  2. Reaction quotient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_quotient

    In equilibrium, the reaction quotient is constant over time and is equal to the equilibrium constant. A general chemical reaction in which α moles of a reactant A and β moles of a reactant B react to give ρ moles of a product R and σ moles of a product S can be written as. The reaction is written as an equilibrium even though, in many cases ...

  3. Q value (nuclear science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_value_(nuclear_science)

    value (nuclear science) In nuclear physics and chemistry, the Q value for a nuclear reaction is the amount of energy absorbed or released during the reaction. The value relates to the enthalpy of a chemical reaction or the energy of radioactive decay products. It can be determined from the masses of reactants and products.

    m = mass of each molecule (all molecules are identical in kinetic theory), γ (p) = Lorentz factor as function of momentum (see below) Ratio of thermal to rest mass-energy of each molecule: θ = k B T / m c 2 {\displaystyle \theta =k_ {\text {B}}T/mc^ {2}} K2 is the modified Bessel function of the second kind.

  5. Chemical equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_equation

    A chemical equation is the symbolic representation of a chemical reaction in the form of symbols and chemical formulas.The reactant entities are given on the left-hand side and the product entities are on the right-hand side with a plus sign between the entities in both the reactants and the products, and an arrow that points towards the products to show the direction of the reaction.

  6. Faraday's laws of electrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_laws_of_electrolysis

    For Faraday's first law, M, F, v are constants; thus, the larger the value of Q, the larger m will be. For Faraday's second law, Q, F, v are constants; thus, the larger the value of (equivalent weight), the larger m will be. In the simple case of constant- current electrolysis, Q = It, leading to. and then to. where: t is the total time the ...

  7. Chemical kinetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_kinetics

    Chemical kinetics. Chemical kinetics, also known as reaction kinetics, is the branch of physical chemistry that is concerned with understanding the rates of chemical reactions. It is different from chemical thermodynamics, which deals with the direction in which a reaction occurs but in itself tells nothing about its rate.

  8. Fusion energy gain factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusion_energy_gain_factor

    A fusion energy gain factor, usually expressed with the symbol Q, is the ratio of fusion power produced in a nuclear fusion reactor to the power required to maintain the plasma in steady state. The condition of Q = 1, when the power being released by the fusion reactions is equal to the required heating power, is referred to as breakeven, or in ...

  9. Equilibrium constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equilibrium_constant

    Equilibrium constant. The equilibrium constant of a chemical reaction is the value of its reaction quotient at chemical equilibrium, a state approached by a dynamic chemical system after sufficient time has elapsed at which its composition has no measurable tendency towards further change. For a given set of reaction conditions, the equilibrium ...
