chemical equilibrium
61Determination of equilibrium constants — Equilibrium constants are determined in order to quantify chemical equilibria. When an equilibrium constant is expressed as a concentration quotient, it is implied that the activity quotient is constant. In order for this assumption to be valid… …
62Topic outline of chemical engineering — Chemical engineering is the branch of engineering that deals with the application of physical science (in particular chemistry and physics) and mathematics to the process of converting raw materials or chemicals into more useful or valuable forms …
63Vapor-liquid equilibrium — Vapor liquid equilibrium, abbreviated as VLE by some, is a condition where a liquid and its vapor (gas phase) are in equilibrium with each other, a condition or state where the rate of evaporation (liquid changing to vapor) equals the rate of… …
64On the Equilibrium of Heterogeneous Substances — In the history of thermodynamics, On the Equilibrium of Heterogeneous Substances is a 300 page paper written by American mathematical engineer Willard Gibbs. It is one of the founding papers in thermodynamics, along with German physicist Hermann… …
65Outline of chemical engineering — See also: Index of chemical engineering articles The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to chemical engineering: Chemical engineering – deals with the application of physical science (e.g., chemistry and physics),… …
66Stable equilibrium — Stable Sta ble (st[=a] b l), a. [OF. estable, F. stable, fr. L. stabilis, fr. stare to stand. See {Stand}, v. i. and cf. {Establish}.] 1. Firmly established; not easily moved, shaken, or overthrown; fixed; as, a stable government. [1913 Webster]… …
67Donnan equilibrium — Don·nan equilibrium dän ən n the ionic equilibrium reached in a solution of an electrolyte whose ions are diffusible through a semipermeable membrane but are distributed unequally on the two sides of the membrane because of the presence of a… …

69Primate Equilibrium Platform — A Primate Equilibrium Platform (PEP) is a device used to train chimpanzees and other primates in maneuvers similar to those of a flight simulator. The chimpanzees are conditioned, with a series of electric shocks, to keep the rolling platform… …
70Dielectric relaxation as a chemical rate process — Dielectric relaxation was interpreted as a chemical rate process by Walter Kauzmann. According to Kauzmann, relaxation rates may be arranged in two or more distinct groups: Depending on how rapidly they change with temperature. In one group, we… …
