Energy term

Strictly, these values are bond enthalpies, but the term energies is commonly used. Other descriptions are average standard bond energies, mean bond energies . [Pg.47]

We will use the term energy surface to refer not only to systems in which the bonding remains unchanged, as in these two examples, but also where bonds are broken and/or formed. Our discussion will be appropriate to both quantum mechanics and molecular mechanics, except where otherwise stated. [Pg.271]

For successful interruption of the arc plasma it is essential that the energy emitted by the arc plasma is at least equal to the capacitive energy received by the dielectric medium. At the instant of arc extinction, this phenomenon is termed energy balancing, when... [Pg.649]

To release energy, the electrons can be removed from glucose and used to create ATP, a molecule that supplies a cell s short-term energy needs. This latter occurs in a series of reactions known as respiration. (Body heat is a by-product of these reactions.) The most efficient respiration reactions are those that use oxygen to accept the electrons removed from glucose. Thus respiration is the reverse of photosynthe-... [Pg.180]

To provide long-term energy trends to the Department, President, Congress and the public, the DOE set up a statistics division called the Energy Information Administration. The federal govern-... [Pg.586]

Having met Joule for the first time at the 1847 meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science in Oxford, Thomson initially accepted that Joule s experiments had shown that work converted into heat. Committed to Carnot s theory of the production of work from a fall of heat, however, he could not accept the converse proposition that work had been converted into heat could simply be recovered as useful work. Therefore, he could not agree to Joule s claim for mutual convertibility. By 1848 he had appropriated from the lectures of the late Thomas Young (reprinted in the mid-1840s) the term energy as a synonym for vis viva (the term in use at the time, traditionally measured as mtc) and its equivalent terms such as work, but as yet the term appeared only in a footnote. [Pg.1137]

In the public sector, we must continue to pave the way for deployment of a broad spectrum of energy technologies - cleaner fossil fuels, nuclear, renewables. There is no silver bullet technology that will by itself meet our near to mid-term energy needs. [Pg.53]

The only lanthanide of which there is no stable isotope — they all decompose with half-lives between 2.6 and 17.7 years. Strong beta-emitters that are used industrially as thickness gauges. Also suitable as an additive for fluorescent materials. Produced artificially in kg amounts and serves as an energy provider for satellites in radionucleide batteries. Tiny batteries are long-term energy sources for pacemakers. [Pg.143]
