The thermodynamic of the known and very effective catalytic system, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and methyltrioxorhenium (MTO) is studied in different solvents using UV-Visible spectroscopic method. The thermodynamic parameters (ΔG, ΔH and ΔS) for two equilibrium reactions, MTO + H2O2 ⇌ A + H2O and A + H2O2 ⇌ B.H2O (A, [MeRe(O)2(O2)]; B.H2O, [MeRe(OH2)(O)(O2)2]), are determined. The obtained free e...

Vapor-liquid equilibrium relationships are important properties for practical use, such as in the design and operation of distillation equipment. In general, vapor-liquid equilibrium relations are determined experimentally, and it is a custom to test the thermodynamic consistency of the equilibrium data. Investigators1^4-15'17'19~22-24) have proposed various methods for testing thermodynamic co...

Conditions for thermodynamic equilibrium of liquid drops on solid substrates are presented. It is shown that if surface force (disjoining/conjoining Derjaguin pressure) action in a vicinity of the three-phase contact line is taken into account the condition of thermodynamic equilibrium is duly satisfied. Then the thermodynamic expressions for equilibrium contact angles of drops on solid substra...

This study investigated the feasibility of Date-palm) Phoenix dactylifera (Leaf Ash (DLA) (an inexpensive agricultural-byproduct) as an application to adsorb Pb(II) ions. An adsorption process was carried out to evaluate initial concentration Pb(II) ions, adsorbent dose, contact time, pH and temperature on the systematic removal of Pb(II). The effects were examined and results showed that remov...

In this study, the adsorption of mercury ions by Sargassum bevanom (S. bevanom) by batch method was investigated. The optimum operating parameters such adsorbent dosage, contact time, and pH, were obtained as: a biomass dose of 0.4 g in 100 ml of mercury solution, contact time of 90 mins and pH 7, respectively. Three equations Morris –Weber, Lagergren and pseudo second order are tested to verif...

In this paper, we present the theoretical approach developed by us in the network of dielectric fractional theories. In particular, we mention the general aspects of the non-equilibrium thermodynamics, and after an introduction to the interaction between biological tissues and electrical fields, we highlight the role of phenomenological and state equations; therefore, we recall a general formul...

When a liquid containing nanoparticles evaporates, many fascinating transitory structures can form [1]. While certain experimental results can be explained using thermodynamic arguments alone, drying-assisted aggregation of nanoparticles is, in principle, a non-equilibrium phenomenon [2]. Understanding this evolution towards a new equilibrium state at a microscopic level is the first step in a ...

Abstract Thermodynamic resources, beyond their well-known usefulness in work extraction and other thermodynamic tasks, are often important also tasks that not evidently thermodynamic. Here we develop a framework for identifying such resources diverse applications of bosonic continuous-variable systems. Introducing the class linear thermal operations to model operationally feasible processes, ap...

Group electronegativities, which take into account the influence of chemical environment, are calculated. Equilibrium electronegativity is defined on the basis of group electronegativity. Using relative bond lengths and equilibrium electronegativies, we create a novel semiempirical topological descriptor, Nt. A quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) model is subsequently developed ...

The 205-316 C-terminal fragment of thermolysin has been studied by differential scanning calorimetry at pH values 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 and 5.0 and at a constant ionic strength of 130 mM. The thermal unfolding of the fragment occurs at thermodynamic equilibrium under our experimental conditions. The effect of sample concentration at the different pH values on the calorimetric traces is consistent ...
