  2. Potassium sulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_sulfide

    Powdered potassium sulfide anhydrous. Potassium sulfide is an inorganic compound with the formula K 2 S.The colourless solid is rarely encountered, because it reacts readily with water, a reaction that affords potassium hydrosulfide (KSH) and potassium hydroxide (KOH).

  3. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    When comparing a polar and nonpolar molecule with similar molar masses, the polar molecule in general has a higher boiling point, because the dipole–dipole interaction between polar molecules results in stronger intermolecular attractions. One common form of polar interaction is the hydrogen bond, which is also

  4. Potassium sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_sulfate

    Potassium sulfate (K 2 SO 4) has been known since early in the 14th century.It was studied by Glauber, Boyle, and Tachenius.In the 17th century, it was named arcanuni or sal duplicatum, as it was a combination of an acid salt with an alkaline salt.

  5. Intermolecular force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermolecular_force

    The polar water molecules surround themselves around ions in water and the energy released during the process is known as hydration enthalpy. The interaction has its immense importance in justifying the stability of various ions (like Cu 2+) in water. An ion–induced dipole force consists of an ion and a non-polar molecule interacting.

  6. Diatomic molecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diatomic_molecule

    The bond in a homonuclear diatomic molecule is non-polar. A periodic table showing the elements that exist as homonuclear diatomic molecules under typical laboratory conditions.

  7. Hydrophobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrophobe

    Hydrophobic molecules tend to be nonpolar and, thus, prefer other neutral molecules and nonpolar solvents. Because water molecules are polar, hydrophobes do not dissolve well among them. Hydrophobic molecules in water often cluster together, forming micelles. Water on hydrophobic surfaces will exhibit a high contact angle.

  8. Reversed-phase chromatography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversed-phase_chromatography

    Reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RP-LC) is a mode of liquid chromatography in which non-polar stationary phase and polar mobile phases are used for the separation of organic compounds. [1] [2] [3] The vast majority of separations and analyses using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in recent years are done using the reversed ...

  9. Solvent effects - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent_effects

    This arises from the fact that polar solvents stabilize the formation of the carbocation intermediate to a greater extent than the non-polar-solvent conditions. This is apparent in the ΔE a, ΔΔG ‡ activation. On the right is an S N 2 reaction coordinate diagram. Note the decreased ΔG ‡ activation for the non-polar-solvent reaction ...
