  2. Solvation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvation

    The surrounded solute particles then move away from the solid solute and out into the solution. Ions are surrounded by a concentric shell of solvent. Solvation is the process of reorganizing solvent and solute molecules into solvation complexes and involves bond formation, hydrogen bonding, and van der Waals forces. Solvation of a solute by ...

  3. Heat of dilution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_of_dilution

    In a dissolution process, a solute is changed from a pure phase—solid, liquid, or gas—to a solution phase. If the pure phase of the solute is a solid or gas (presuming the solvent itself is liquid), the process can be seen in two stages: the phase change into a liquid, and the mixing of liquids. The dissolution process is generally ...

  4. Solvent effects - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent_effects

    For S N 1 reactions the solvent's ability to stabilize the intermediate carbocation is of direct importance to its viability as a suitable solvent. The ability of polar solvents to increase the rate of S N 1 reactions is a result of the polar solvent's solvating the reactant intermediate species, i.e., the carbocation, thereby decreasing the ...

  5. Solvent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent

    A solvent is usually a liquid but can also be a solid, a gas, or a supercritical fluid. Water is a solvent for polar molecules, and the most common solvent used by living things; all the ions and proteins in a cell are dissolved in water within the cell. Major uses of solvents are in paints, paint removers, inks, and dry cleaning. [2]

  6. Enthalpy change of solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enthalpy_change_of_solution

    The integral heat of dissolution is defined as a process of obtaining a certain amount of solution with a final concentration. The enthalpy change in this process, normalized by the mole number of solute, is evaluated as the molar integral heat of dissolution. Mathematically, the molar integral heat of dissolution is denoted as:

  7. Leaching (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaching_(chemistry)

    Leaching is the process of a solute becoming detached or extracted from its carrier substance by way of a solvent. [1]Leaching is a naturally occurring process which scientists have adapted for a variety of applications with a variety of methods.

  8. Solution polymerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solution_polymerization

    Solution polymerization is a method of industrial polymerization.In this procedure, a monomer is dissolved in a non-reactive solvent that contains a catalyst or initiator.. The reaction results in a polymer which is also soluble in the chosen solvent.

  9. Solvent casting and particulate leaching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent_casting_and...

    In solvent casting and particulate leaching (SCPL), a polymer is dissolved in an organic solvent. Particles, mainly salts, with specific dimensions are then added to the solution. The mixture is shaped into its final geometry. For example, it can be cast onto a glass plate to produce a membrane or in a three-dimensional mold to produce a scaffold.
