Oiganic substances

An ionophoie may be defined as an oiganic substance that binds a polar compound and acts as an ion-transfer agent to facilitate movement of... [Pg.409]

The introduction of 0 in the equations for current density need by no means refer only to the adsorbed intermediates in the electrode reaction. What of other entities that may he adsorbed on the surface For example, suppose one adds to the solution an oiganic substance (e.g., aniline) and this becomes adsorbed on the electrode surface. Then, the 0 for the adsorbed organic substance must also be allowed for in the electrode kinetic equations. So, in Eq. (7.149), the value of 0 would really have to become a 0, where the summation is over all the entities that remain upon the surface and block off sites for the discharging entities. Many practical aspects of electrodics arise from this aspect of the Butler-Volmer equation. For example, the action of organic corrosion inhibitors partly arises in this way (adsorption and blocking of the surface of the electrode and hence reduction of the rate of the corrosion reaction per apparent unit area).67... [Pg.475]

Carbonization. Next to combustion, carbonization represents one of the largest uses of coal (2,24—26). Carbonization is essentially a process for the production of a carbonaceous residue by thermal decomposition, accompanied by simultaneous removal of distillate, of oiganic substances. [Pg.63]

Parachor is the name (199) of a temperature-independent parameter to be used in calculating physical properties. Parachor is a function of liquid density, vapor density, and surface tension, and can be estimated from structural information. Critical constants for about 100 oiganic substances have been correlated to a set of equations involving parachors and molar refraction (200). [Pg.253]

Equation 57 is typically observed for partitioning processes, for example, for the (ab)sorption of nonpolar oiganic substances in a solid matrix containing organic (humus-like) material. Equation 57 corresponds also to the initial linear portion of a Langmuir isotherm or to a Freundlich equation S = KpC, where b = 1. Note that colloid-facilitated transport is excluded in this treatment. [Pg.595]

Acetamide [60-35-5], C2H5NO, mol wt 59.07, is a white, ododess, hygroscopic solid dedved from acetic acid and ammonia. The stable crystalline habit is trigonal the metastable is orthorhombic. The melt is a solvent for oiganic substances it is used in electrochemistry and oiganic synthesis. Pure acetamide has a bitter taste. Unknown impurities, possibly derived from acetonitrile, cause its mousy odor (1). It is found in coal mine waste dumps (2). [Pg.73]

In order that the extraction process be efficient, the distribution coefficient of the solute between the added solvent and the solvent in which it is already dissolved should be very high. Normally organic solutes are highly soluble in organic solvents like ether, chloroform, benzene, etc., compared to their solubility in water and this method is particularly useful for the extraction of oiganic substances fiem their aqueous solution. [Pg.221]

Van der Waals forces and many absorption mechanisms are credited in forming surface layers of oiganic substances on the surfaces of fillers. These are used frequently to explain the reinforcing nature of many fillers with special attention to various forms of silica. It is known that the low molecular polymeric fragments are more likely to be involved in these interactions because they are more mobile and they have a higher probability to meet a suitable partner for interaction. It is... [Pg.58]

A vitamin is a complex oiganic substance required in the diet in small amounts, whose absence leads to a deficiency disease. Nine vitamins are water soluble (B group and C). They are normally stored in very small amounts and therefore are needed on a regular basis. They are generally not toxic in excess. The B group of vitamins acts as cofactors in the pathways of intermediary metaboUsm. [Pg.98]

The time has long since passed when one could rely on gas chromatographic or liquid chromatographic data alone to identify unknown compounds in water or other environmental samples. The sheer numbers of compounds present in such materials would invalidate the use of these tedmiques, and even in the case of simple mixtures the time required for identification would be too great to provide essential information in the case, for example, of accidental spillage of an oiganic substance into a water course or inlet to a water treatment plant where information is required very rapidly. [Pg.26]
