  2. Nitrogen trichloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen_trichloride

    Nitrogen trichloride, also known as trichloramine, is the chemical compound with the formula NCl 3.This yellow, oily, and explosive liquid is most commonly encountered as a product of chemical reactions between ammonia-derivatives and chlorine (for example, in swimming pools).

  3. Inorganic nonaqueous solvent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inorganic_nonaqueous_solvent

    An inorganic nonaqueous solvent is a solvent other than water, that is not an organic compound. These solvents are used in chemical research and industry for reactions that cannot occur in aqueous solutions or require a special environment. Inorganic nonaqueous solvents can be classified into two groups, protic solvents and aprotic solvents.

  4. Electrolyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolyte

    An electrolyte is a substance that conducts electricity through the movement of ions, but not through the movement of electrons. [1] [2] [3] This includes most soluble salts, acids, and bases, dissolved in a polar solvent like water. Upon dissolving, the substance separates into cations and anions, which disperse uniformly throughout the ...

  5. Inorganic ions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inorganic_ions

    In blood approximately 85% of carbon dioxide, is converted into aqueous carbonate ions (an acidic solution), allowing a greater rate of transportation. Co 2+ - cobalt ions are present in the human body in amounts from 1 to 2 mg. [ 4 ] Cobalt is observed in the heart, liver, kidney, and spleen, and considerably smaller quantities in the pancreas ...

  6. Non-Newtonian fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-Newtonian_fluid

    Another example of non-Newtonian fluid flow is chilled caramel ice cream topping (so long as it incorporates hydrocolloids such as carrageenan and gellan gum). The sudden application of force —by stabbing the surface with a finger, for example, or rapidly inverting the container holding it—causes the fluid to behave like a solid rather than ...

  7. Supporting electrolyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supporting_electrolyte

    A supporting electrolyte, in electrochemistry, according to an IUPAC definition, [1] is an electrolyte containing chemical species that are not electroactive (within the range of potentials used) and which has an ionic strength and conductivity much larger than those due to the electroactive species added to the electrolyte.

  8. Inorganic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inorganic_compound

    An inorganic compound is typically a chemical compound that lacks carbon–hydrogen bondsā  ‍ — ‍ that is, a compound that is not an organic compound. [1] [2] The study of inorganic compounds is a subfield of chemistry known as inorganic chemistry.

  9. Chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloride

    It is an essential electrolyte located in all body fluids responsible for maintaining acid/base balance, transmitting nerve impulses and regulating liquid flow in and out of cells. Other examples of ionic chlorides include potassium chloride (KCl), calcium chloride (CaCl 2), and ammonium chloride (NH 4 Cl).
