  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Thus a prism of 1 Δ would produce 1 cm visible displacement at 100 cm, or 1 meter. This can be represented mathematically as: = ⁡ where is the amount of prism correction in prism dioptres, and is the angle of deviation of the light.

  3. Fine structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fine_structure

    Relativistic corrections (Dirac) to the energy levels of a hydrogen atom from Bohr's model. The fine structure correction predicts that the Lyman-alpha line (emitted in a transition from n = 2 to n = 1) must split into a doublet. The total effect can also be obtained by using the Dirac equation. In this case, the electron is treated as non ...

  4. BET theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BET_theory

    The resulting BET equation is θ = c p ( 1 − p / p o ) ( p o + p ( c − 1 ) ) {\displaystyle \theta ={\frac {cp}{(1-p/p_{o}){\bigl (}p_{o}+p(c-1){\bigr )}}}} where c is referred to as the BET C-constant, p o {\displaystyle p_{o}} is the vapor pressure of the adsorptive bulk liquid phase which would be at the temperature of the adsorbate and ...

  5. Davies equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Davies_equation

    The Davies equation is an empirical extension of Debye–Hückel theory which can be used to calculate activity coefficients of electrolyte solutions at relatively high concentrations at 25 °C. The equation, originally published in 1938, [1] was refined by fitting to experimental data.

  6. Specific rotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_rotation

    In this case, a correction factor in the numerator is necessary:: 248 : 123 [ α ] λ T = 100 × α l × c {\displaystyle [\alpha ]_{\lambda }^{T}={\frac {100\times \alpha }{l\times c}}} When using this equation, the concentration and the solvent may be provided in parentheses after the rotation.

  7. Pitzer equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitzer_equations

    Pitzer equations [1] are important for the understanding of the behaviour of ions dissolved in natural waters such as rivers, lakes and sea-water. [2] [3] [4] They were first described by physical chemist Kenneth Pitzer. [5] The parameters of the Pitzer equations are linear combinations of parameters, of a virial expansion of the excess Gibbs ...

  8. Chemical equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_equation

    A chemical equation is the symbolic representation of a chemical reaction in the form of symbols and chemical formulas.The reactant entities are given on the left-hand side and the product entities are on the right-hand side with a plus sign between the entities in both the reactants and the products, and an arrow that points towards the products to show the direction of the reaction.

  9. Redlich–Kwong equation of state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redlich–Kwong_equation_of...

    The Redlich–Kwong equation is formulated as: [1] [3] where: p is the gas pressure. R is the gas constant, T is temperature, Vm is the molar volume ( V / n ), a is a constant that corrects for attractive potential of molecules, and. b is a constant that corrects for volume.

  10. Mass flow rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_flow_rate

    Mass flow rate can be calculated by multiplying the volume flow rate by the mass density of the fluid, ρ. The volume flow rate is calculated by multiplying the flow velocity of the mass elements, v, by the cross-sectional vector area, A. Mass flow rate can also be calculated by. where. V ˙ {\displaystyle {\dot {V}}}

  11. Scherrer equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scherrer_Equation

    The Scherrer equation, in X-ray diffraction and crystallography, is a formula that relates the size of sub-micrometre crystallites in a solid to the broadening of a peak in a diffraction pattern. It is often referred to, incorrectly, as a formula for particle size measurement or analysis.
