Problems Hydrogen

Interactions between hydrogen-bond donor and acceptor groups in different molecules play a pivotal role in many chemical and biological problems. Hydrogen bonds can be studied with quantum chemical calculations and empirical methods. 

Consider the following problem Hydrogen iodide, HI, decomposes through a second-order process to the elements. The rate constant is 2.40 x 10 21/M s at 25°C. How long will it take for the concentration of HI to drop from 0.200 M to 0.190 M at 25°C ...

Hydro-treating of the middle distillates must be accompUshed to reduce sulfur for the obvious environmental concerns as well as to eliminate downstream processing problems. Hydrogenation of sulfur compounds over cobalt-moly or nickel-moly catalyst is generally of the first-order kinetics with respect to the sulfur compounds. Thiophenic sulfur is more difflcult to hydrogenate than sulfides, disulfides, and mer-... 

The interaction of water with other inorganic solids such as ceramics, glasses and catalysts is often a key scientific and technological problem. Hydrogen species in such cases are invariably bonded to oxygen and can occur in many different forms. Protons can be present in a crystal structure as stoichiometric OH groups, water molecules, or hydro-nium ions. Hydroxyl groups can also play an important role in substitutions such as... 

Hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide (as carbonic acid and free carbon dioxide) are commonly found in well water. Even a low concentration of hydrogen sulfide can cause odor and taste problems. Hydrogen sulfide is a colorless gas which has a foul odor similar to rotten eggs and is slightly heavier than air (SG = 1.192). In water, molecular hydrogen sulfide is formed from the reduction, dissolves and disassociates in accordance with the reversible ionization reactions ... 

An onboard hydrogen tank has several problems. Hydrogen leaks easily, is hard to store and hard to compress and burns quickly. Overcoming all these concerns may be costly. Refueling may tend to be difficult although there are a number of hydrogen refueling stations in use around the world. 

Problem Hydrogen chloride reacts strongly with water and forms hydrochloric acid solution (see E7.8 Tip ) HC1 molecules react by the transfer of protons to H20 molecules and create hydronium ions H30 + (aq) and chloride ions Cl (aq) (see Fig. 7.12). In order to follow this process in an experiment, the colors of universal indicator and the electrical conductivity should be tested and interpreted in this reaction. 

Problem Hydrogen peroxide is a powerful oxidizing agent used in concentrated solution in rocket fuels and in dilute solution as a hair bleach. An aqueous solution of H2O2 is 30.0% by mass and has a density of 1.11 g/mL. Calculate its... 

Applications of NMR in natural product chemistry have been reviewed [63], as have applications to other structural problems, hydrogen bonding, tautomerism and mechanistic studies [64]. 

Problem Hydrogen gas has a nonpolluting combustion product (water vapor). It is used as a fuel aboard the space shuttle and in earthbound cars with prototype engines ...
