Chemical principle

Since the early 1940s, insecticides have been of immeasurable value in curbing the ravages of insect pests. In the words of the National Academy of Sciences "...when their use is approached from sound ecological principles, chemical pesticides provide dependable and valuable tools for the biologist. Their use is indispensable in modem society. There are many problems of insect pest control for which the use of chemicals provides the only acceptable solution. Chemical pesticides will continue to be one of the most dependable weapons for the entomologist for the foreseeable future" (6).

Engineering calculations predict emission rates without tlie use of emission factors. These calculations use basic science and engineering principles, chemical property data, and operating conditions to provide a detailed analysis of the emissions for a specific process. Tliis is a more sophisticated approach tluui emission factors, and is useful for evaluating various operational and control alteniatives.

Because the Magnum Opus was referred to as the year and thought to go through the 12 signs of the zodiac, alchemists sometimes made lists of 12 principle chemical operations that comprised the Magnum Opus instead of seven. The 12 signs of the zodiac were also equated to 12 chief substances.

Electric arc furnace dust is a listed hazardous chemical waste. This material is deemed hazardous because it contains relatively high concentrations of heavy metals. The waste consists of the emission control dust or sludge collected from electric arc furnaces during the manufacture of iron and steel. The principle chemicals of concern and their concentrations are listed in Table 7.5 (EPA, 1988).

By comparison, a saturated methine carbon (C-H) has a CSA of only 25 ppm because the mobility of electrons around the carbon nucleus is much less in an sp3-hybridized carbon and depends much less on the orientation of the C-H bond with respect to B0. In solution-state NMR we only see the isotropic chemical shift, < iso, and the fixed-position chemical shifts and the CSA value are obtained from solid-state NMR measurements. Although CSA does not affect chemical shifts in solution, it does contribute to NMR relaxation and can be exploited to sharpen peaks of large molecules such as proteins in solution. For large molecules, such as proteins, nucleic acids, and polymers, or in viscous solutions, molecular tumbling is slow and CSA broadens NMR lines due to incomplete averaging of the three principle chemical shift values on the NMR timescale. Like isotropic chemical shifts, CSA in parts per million is independent of magnetic field strength B0 but is proportional to B0 when expressed in hertz. Because linewidths are measured in... 

In principle, chemical information on a system can only be obtained with methods that do not alter the species present in solution. However, in order to get this information, an external perturbation must be applied to the system and its response must be analyzed. In the case of radioactive tracer, where the radioactivity measurement is the only way to detect the element (but it does not allow the identification of the form of the species), two types of external perturbation can be applied (i) by contacting the system with a second phase and subsequently observing the distribution of the radionuclides between the two phases (static or dynamic partition) or (ii) by applying an electrical potential or a chemical gradient (transport methods). So far, transport methods have not yet been used in one-atom-at-a-time... 

As a consequence of the close-packing principle, chemically different molecules with similar shape and volume should have identical crystal structures [27]. Substances forming mixed crystals must be isomorphous (i.e., not only must they have an identical space group and the same number of molecules, but also a similar molecular packing), otherwise there will be a discontinuity in their solubility curve [5]. For example, benzoic acid and isopropylbenzene, in spite of the similarity in... 

We repeat the statement of the general principle chemical equilibrium is a steady state, in which opposing chemical reactions occur at equal rates. 

We have mentioned before the possibility of combining chemical evolution with self-replication. In principle, chemical evolution can be associated to self-reproducing micelles or vesicles. There are in principle two ways to conceive this in this case on the one hand, the surfactants of the self-reproducing vesicles could be chemically transformed during their reproduction cycles into compounds which may give rise to more efficient cell-like compartments. This possibility has been discussed theoretically some time ago. On the other hand, the supramolecular structure can help and determine the evolution of internalized compounds—i.e. permitting certain reactions and avoiding others thanks to the semipermeable character of the membrane. As already mentioned, studies of this type with vesicles still remain to be initiated. 

Conforming to these principles, Chemical Abstracts Service has devised a stereochemical notation which was first introduced into the Chemical Abstracts Service Chemical Registry. System and CA Indexes in 1972 (7) and was extended to higher coordination numbers in 1977 (8).
