  2. Thermal ionization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_ionization

    It has a simple design, is less expensive than other mass spectrometers, and produces stable ion emissions. It requires a stable power supply, and is suitable for species with a low ionization energy, such as strontium and lead. The disadvantages of this method stem from the maximum temperature achieved in thermal ionization.

  3. Chemical stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_stability

    In chemistry, chemical stability is the thermodynamic stability of a chemical system, in particular a chemical compound or a polymer. [1]Chemical stability may also refer to the shelf-life of a particular chemical compound; that is the duration of time before it begins to degrade in response to environmental factors.

  4. Molten salt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molten_salt

    Molten FLiBe (2LiF·BeF 2). Molten salt is salt which is solid at standard temperature and pressure but liquified due to elevated temperature. A salt that is liquid even at standard temperature and pressure is usually called a room-temperature ionic liquid, and molten salts are technically a class of ionic liquids.

  5. Thermostability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostability

    Crystal structure of β-glucosidase from Thermotoga neapolitana (PDB: 5IDI).Thermostable protein, active at 80°C and with unfolding temperature of 101°C. [1]In materials science and molecular biology, thermostability is the ability of a substance to resist irreversible change in its chemical or physical structure, often by resisting decomposition or polymerization, at a high relative ...

  6. Ionic liquid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionic_liquid

    Low-temperature ionic liquids (below 130 K) have been proposed as the fluid base for an extremely large diameter spinning liquid-mirror telescope to be based on the Moon. [ 25 ] Water is a common impurity in ionic liquids, as it can be absorbed from the atmosphere and influences the transport properties of RTILs, even at relatively low ...

  7. Stability constants of complexes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stability_constants_of...

    The chelate effect increases as the number of chelate rings increases. For example, the complex [Ni(dien) 2)] 2+ is more stable than the complex [Ni(en) 3)] 2+; both complexes are octahedral with six nitrogen atoms around the nickel ion, but dien (diethylenetriamine, 1,4,7-triazaheptane) is a tridentate ligand and en is bidentate. The number of ...

  8. Hydrogen ion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_ion

    By definition, an acid is an ion or molecule that can donate a proton, and when introduced to a solution it will react with water molecules (H 2 O) to form a hydronium ion (H 3 O +), a conjugate acid of water. [4] For simplistic reasoning, the hydrogen ion (H +) is often used to abbreviate the hydronium ion.

  9. Gas-phase ion chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas-phase_ion_chemistry

    Gas phase ion chemistry is a field of science encompassed within both chemistry and physics. It is the science that studies ions and molecules in the gas phase, most often enabled by some form of mass spectrometry .
