Matter highest density

The inorganic-matter bulk density is greater in the upper half of the core, reaching highest concentrations within the 0-5 cm and 26-42 cm depth intervals, where it averages 0.2 gm/cm or 50% above the mean for the whole core. The mean-bulk density over limited depths was estimated from the slope of the line through the appropriate segment of the... 

In most nuclear reactors, thermal neutrons, that is, neutrons that are in thermal equilibrium with matter at room temperature, have by far the highest density. The velocity of thermal neutrons exhibits a Maxwell distribution known from the kinetic theory of gases, where the number of neutrons having a velocity between v and v + dv is expressed in terms of the total number of neutrons, temperature, and velocity. Neutron density per unit velocity is given by the equation... 

York announce that they have used a particle accelerator to create the highest density matter ever seen on Earth. By smashing gold nuclei at nearly the speed of light, the scientists produced densities more than 20 times greater than those found in the nuclei of ordinary matter. 

Concentrations of particulate matter and S02, accordingly, are the highest in cities with extremely high population densities, low technical standards and an excessive use of two wheelers, as is the case for Asian agglomerations. The worst conditions are observed in Delhi, Beijing, Tehran and Mumbai. But Western European cities also... 

The highest energy density could be achieved with lithium-metal electrodes. The first section (a) of Table 10 is devoted to such systems. It should be mentioned that the examples given there are partly a matter of historical development, e.g., earlier r.b.s with a lithium negative electrode would be built today with the more stable negative electrodes of the LiAl or LiCg type cf. sections (b) and (c) of Table 10. 

By far the highest concentrations, especially of AHTN, were detected in sediments near the river mouth at sites 3 and 1. These are also the only sites where AHMI was detectable. In this area, the supply of polycyclic musks is relatively low because of a low population density (Fig. 2). Hence, particularly favourable conditions for the accumulation of suspended particulate matter from upstream areas must be the reason for this pattern. This could be due to three factors i) low flow velocity, ii) high input of terrestrial detritus and, thus, large supply of suspended particulate matter for adsorption of contaminants, and iii) input of highly contaminated particles which were transported from the upper reaches of the river. 

Just how the electrons are associated with the ammonia molecules or the solvated metal ions is still a matter of discussion. However, the most satisfactory models assume that the electron is not localized but is smeared out over a large volume so that the surrounding solvent molecules experience electronic and orientational polarization. The electron is trapped in the —resultant-polarization—field—and—r-epulsion-between the -electron and the-electrons of the solvent molecules leads to the formation of a cavity within which the electron has the highest probability of being found. In ammonia this is estimated to be approximately 3-3.4 A in diameter this cavity concept is based on the fact that solutions are of much lower density than the pure solvent, i.e. they occupy far greater volume than that expected from the sum of the volumes of metal and solvent. 

The two new a bonds that are formed in a Diels-Alder reaction result from a transfer of electron density between the reactants. Molecular orbtial theory provides an insight into this process. When electrons are transferred between molecules, we must use the HOMO (highest occupied molecular orbital) of one reactant and the LUMO (lowest unoccupied molecular orbital) of the other because only an empty orbital can accept electrons. It doesn t matter whether we use the HOMO of the dienophile and the LUMO of the diene or the HOMO of the diene and the LUMO of the dienophile. We just need to use the HOMO of one and the LUMO of the other. 

The least energetic state of matter is the solid. There is so little space between molecules that solids are mostly rigid and not easily penetrated. The solid state density is therefore usually the highest of the three states of matter. A notable exception, however, occurs in the case of water, where the crystal structure of ice is less dense than nonCTystaUine liquid water. This is fortunate, because a layer of ice floating on liquid water allows aquatic life to be sustained in the liquid, and the ice acts as an insulating barrier to trap heat in the liquid below. 

The National Academy of Science document (74) on particulate organic matter has stressed the importance of this reactivity for gas-particle interactions. Several common gaseous pollutants, e.g. 0 NO ground state or excited singlet molecular oxygen (in the presence of light), or hydroxyl radicals all can react as electrophiles with the carbon positions or double bonds of highest electron density of PAH.
