An additional advantage derived from plotting the residuals is that it can aid in detecting a bad data point. If one of the points noticeably deviates from the trend line, it is probably due to a mistake in sampling, analysis, or reporting. The best action would be to repeat the measurement. However, this is often impractical. The alternative is to reject the datum if its occurrence is so improbable that it would not reasonably be expected to occur in the given set of experiments. 

Monitoring and control of the production process will be performed by a combination of instrumentation and control equipment plus manual involvement. The level of sophistication of the systems can vary considerably. For example, monitoring well performance can be done in a simple fashion by sending a man to write down and report the tubing head pressures of producing wells on a daily basis, or at the other extreme by using computer assisted operations (CAO) which uses a remote computer-based system to control production on a well by well basis with no physical presence at the wellhead. 

Having set up the ultrasonic instrument (according to test specifications), the inspector scans the weld volume. Any indications subject to recording are interpreted and documented in a handwritten on-site report. The test report only describes the indications detected by the inspector, but not the completeness of the lest in the sense of a documented 100% volume testing as is the case with X-ray testing. 

McBain reports the following microtome data for a phenol solution. A solution of 5 g of phenol in 1000 g of water was skimmed the area skimmed was 310 cm and a 3.2-g sample was obtained. An interferometer measurement showed a difference of 1.2 divisions between the bulk and the scooped-up solution, where one division corresponded to 2.1 X 10 g phenol per gram of water concentration difference. Also, for 0.05, 0.127, and 0.268M solutions of phenol at 20°C, the respective surface tensions were 67.7, 60.1, and 51.6 dyn/cm. Calculate the surface excess Fj from (a) the microtome data, (b) for the same concentration but using the surface tension data, and (c) for a horizontally oriented monolayer of phenol (making a reasonable assumption as to its cross-sectional area). 

Bartell and co-workers report the following capillary pressure data in porous plug experiments using powdered carbon. Benzene, which wets carbon, showed a capillary pressure of 6200 g/cm. For water, the pressure was 12,000 g/cm, and for ben-... 

Electrolyte adsorption on metals is important in electrochemistry [167,168]. One study reports the adsorption of various anions an Ag, Au, Rh, and Ni electrodes using ellipsometry. Adsorbed film thicknesses now also depend on applied potential. 

For example, van den Tempel [35] reports the results shown in Fig. XIV-9 on the effect of electrolyte concentration on flocculation rates of an O/W emulsion. Note that d ln)ldt (equal to k in the simple theory) increases rapidly with ionic strength, presumably due to the decrease in double-layer half-thickness and perhaps also due to some Stem layer adsorption of positive ions. The preexponential factor in Eq. XIV-7, ko = (8kr/3 ), should have the value of about 10 " cm, but at low electrolyte concentration, the values in the figure are smaller by tenfold or a hundredfold. This reduction may be qualitatively ascribed to charged repulsion. 

Drain and Morrison (1) report the following data for the adsorption of N2 on rutile at 75 K, where P is in millimeters of mercury and v in cubic centimeters STP per gram. 

Where E is appreciable, adsorption rates may be followed by ordinary means. In a rather old but still informative study, Scholten and co-workers [130] were able to follow the adsorption of N2 on an iron catalyst gravimetrically, and reported the rate law...

The lowest order contributions to the energy are described by the conical parameters g, h, and s, k = x,y,z, or by d, A = 1,2 and s, k = x,y,z-Here and below the superscript ij is suppressed when no confusion will result. We also will use the nonrelativistic convention g - x,fi" y and h J z, where is real is parallel to. These parameters [9] are reported in Figure 4a and b. Their continuity is attributable to the use of orthogonal intersection adapted coordinates. For comparison, Figure 4a and b reports the nonrelativistic quantities g , and s, respectively. While noting that there is no unique correspondence... 

Although, the notion of molecular dynamics was known in the early turn of the century, the first conscious effort in the use of computer for molecular dynamics simulation was made by Alder and Wainright, who in their paper [1] reported the application of molecular dynamics to realistic particle systems. Using hard spheres potential and fastest computers at the time, they were able to simulate systems of 32 to 108 atoms in 10 to 30 hours. Since the work of Alder and Wainright, interests in MD have increased tremendously, see... 

In the ancient times" the 1950s), data were transferred to computers by using punched cards. But already in 1959 Ascher Opier from Dow Chemical Company reported the use of a light pen for graphical entiy of chemical structures into a computer. Light pens were also used in the Chemical Abstracts Service in the 1970s. 

In addition to bein g able to plot sim pie in stan tan eous values of a quantity x along a trajectory and reporting the average, , HyperChem can also report information about the deviation of x from its average value. Ihese RMS deviations may have particular sign ifican ce in statistical tn ech an ics or just represen t lh e process of convergence of the trajectory values. 

When we report the result of a measurement a , there are two things a person reading the report wants to know the magnitude (size) of the measurement and the reliability of the measurement (its scatter ). If measuring errors are random, as they very frequently are, the magnitude is best expressed as the arithmetic mean p of N repeated tr ials xi... 

Even this number of signifieant digits is open to debate. Do we really know X to an aeeuiaey of 1 nm Does it matter for the relatively flat peaks in Eig. 2-3 What about d2M = 0.048 Is it better to report the eoneentration veetor to two signifieant digits Diseuss these questions in your report.

It turned out that the dodecylsulfate surfactants Co(DS)i Ni(DS)2, Cu(DS)2 and Zn(DS)2 containing catalytically active counterions are extremely potent catalysts for the Diels-Alder reaction between 5.1 and 5.2 (see Scheme 5.1). The physical properties of these micelles have been described in the literature and a small number of catalytic studies have been reported. The influence of Cu(DS)2 micelles on the kinetics of quenching of a photoexcited species has been investigated. Interestingly, Kobayashi recently employed surfactants in scandium triflate catalysed aldol reactions". Robinson et al. have demonshuted that the interaction between metal ions and ligand at the surface of dodecylsulfate micelles can be extremely efficient. ... 

It is the purpose of this and the following chapter to report the quantitative data concerning the relationship of structure to orientation and reactivity in aromatic nitration. Where data obtained by modern analytical methods are available they are usually quoted in preference to the results of older work. Many of the papers containing the latter are, however, noted in the brief discussion which is given of interpretations of the results. 

Dyatlova (193) reports the preparation of product 49, resulting from the dialkylation of 2-aminothiazole with a-chloroacetic acid under mild conditions (Scheme 36). 

Zugravescu reports the isolation of ring nitrogen substitution products (195) (Scheme 124) (325). and it is not clear whether direct electrophilic substitution in the 5-position is the general case or if the finally observed product results from rearrangement. 

A-4-Thiazoline-2-ones and ring substituted derivatives are usually prepared by the general ring-closure methods described in Chapter II. Some special methods where the thiazole ring is already formed have been used, however. An original synthesis of 4- 2-carboxyphenyl)-A-4-thiazoline-2-one (18) starting from 2-thiocyanato-2-halophenyl-l-3-indandione (19) has been proposed (Scheme 8) (20, 21). Reaction of bicyclic quaternary salts (20) may provide 3-substituted A-4-thiazoline-2-one derivatives (21) (Scheme 9) (22). Sykes et al. (23) report the formation of A-4-thiazoline-2-ones (24) by treatment ef 2-bromo (22) or 2-dimethylaminothiazole (23) quaternary salts with base (Scheme 10). 

Recently, Hoff and Blok report the reductive ring opening of 4-methyl-A-4-thiazoline-2-thione anion (80) (Scheme 39) (204) when treated with two equivalents of sodium in liquid amonia. Treatment of the prop-enethiolate (83) by 4N aqueous HCl affords 4-methylthiazole. The...
