In a study of the alkaline hydrolysis of ethyl 2-methylpropenoate in 84.7% ethanol, Thomas Watson (JACS 77 3962, 1956) obtained the data of the first two columns of the table, t in sec, NaOH titre/cc. The initial concentrations of both ester (A) and alkali (B) were 0.058 mol/liter. 10 cc of the reaction mixture were removed from the vessel at the time stated, pipetted into 10 cc of 0.0668 mol/liter HC1 and the excess titrated with 0.0511 nol/liter NaOH. Find the mean value of the second order specific rate.

Some opportunities of such approximations are well illustrated by considering two characteristic examples. The first example will be a dusty-gas model, where porous media is considered as one of components of a gas mix of huge molecules (or particles of a dust), mobile or rigidly fixed in space [249,252,253], Such a model allows a direct application of methods and results of kinetic theory of gases and is effectively applied to the description of mass transfer processes in PS. The history of such an approach, the origins of which can be found in the works by Thomas Graham (1830 to 1840) is considered in Ref. [249], Actually, the model was first proposed by James Maxwell (1860), further it was independently reported by Deryagin and Bakanov (1957), and then also independently reported by Evans, Watson, and Mason (1961 see Refs. [249,252]). 

Thomas and Watson ( 9) of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory have shown that detached spiral wire turbulence promoters, positioned away from an RO membrane surface by small wire runners, markedly increased the rejection of salts and the permeation rate through the membrane. "Detached promoters" of this type may be designed to minimize stagnant regions in addition, they are relatively easy to install. 

Figure 26 presents their results for the rejection of 0.01 M MgCJl2 400 psi on a dynamic membrane as a function of where U is the linear velocity down the tube, v is the permeation rate, and N is the Reynolds number. It will be noted that the greatest effect of the turbulence promoter was observed at the lowest velocities, where the rejection increased from 25 to 72 percent. At the highest tangential velocities, the improvement was much less, from 90 to 93 percent. In addition, Thomas and Watson observed an increase in permeation rate varying from 10 to 50 percent. Thus, with turbulence promoters, the same rejection and flux, as in an unpromoted system, may be obtained at a considerable reduction.

A third part of an electric circuit is a rectifier, a device that allows the flow of electrons in only one direction. As early as 1974, two researchers, Ari Avram at the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center and Mark A. Ratner at Northwestern University, suggested the possibility that single molecules might he constructed that would operate as rectifiers. Some 23 years later, that goal was achieved by a team of researchers at the University of Alabama at Tuscaloosa led by Robert M. Metzger.
