  2. Silicon monoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_monoxide

    In 1890, the German chemist Clemens Winkler (the discoverer of germanium) was the first to attempt to synthesize SiO by heating silicon dioxide with silicon in a combustion furnace. [7] SiO 2 + Si ⇌ 2 SiO. However, Winkler was not able to produce the monoxide since the temperature of the mixture was only around 1000 °C.

    This is a list of the various reported boiling points for the elements, with recommended values to be used elsewhere on Wikipedia. ... 14 Si silicon; use: 3538 K ...

  4. Lead(II) oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead(II)_oxide

    There are two principal methods to make lead monoxide both of which resemble combustion of the lead at high temperature: [6] Barton pot method. The refined molten lead droplets are oxidized in a vessel under a forced air flow which carries them out to the separation system (e.g. cyclonic separators) for further processing.

  5. Silicon dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_dioxide

    The dimeric silicon dioxide, (SiO 2) 2 has been obtained by reacting O 2 with matrix isolated dimeric silicon monoxide, (Si 2 O 2). In dimeric silicon dioxide there are two oxygen atoms bridging between the silicon atoms with an Si–O–Si angle of 94° and bond length of 164.6 pm and the terminal Si–O bond length is 150.2 pm.

  6. Silicon compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_compounds

    Silicon compounds are compounds containing the element silicon (Si). As a carbon group element, silicon often forms compounds in the +4 oxidation state, though many unusual compounds have been discovered that differ from expectations based on its valence electrons, including the silicides and some silanes. Metal silicides, silicon halides, and ...

  7. Boiling point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiling_point

    Water boiling at 99.3 °C (210.8 °F) at 215 m (705 ft) elevation. The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the pressure surrounding the liquid [1] [2] and the liquid changes into a vapor. The boiling point of a liquid varies depending upon the surrounding environmental pressure.

  8. Autoignition temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autoignition_temperature

    The autoignition temperature or self-ignition temperature, often called spontaneous ignition temperature or minimum ignition temperature (or shortly ignition temperature) and formerly also known as kindling point, of a substance is the lowest temperature at which it spontaneously ignites in a normal atmosphere without an external source of ignition, such as a flame or spark. [1]

  9. Fluid catalytic cracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_catalytic_cracking

    The feedstock to the FCC conversion process usually is heavy gas oil (HGO), which is that portion of the petroleum (crude oil) that has an initial boiling-point temperature of 340 °C (644 °F) or higher, at atmospheric pressure, and that has an average molecular weight that ranges from about 200 to 600 or higher; heavy gas oil also is known as ...
