  2. Bromine water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromine_water

    Bromine water is an oxidizing, intense brown mixture containing diatomic bromine (Br 2) dissolved in water (H 2 O). [1] It is often used as a reactive in chemical assays of recognition for substances which react with bromine in an aqueous environment with the halogenation mechanism, mainly unsaturated carbon compounds (carbon compounds with 1 ...

  3. Condensation reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensation_reaction

    Condensation reaction. In organic chemistry, a condensation reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which two molecules are combined to form a single molecule, usually with the loss of a small molecule such as water. [1] If water is lost, the reaction is also known as a dehydration synthesis. However other molecules can also be lost, such as ...

  4. Denaturation (biochemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denaturation_(biochemistry)

    Agents such as hydrogen peroxide, elemental chlorine, hypochlorous acid (chlorine water), bromine, bromine water, iodine, nitric and oxidising acids, and ozone react with sensitive moieties such as sulfide/thiol, activated aromatic rings (phenylalanine) in effect damage the protein and render it useless.

  5. Hammett equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammett_equation

    Hammett equation. In organic chemistry, the Hammett equation describes a linear free-energy relationship relating reaction rates and equilibrium constants for many reactions involving benzoic acid derivatives with meta- and para- substituents to each other with just two parameters: a substituent constant and a reaction constant. [1][2] This ...

  6. Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brønsted–Lowry_acid...

    The hydrogen ion, or hydronium ion, is a Brønsted–Lowry acid when dissolved in H 2 O and the hydroxide ion is a base because of the autoionization of water reaction An analogous reaction occurs in liquid ammonia

  7. Acetic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetic_acid

    Vinegar is at least 4% acetic acid by volume, making acetic acid the main component of vinegar apart from water. It has been used, as a component of vinegar, throughout history from at least the third century BC. Acetic acid is also known as acetyl hydroxide (AcOH). Acetic acid is the second simplest carboxylic acid (after formic acid).

  8. Phenol red - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenol_red

    High levels of bromine can convert phenol red to bromophenol red (dibromophenolsulfonephthalein, whose lowered p Ka results in an indicator with a range shifted in the acidic direction – water at pH 6.8 will appear to test at 7.5).

  9. Solvent effects - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent_effects

    Solvent effects. In chemistry, solvent effects are the influence of a solvent on chemical reactivity or molecular associations. Solvents can have an effect on solubility, stability and reaction rates and choosing the appropriate solvent allows for thermodynamic and kinetic control over a chemical reaction. A solute dissolves in a solvent when ...
