  2. Water splitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_splitting

    Electrolysis of water is the decomposition of water (H 2 O) into oxygen (O 2) and hydrogen (H 2): [2] Water electrolysis ship Hydrogen Challenger. Production of hydrogen from water is energy intensive. Usually, the electricity consumed is more valuable than the hydrogen produced, so this method has not been widely used.

  3. Thermochemical cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermochemical_cycle

    A low temperature (T°), thermal agitation allow mostly the water molecules to be excited as hydrogen and oxygen levels required higher thermal agitation to be significantly populated (on the arbitrary diagram, 3 levels can be populated for water vs 1 for the oxygen/hydrogen subsystem), At high temperature (T), thermal agitation is sufficient ...

  4. Hydrogen cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_cycle

    The hydrogen cycle consists of hydrogen exchanges between biotic (living) and abiotic (non-living) sources and sinks of hydrogen-containing compounds. Hydrogen (H) is the most abundant element in the universe. [1] On Earth, common H-containing inorganic molecules include water (H 2 O), hydrogen gas (H 2), hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S), and ammonia ...

  5. Hemodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemodynamics

    Blood is a complex liquid. Blood is composed of plasma and formed elements.The plasma contains 91.5% water, 7% proteins and 1.5% other solutes. The formed elements are platelets, white blood cells, and red blood cells.

  6. Bicarbonate buffer system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicarbonate_buffer_system

    As calculated by the Henderson–Hasselbalch equation, in order to maintain a normal pH of 7.4 in the blood (whereby the pK a of carbonic acid is 6.1 at physiological temperature), a 20:1 ratio of bicarbonate to carbonic acid must constantly be maintained; this homeostasis is mainly mediated by pH sensors in the medulla oblongata of the brain ...

  7. Marine biogeochemical cycles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_biogeochemical_cycles

    Water can be broken down into its constituent hydrogen and oxygen by metabolic or abiotic processes, and later recombined to become water again. While the water cycle is itself a biogeochemical cycle, flow of water over and beneath the Earth is a key component of the cycling of other biogeochemicals. [8]

  8. Chemiosmosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemiosmosis

    The bacterial cell wall is omitted, gram-positive bacterial cells do not have outer membrane. [6] The complete breakdown of glucose releasing its energy is called cellular respiration. The last steps of this process occur in mitochondria. The reduced molecules NADH and FADH 2 are generated by the Krebs cycle, glycolysis, and pyruvate processing.

  9. Solid hydrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_hydrogen

    Phase I occurs at low temperatures and pressures, and consists of a hexagonal close-packed array of freely rotating H 2 molecules. Upon increasing the pressure at low temperature, a transition to Phase II occurs at up to 110 GPa. [3] Phase II is a broken-symmetry structure in which the H 2 molecules are no longer able to rotate freely. [4]
