  2. Le Chatelier's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Chatelier's_principle

    When heat is removed and the temperature decreases, the reaction shifts to the left and the flask turns colorless due to an increase in N 2 O 4: again, according to Le Chatelier's principle. The effect of changing the temperature in the equilibrium can be made clear by 1) incorporating heat as either a reactant or a product, and 2) assuming ...

  3. Thermochemical cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermochemical_cycle

    Using a work input equals to a fraction f of the heat input is equivalent relative to the choice of the reactions to operate a pure similar thermochemical cycle but with a hot source with a temperature increased by the same proportion f. Naturally, this decreases the heat-to-work efficiency in the same proportion f. Consequently, if one want a ...

  4. Haber process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haber_process

    The gas mixture is cooled to 450 °C in a heat exchanger using water, freshly supplied gases, and other process streams. The ammonia also condenses and is separated in a pressure separator. Unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen are then compressed back to the process by a circulating gas compressor , supplemented with fresh gas, and fed to the ...

  5. Laminar flame speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laminar_flame_speed

    According to the thermal flame theory of Ernest-François Mallard and Le Chatelier, the un-stretched laminar flame speed is dependent on only three properties of a chemical mixture: the thermal diffusivity of the mixture, the reaction rate of the mixture and the temperature through the flame zone:

  6. On the Equilibrium of Heterogeneous Substances - Wikipedia

    [6] [7] As stated by Le Chatelier, it "founded a new department of chemical science that is becoming comparable in importance to that created by [Antoine] Lavoisier." This work was translated into German by Ostwald (who styled its author the "founder of chemical energetics") in 1891 and into French by Le Châtelier in 1899. [8]

  7. Shuttle catalysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shuttle_catalysis

    Shuttle catalysis is used to describe catalytic reactions where a chemical entity of a donor molecule is transferred to an acceptor molecule. [1] In these reactions, while the number of chemical bonds of each reactant changes, the types and total number of chemical bonds remain constant over the course of the reaction.

  8. Henry Louis Le Chatelier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Louis_Le_Chatelier

    Le Chatelier was born on 8 October 1850 in Paris and was the son of French materials engineer Louis Le Chatelier and Louise Durand. His father was an influential figure who played important roles in the birth of the French aluminium industry, the introduction of the Martin-Siemens processes into the iron and steel industries, and the rise of railway transportation.

  9. Bicarbonate buffer system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicarbonate_buffer_system

    By Le Chatelier's principle, the release of CO 2 from the lungs pushes the reaction above to the left, causing carbonic anhydrase to form CO 2 until all excess protons are removed. Bicarbonate concentration is also further regulated by renal compensation , the process by which the kidneys regulate the concentration of bicarbonate ions by ...
