  2. Iodoform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodoform

    Iodoform stored in an ampoule. Iodoform (also known as triiodomethane) is the organoiodine compound with the chemical formula C H I 3.It is a pale yellow, crystalline, volatile substance, with a penetrating and distinctive odor (in older chemistry texts, the smell is sometimes referred to as that of hospitals, where the compound is still commonly used) and, analogous to chloroform, sweetish taste.

  3. Iodine clock reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodine_clock_reaction

    The iodine clock reaction is a classical chemical clock demonstration experiment to display chemical kinetics in action; it was discovered by Hans Heinrich Landolt in 1886. [1] The iodine clock reaction exists in several variations, which each involve iodine species ( iodide ion, free iodine, or iodate ion) and redox reagents in the presence of ...

  4. Haloform reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haloform_reaction

    In chemistry, the haloform reaction (also referred to as the Lieben haloform reaction) is a chemical reaction in which a haloform (CHX 3, where X is a halogen) is produced by the exhaustive halogenation of an acetyl group (R−C(=O)CH 3, where R can be either a hydrogen atom, an alkyl or an aryl group), in the presence of a base.

  5. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    There are two main descriptions of motion: dynamics and kinematics.Dynamics is general, since the momenta, forces and energy of the particles are taken into account. In this instance, sometimes the term dynamics refers to the differential equations that the system satisfies (e.g., Newton's second law or Euler–Lagrange equations), and sometimes to the solutions to those equations.

  6. Verlet integration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verlet_integration

    This equation, for various choices of the potential function , can be used to describe the evolution of diverse physical systems, from the motion of interacting molecules to the orbit of the planets. After a transformation to bring the mass to the right side and forgetting the structure of multiple particles, the equation may be simplified to

  7. Numerical solution of the convection–diffusion equation

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_solution_of_the...

    This article describes how to use a computer to calculate an approximate numerical solution of the discretized equation, in a time-dependent situation. In order to be concrete, this article focuses on heat flow, an important example where the convection–diffusion equation applies. However, the same mathematical analysis works equally well to ...

  8. Action (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_(physics)

    Given the initial and boundary conditions for the situation, the "solution" to these empirical equations is one or more functions that describe the behavior of the system and are called equations of motion. Action is a part of an alternative approach to finding such equations of

  9. Marcus theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcus_theory

    In outer sphere redox reactions no bonds are formed or broken; only an electron transfer (ET) takes place. A quite simple example is the Fe 2+ /Fe 3+ redox reaction, the self exchange reaction which is known to be always occurring in an aqueous solution containing the aquo complexes [Fe(H 2 O) 6] 2+ and [Fe(H 2 O)6] 3+.
