In this chapter, we present new principles for elucidating the real composition, stmcture and properties of solid inorganic substances with the use of dissolution properties. These principles made it possible to develop original methods for examining the features of solids such methods are unique and have a great potential. Prior to considering the indicated principles and methods, it seems reasonable to highlight some important physicochemical aspects of solid phase dissolution. 

As indicated in Chapter 6, and discussed in detail by Anderson et al. (1978), optimum parameters, based on the maximum-likelihood principle, are those which minimize the objective function... 

This same principle, as indicated earlier, is used in atomic absorption spectroscopy and UV absorption. 

Carbon NMR is also applied using the same principles as those for hydrogen to measure the cetane indices for diesel fuels. 

In principle, the pictures with the indications to be valuated where stored. The regions of interest where cut out and rearranged in a new picture for further processing as shown for example in Fig. 3. You see a part of the reference block No. 1 with indications from 3 wetting procedures (horizontal) of 6 detection media (vertical). 

Figure A2.3.6 illustrates the corresponding states principle for the reduced vapour pressure P and the second virial coefficient as fiinctions of the reduced temperature showmg that the law of corresponding states is obeyed approximately by the substances indicated in the figures. The useflilness of the law also lies in its predictive value.

Figure B3.3.12. Sulphur atoms in liquid iron at the Earth s core conditions, simnlated by first-principle Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics, (a) Initial conditions, showing a mannally-prepared initial cluster of snlphur atoms, (b) A short tune later, indicating spontaneous dispersal of the snlphur atoms, which mingle with the surroundmg iron atoms. Thanks are dne to D Alfe and M J Gillan for this figure. For fiirtlier details see [210. 211].

The relative molecular dynamics fluctuations shown in Figure 7-17 can be compared with the crystallographic B-factors, which are also called temperature factors. The latter name, especially, indicates the information content of these factors they show how well defined within the X-ray structure the position of an atom is. Atoms with high temperature have an increased mobility. In principle, this is the same information as is provided by the molecular dynamics fluctuations. Using Eq. (48), the RMS fluctuation of an atom j can be converted into a B-factor... 

The principle of this test is as follows The liquid suspected of containing urea is treated with dilute acid or alkali until its pH is about 7. A solution of the enzyme is also made and its pH adjusted to 7. The two solutions are mixed and the resulting conversion of urea to ammonium carbonate causes the pH of the solution to rise to over 8 this change is noted by the use of a suitable indicator, phenol-red being the one usually employed. Proteins do not interfere with the test, but the reaction is inhibited by traces of heavy metals. 

The isomer proportions for the nitration of the chlorotoluenes, to be expected from the additivity principle, have been calculated from the partial rate factors for the nitration of toluene and chlorobenzene and compared with experimental results for nitration with nitric acid at o °C. The calculated values are indicated in brackets beside the experimental values on the following structural formulae. In general, it can be... 

Syntheses of alkenes with three or four bulky substituents cannot be achieved with an ylide or by a direct coupling reaction. Sterical hindrance of substituents presumably does not allow the direct contact of polar or radical carbon synthons in the transition state. A generally applicable principle formulated by A. Eschenmoser indicates a possible solution to this problem //an intermolecular reaction is complex or slow, it is advisable to change the educt in such a way. that the critical bond formation can occur intramolecularly (A. Eschenmoser, 1970). 

Both 2-hydroxythiazoie and 2-mercaptothiazoIe have been studied to determine the position of the protomeric equilibrium 43 7 43a 43b (Scheme 17). Most studies indicate that form 43a is largely predominant in neutral solution for X = 0 and X=S (52-56, 887, 891). The basic principle is to compare a physical property of the investigated product with that of a model representative of each protomeric form. The similarity of physicochemical properties between the product and one of the model compounds is taken as evidence for the position of the protomeric equilibrium. The limits of such an approach have been discussed in detail elsewhere (57). 

The electromagnetic spectrum is a quantum effect and the width of a spectral feature is traceable to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. The mechanical spectrum is a classical resonance effect and the width of a feature indicates a range of closely related r values for the model elements. 

A molecule has a permanent dipole moment if any of the symmetry species of the translations and/or T( and/or 1/ is totally symmetric. Using the appropriate character table apply this principle to each of these molecules and indicate the direction of any non-zero dipole moment.
