Molecular weight definition

L exposure would produce 1 ML of adsorbates if the sticking coefficient were unity. Note that a quantitative calculation of the exposure per surface atom depends on the molecular weight of the gas molecules and on the actual density of surface atoms, but the approximations inlierent in the definition of tire Langmuir are often inconsequential. 

From this definition, we see it is the ratio of the third moment of the distribution about the molecular weight origin to the second moment about the origin. 

Equation (2.39) is the weight average molecular weight as defined in Sec. 1.8. It is important to note that this result. My = M y, applies only in the case of nonentangled chains where 17 is directly proportional to M. A more general definition of My for the case where 17 a is... 

The next step in the development of a model is to postulate a perfect network. By definition, a perfect network has no free chain ends. An actual network will contain dangling ends, but it is easier to begin with the perfect case and subsequently correct it to a more realistic picture. We define v as the number of subchains contained in this perfect network, a subchain being the portion of chain between the crosslink points. The molecular weight and degree of polymerization of the chain between crosslinks are defined to be Mj, and n, respectively. Note that these same symbols were used in the last chapter with different definitions. 

Prior to the discovery of plentihil suppHes of natural gas, and depending on the definition of the resources (1), there were plans to accommodate any shortfalls in gas supply from soHd fossil fuels and from gaseous resources by the conversion of hydrocarbon (petroleum) Hquids to lower molecular weight gaseous products. 

Model Networks. Constmction of model networks allows development of quantitative stmcture property relationships and provide the abiUty to test the accuracy of the theories of mbber elasticity (251—254). By definition, model networks have controlled molecular weight between cross-links, controlled cross-link functionahty, and controlled molecular weight distribution of cross-linked chains. Sihcones cross-linked by either condensation or addition reactions are ideally suited for these studies because all of the above parameters can be controlled. A typical condensation-cure model network consists of an a, CO-polydimethylsiloxanediol, tetraethoxysilane (or alkyltrimethoxysilane), and a tin-cure catalyst (255). A typical addition-cure model is composed of a, ffl-vinylpolydimethylsiloxane, tetrakis(dimethylsiloxy)silane, and a platinum-cure catalyst (256—258). 

E] Use s BoUes Fair (Ref. 75) data base to determine new effective area to use with Onda et al. (Ref. 126) correlation. Same definitions as 5-28-D. P = total pressure, atm Mq = gas, molecular weight m = local slope of equilibrium curve Lf /Gf = slope operating line Z = height of packing in feet. 

The general definition of a condensation reaction is a one that involves product formation by expulsion of water (or other small molecule) as a by-product. By this definition, activation and methylolation are also condensations. In more precise terms the chain-building process should be described as a condensation polymerization, however, in the jargon of the phenolics industry, the term condensation is usually reserved for the chain-building process. This terminology is not necessarily observed in the literature [88]. Many literature reports correctly refer to methylolation as a condensation reaction. The molecular weight development of the phenol alcohol adducts may also be classified as a step-polymerization. 

These data for typical properties of EP polymers are either as measured or as advertised by respective manufacturers. This table is not intended to be definitive either in terms of the total grade slate or the specific data reported for each producer. Note that the molecular weight distribution data are based on a qualitative comparison of GPC curves. Mooney viscosities are repotted for final product form (i.e.. in the case of oil-extended rubbers, the viscosity is that of the EP plus oil. 

Structural Formula Not definitely known has a molecular weight of about 3,300, a nitrogen content of about 7% and a carbohydrate content of 16 to 17%. 

If A Gx values are sufficiently lower (greater by absolute value) than AG of the rest of the components of free energy change, the process can proceed at all the values of molecular weights from the point of view of thermodynamics. Consequently, the application AG in the definite conditions is unadvisable. 

Where the molecular weight of a substance is not definitely known, it is obviously not possible to write down the molecular absorption coefficient, and in such cases it is usual to write the unit of concentration as a superscript, and the unit of length as a subscript. Thus... 

By definition, the molar mass of the end groups should be included in the molecular weight of a polymer but the corresponding quantity is not included in the degree of polymerization. 

The definition of molecular weight just given leads at once to the conclusion that equal volumes of different permanent gases,... 

This is called Avogadro s theorem (1811) it appears here simply as a definition of molecular weighty and this is really the manner in which the relation is applied in chemistry. The kinetic theory of gases gives a new, and much deeper, significance to the statement by introducing the conception of the molecule this, however, does not concern us in thermodynamics, and since the molecular weights are purely relative numbers, the deductions made in this hook are equally strict whichever standpoint is adopted.
