (sec Fig. 10-5b). 

The success of the multifunctional initiators in the preparation of block and graft copolymers depends critically on the kinetics and mechanism of radical production. In particular, the initiator efficiency, the susceptibility to and mechanism of transfer to initiator, and the relative stability of the various radical generating functions. Each of these factors has a substantial influence on the nature and homogeneity of the polymer formed. Features of the kinetics of polymerizations initiated by multifunctional initiators have been modeled by O Driscoll and Bevington 64 and Choi and Lei.265... 

Merck precoated silica gel F254 plates, layer thickness 0.25 mm., were used. Developing with 10 1 (vjv) benzene-acetone and visualizing with ultraviolet light, the product appears at Rf 0.58 0.67. Normally the product is found in the lower third of the column, and occasionally some is found in the last fractions of eluent collected during development. However, since the exact position of this material on the column depends critically on the way in which the column is packed, a thorough check of all fractions is advisable.
