  2. Electrochemical potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochemical_potential

    It is common in electrochemistry and solid-state physics to discuss both the chemical potential and the electrochemical potential of the electrons.However, in the two fields, the definitions of these two terms are sometimes swapped.

  3. Physical coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_coefficient

    Partition coefficient (K D) - The ratio of concentrations of a compound in two phases of a mixture of two immiscible solvents at equilibrium. Hall coefficient (electrical physics) - Relates a magnetic field applied to an element to the voltage created, the amount of current and the element thickness. It is a characteristic of the material from ...

  4. Chemical potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_potential

    In recent years, [when?] thermal physics has applied the definition of chemical potential to systems in particle physics and its associated processes. For example, in a quark–gluon plasma or other QCD matter , at every point in space there is a chemical potential for photons , a chemical potential for electrons, a chemical potential for ...

  5. Charge number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_number

    This is a property of specific subatomic atoms. These elements define the electromagnetic contact between the two elements. A chemical charge can be found by using the periodic table. An element's placement on the periodic table indicates whether its chemical charge is negative or positive. Looking at the table, one can see that the positive ...

  6. Electrochemical equivalent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochemical_equivalent

    The electrochemical equivalent of a substance is the mass of the substance deposited to one of the electrodes when a current of 1 ampere is passed for 1 second, i.e. a quantity of electricity of one coulomb is passed. The formula for finding electrochemical equivalent is as follows: = /

  7. Electron density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_density

    Electron density or electronic density is the measure of the probability of an electron being present at an infinitesimal element of space surrounding any given point. It is a scalar quantity depending upon three spatial variables and is typically denoted as either ρ ( r ) {\displaystyle \rho ({\textbf {r}})} or n ( r ) {\displaystyle n ...

  8. Standard state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_state

    The standard state of a material (pure substance, mixture or solution) is a reference point used to calculate its properties under different conditions.A degree sign (°) or a superscript Plimsoll symbol (⦵) is used to designate a thermodynamic quantity in the standard state, such as change in enthalpy (ΔH°), change in entropy (ΔS°), or change in Gibbs free energy (ΔG°).

  9. Mass-to-charge ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass-to-charge_ratio

    When charged particles move in electric and magnetic fields the following two laws apply: Lorentz force law: = (+),; Newton's second law of motion: = =; where F is the force applied to the ion, m is the mass of the particle, a is the acceleration, Q is the electric charge, E is the electric field, and v × B is the cross product of the ion's velocity and the magnetic flux density.
