  2. Construction of electronic cigarettes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Construction_of_electronic...

    Cartomizers can be used on their own or in conjunction with a tank that allows more e-liquid capacity. [4] The portmanteau word "cartotank" has been coined for this. [86] When used in a tank, the cartomizer is inserted in a plastic, glass or metal tube and holes or slots have to be punched on the sides of the cartomizer so liquid can reach the ...

  3. Solvatochromism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvatochromism

    With various solvents there is a different effect on the electronic ground state and excited state of the solute, so that the size of energy gap between them changes as the solvent changes. This is reflected in the absorption or emission spectrum of the solute as differences in the position, intensity, and shape of the spectroscopic bands .

  4. Stereoselectivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoselectivity

    The selectivity arises from differences in steric and electronic effects in the mechanistic pathways leading to the different products. Stereoselectivity can vary in degree but it can never be total since the activation energy difference between the two pathways is finite: both products are at least possible and merely differ in amount. However ...

  5. Stereoelectronic effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoelectronic_effect

    Stereoelectronic effect can be directional in specific cases. The radius of sulfur is much larger than the radius of carbon and oxygen. Thus the differences in C–S bond distances generate a much-amplified difference in the two stereoelectronic effects in 1,3-dithiane (σ(C–H) → σ*(C–S)) than in 1,3-dioxane(σ(C–H) → σ*(C–O)). [6]

  6. Enantioselective synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enantioselective_synthesis

    Enantioselective synthesis, also called asymmetric synthesis, [1] is a form of chemical synthesis.It is defined by IUPAC as "a chemical reaction (or reaction sequence) in which one or more new elements of chirality are formed in a substrate molecule and which produces the stereoisomeric (enantiomeric or diastereomeric) products in unequal amounts."

  7. Activity coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activity_coefficient

    In thermodynamics, an activity coefficient is a factor used to account for deviation of a mixture of chemical substances from ideal behaviour. [1] In an ideal mixture, the microscopic interactions between each pair of chemical species are the same (or macroscopically equivalent, the enthalpy change of solution and volume variation in mixing is zero) and, as a result, properties of the mixtures ...

  8. Chemical ionization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_ionization

    To facilitate the reactions between the ions and molecules, the chamber is kept relatively gas tight at a pressure of about 1 torr. [7] Electrons are produced externally to the source volume (at a lower pressure of 10 −4 torr [ 7 ] or below) by heating a metal filament which is made of tungsten , rhenium , or iridium . [ 5 ]

  9. Solid-state chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_chemistry

    Solid-state chemistry, also sometimes referred as materials chemistry, is the study of the synthesis, structure, and properties of solid phase materials.It therefore has a strong overlap with solid-state physics, mineralogy, crystallography, ceramics, metallurgy, thermodynamics, materials science and electronics with a focus on the synthesis of novel materials and their characterization.
