  2. Fugacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fugacity

    The fugacity of a condensed phase (liquid or solid) is defined the same way as for a gas: = ⁡ and = It is difficult to measure fugacity in a condensed phase directly; but if the condensed phase is saturated (in equilibrium with the vapor phase), the chemical potentials of the two phases are equal (μ c = μ g).

  3. Actinometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actinometer

    Potassium ferrioxalate is commonly used, as it is simple to use and sensitive over a wide range of relevant wavelengths (254 nm to 500 nm). Other actinometers include malachite green leucocyanides, vanadium(V)–iron(III) oxalate and monochloroacetic acid, however all of these actinometers undergo dark reactions, that is, they react in the absence of light.

  4. Euler's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_formula

    The formula is still valid if x is a complex number, and is also called Euler's formula in this more general case. [1] Euler's formula is ubiquitous in mathematics, physics, chemistry, and engineering. The physicist Richard Feynman called the equation "our jewel" and "the most remarkable formula in mathematics". [2]

  5. pH - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PH

    This was the original definition of Sørensen in 1909, [18] which was superseded in favor of pH in 1924. [H] is the concentration of hydrogen ions, denoted [H +] in modern chemistry. More correctly, the thermodynamic activity of H + in dilute solution should be replaced by [H +]/c 0, where the standard state concentration c 0 = 1 mol/L. This ...

  6. Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Per-_and_polyfluoroalkyl...

    Skeletal structure of PFOS, an effective, persistent and bioaccumulative fluorosurfactant Space filling model of PFOS. Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances are a group of synthetic organofluorine chemical compounds that have multiple fluorine atoms attached to an alkyl chain.

  7. Esotropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esotropia

    Esotropia (from Greek eso 'inward' and trope 'a turning' [1]) is a form of strabismus in which one or both eyes turn inward. The condition can be constantly present, or occur intermittently, and can give the affected individual a "cross-eyed" appearance. [2]

  8. Standard deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_deviation

    In that case, the result of the original formula would be called the sample standard deviation and denoted by instead of . Dividing by rather than by gives an unbiased estimate of the variance of the larger parent population. This is known as Bessel's correction.

  9. Soil chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_chemistry

    Soil chemistry is the study of the chemical characteristics of soil.Soil chemistry is affected by mineral composition, organic matter and environmental factors. In the early 1870s a consulting chemist to the Royal Agricultural Society in England, named J. Thomas Way, performed many experiments on how soils exchange ions, and is considered the father of soil chemistry. [1]
