  2. Thermodynamic activity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_activity

    The relative activity of a species i, denoted a i, is defined [4] [5] as: = where μ i is the (molar) chemical potential of the species i under the conditions of interest, μ o i is the (molar) chemical potential of that species under some defined set of standard conditions, R is the gas constant, T is the thermodynamic temperature and e is the exponential constant.

  3. Molar heat capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_heat_capacity

    The "grand calorie" (also "kilocalorie", "kilogram-calorie", or "food calorie"; "kcal" or "Cal") is 1000 small calories, that is, 4184 J, exactly. When heat is measured in these units, the unit of specific heat is usually 1 cal/(°C⋅mol) ("small calorie") = 4.184 J⋅K −1 ⋅mol −1 1 kcal/(°C⋅mol) ("large calorie") = 4184 J⋅K −1 ...

  4. Molar concentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_concentration

    In the International System of Units (SI), the coherent unit for molar concentration is mol/m 3. However, most chemical literature traditionally uses mol/dm 3, which is the same as mol/L. This traditional unit is often called a molar and denoted by the letter M, for example: 1 mol/m 3 = 10 −3 mol/dm 3 = 10 −3 mol/L = 10 −3 M = 1 mM = 1 ...

  5. Molality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molality

    In chemistry, molality is a measure of the amount of solute in a solution relative to a given mass of solvent. This contrasts with the definition of molarity which is based on a given volume of solution. A commonly used unit for molality is the moles per kilogram (mol/kg). A solution of concentration 1 mol/kg is also sometimes denoted as 1 molal.

  7. Activity coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activity_coefficient

    In thermodynamics, an activity coefficient is a factor used to account for deviation of a mixture of chemical substances from ideal behaviour. [1] In an ideal mixture, the microscopic interactions between each pair of chemical species are the same (or macroscopically equivalent, the enthalpy change of solution and volume variation in mixing is zero) and, as a result, properties of the mixtures ...

  8. Concentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentration

    The SI unit for molality is mol/kg. Mole fraction. The mole fraction is defined as the amount of a constituent (in moles) divided by the total amount of all ...

  9. Colligative properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colligative_properties

    Here K f is the cryoscopic constant (equal to 1.86 °C kg/mol for the freezing point of water), i is the van 't Hoff factor, and m the molality (in mol/kg). This predicts the melting of ice by road salt. In the liquid solution, the solvent is diluted by the addition of a solute, so that fewer molecules are available to freeze.
