  2. Sulfur dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur_dioxide

    Sulfur dioxide is the product of the burning of sulfur or of burning materials that contain sulfur: S8 + 8 O2 → 8 SO2, ΔH = −297 kJ/mol. To aid combustion, liquified sulfur (140–150 °C (284–302 °F) is sprayed through an atomizing nozzle to generate fine drops of sulfur with a large surface area.

  3. Residence time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residence_time

    Residence time. The residence time of a fluid parcel is the total time that the parcel has spent inside a control volume (e.g.: a chemical reactor, a lake, a human body). The residence time of a set of parcels is quantified in terms of the frequency distribution of the residence time in the set, which is known as residence time distribution ...

  4. Partial pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_pressure

    It is possible to work out the equilibrium constant for a chemical reaction involving a mixture of gases given the partial pressure of each gas and the overall reaction formula. For a reversible reaction involving gas reactants and gas products, such as: the equilibrium constant of the reaction would be:

  5. Sulfur cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur_cycle

    The important sulfur cycle is a biogeochemical cycle in which the sulfur moves between rocks, waterways and living systems. It is important in geology as it affects many minerals and in life because sulfur is an essential element (CHNOPS), being a constituent of many proteins and cofactors, and sulfur compounds can be used as oxidants or reductants in microbial respiration. [1] The global ...

  6. Standard enthalpy of formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_enthalpy_of_formation

    All elements in their reference states (oxygen gas, solid carbon in the form of graphite, etc.) have a standard enthalpy of formation of zero, as there is no change involved in their formation. The formation reaction is a constant pressure and constant temperature process.

  7. Eudiometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eudiometer

    When the gas created by the chemical reaction is released, it should rise into the eudiometer so that the experimenter may accurately read the volume of the gas produced at any given time. Normally a person would read the volume when the reaction is completed.

  8. Bosch-Meiser process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosch-Meiser_process

    Instead of feeding carbon dioxide gas directly to the urea synthesis reactor with the ammonia, as in the conventional process, the stripping process first routes the carbon dioxide through the stripper. The stripper is a carbamate decomposer that provides a large amount of gas-liquid contact.

  9. Sulfur compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur_compounds

    Sulfur polycations, S 82+, S 42+ and S 162+ are produced when sulfur is reacted with oxidising agents in a strongly acidic solution. [1] The colored solutions produced by dissolving sulfur in oleum were first reported as early as 1804 by C.F. Bucholz, but the cause of the color and the structure of the polycations involved was only determined in the late 1960s. S 82+ is deep blue, S 42+ is ...
