The viscosity of aqueous solutions of alkali and tetraalkylammonium halides at 25°C

The viscosities of most alkali and tetraalkylammonium halides have been measured in water at 25°C. The relative viscosities can be fitted, up to 1M, with the relation _r =1+A c^1/2+B c+D ². TheA term depends on long-range coulombic forces, andB is a function of the size and hydration of the solute. When combined with partial-molal-volume data, the difference B –0.0025V° is mostly a measure of the solute-solvent interactions. IonicB are obtained if the tetraethylammonium ion is assumed to obey Einstein's law. TheD parameter depends on higher terms of the long-range coulombic forces, on higher terms of the hydrodynamic effect, and on structural solute-solute interactions. As such, it cannot be interpreted unambiguously.     

Kinetics of oxidation of acrolein on a vanadium-molybdenum oxide catalyst

A kinetic study has shown that, in the range of low conversions, the reaction rate depends only on the partial pressure of oxygen. Comparison of the oxidation of acrolein and I-deuteroacrolein suggests that the splitting of the H–CO bond is not rate-limiting.

IR-spectroscopic studies of the interaction of pyridine bases with vanadium and molybdenum oxides supported on magnesia

As shown by IR-spectroscopic studies, pyridine bases interacting with V₂O₅ and MoO₃ supported on MgO form hydrogen bonds with surface hydroxyls and coordinate bonds with V and Mo ions. The interaction of 2,6-dimethylpyridine adsorbed on the surface with oxygen leads to the formation of 6-methylpyridine-2-carboxaldehyde, whose formyl group interacts with surface hydroxyls.

The predictive accuracy for estimating infinite dilution activity coefficients by γ∞-based UNIFAC

The predictive accuracy for estimating infinite dilution activity coefficients by a modification of the UNIFAC method wherein the group interaction parameters were based on only data (referred to as -based UNIFAC) has been studied. Estimates and measured values were compared for six prototypical solutes in a series of homologous n-alkanes, l-alcohols and alkanenitrile solvents. Despite the fact that the interaction parameters were derived using only data, this approach still gave serious errors due to several inherent problems in the original UNIFAC model. Its performance is sometimes even poorer than that of the original UNIFAC method. For example for nitromethane in alcohols and p-dioxane in nitriles values predicted by the -based UNIFAC are essentially zero. The large errors for these systems are most likely due to inaccurate interaction parameters in the -based UNIFAC method.     

Thermogravimetric study of the C + SiO2 reaction

The kinetics of the reaction of one-to-one molar mixtures of crystalline silica and carbon powder were studied using thermogravimetric analysis. The resulting kinetic data was evaluated using simple kinetic and mass transport models. A two-stage reaction mechanism consisting of three stoichiometric reactions can adequately be used to describe the global reaction phenomena. Both the first and second stages of reaction were found to be influenced by diffusion mass transfer within the reacting bed of solids.

Zusammenfassung Mittels Thermogravimetrie wurde die Reaktionskinetik der Reaktion von kristallinem Siliziumdioxid und Kohlenstoffpulver im Molverhältnis 11 untersucht. Die kinetischen Angaben wurden mittels einfachen kinetischen und Stofftransportmodellen ausgewertet. Zu einer adäquaten Beschreibung der gesamten Reaktionserscheinung kann ein Zweischrittereaktionsmechanismus bestehend aus drei stöchiometrischen Reaktionen benutzt werden. Sowohl der erste als auch der zweite Reaktionsschritt wird durch diffusiven Stofftransport innerhalb des Reaktionsbettes beeinflußt.

Study of Cr(VI)-2-oximinodimedone dithiosemicarbazone reaction and simultaneous determination of Cr(VI) and Fe(III)

Summary 2-Oximinodimedone dithiosemicarbazone reacts with Cr(VI) in strongly acid medium. The orange colour obtained has been used to propose a spectrophotometric method of Cr(VI) determination in the concentration range 0.40–9.5g ml^–1 (=5600 mole^–1-cm^–1 at 485 nm). The stoichiometry of the reaction is 32 (reagentCr(VI)) which is in accordance with the oxidation reaction of the reagent by Cr(VI). The method has been applied to the determination of Cr(VI) and Fe(III) in ceramic materials.

Tracing of peroxy radicals in hexane cool flames

Stabilized hexane-air cool flames in a separately heated two-section reactor have been studied at T=480–770 K and P=30–63 kPa. ESR spectra of peroxy radicals were analyzed by the radical freezing technique and sonde sampling. Under these conditions high radical concentrations (>10¹⁴ cm^–3) are observed. With increasing pressure and temperature, the fraction of HO₂ radicals in the overall amount of radicals grows.

Kinetics and mechanism of the permanganate oxidation of trans-crotonic acid

The kinetics and intermediates of the permanganate oxidation of trans-crotonic acid have been investigated in the pH range of 0.5–5.0 using the stoppedflow technique. The formation of manganese(III) as a short-lived intermediate has been established. The reaction is first order with respect to both MnO ₄ ^– and crotonic acid (crotonate). The resolved rate constants at 25°C are 730 and 410 M^–1 sec^–1 for the acid and the anion, respectively. The reaction mechanism is discussed.

Two-electron atomic wave functions which satisfy proportionality relations between one-and two-electron moments

Based on momentum- and position-space analyses of the moment operators for two-electron atoms, it is shown that there exists a family of two-electron wave functions which satisfy a proportionality relation, r/ ₁ ^v /r ₁₂ ^v =p/ ₁ ^v /p ₁₂ ^v =2^–v/2, between the one and two-electron moments in position and momentum spaces, where v is an arbitrary number for which the moments are well-defined.     

Strong H2 chemisorption on Al2O3 or SiO2 supported group VIII metals

Following hydrogen treatments at high temperature a decrease in hydrogen chemisorption at room temperature is observed in almost all group VIII elements supported on SiO₂ or Al₂O₃. The effect is attributed to self inhibition by strongly chemisorbed hydrogen on the metals.

Investigation of surface phenomena on solid catalysts by thermogravimetry

Thermogravimetry was applied to the investigation of the phenomena of adsorption, chemisorption, desorption and surface reactions on solid catalysts. The measurements were carried out with 13 NaX and NaY type zeolites and with silica gels treated with sodium hydroxide, in the presence of cumene and methanol. On the basis of the quantitative results it is possible to give an interpretation of surface phenomena and to establish the existence of various active centres on the surface of the catalysts.

Differential scanning calorimetry of chloroquine sulphate exposed to sun,heat and ultraviolet radiation

Chloroquine sulphate, like the phosphate, is an antimalarial formulation widely used in the tropics. The stability of such formulations is therefore of interest in the combat against malaria. A DSC study has been made of the effects of exposure to the sun, heat and UV radiation on the stability of chloroquine sulphate, similarly as performed earlier for chloroquine phosphate. When freshly recrystallized from a water-acetone mixture, chloroquine sulphate exhibits two endothermic peaks, at 169.4° and 204.7°, for the expulsion of crystal water (one molecule) and for the melting process, respectively. The exposure of chloroquine sulphate to the sun, heat and UV radiation leads to splitting of the peak for melting.

Zusammenfassung Chloroquine-Sulfat ist ebenso wie das entsprechende Phosphatderivat ein in den Tropen weitverbreitet angewandtes Antimalaria-Präparat. Die Stabilität dieses Präparates hat damit Bedeutung für die Malariabekämpfung. Die vorliegende Arbeit ist eine Erweiterung einer Untersuchung über den Effekt der Einwirkung.von Sonne, Hitze und UV-Strahlen auf die Stabilität von Chloroquine-Phosphat auf Chloroquine-Sulfat. Aus Wasser-Aceton-Mischungen frisch kristallisiertes Chloroquine-Sulfat zeigt zwei endotherme Peaks bei 169,4 und 204,7 °C, die durch Abgabe von Kristallwasser (ein Molekül) bzw. durch den Schmelzvorgang bedingt sind. Wird Chloroquine-Sulfat der Sonne, Wärme oder UV-Licht ausgesetzt, so wird der dem Schmelzvorgang zuzuscheibende Peak aufgespalten.
