Download or read book Principles of Redox Reactions written by Malika Ammam and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a teacher of physical chemistry, I noticed that students, even in advanced classes, have difficulties in understanding the basics of redox chemistry. In this Section 3, I attempted to discuss some fundamental principles related to redox processes, by focusing on the species that might lose or gain electrons, determination of the oxidation numbers (or states) of atoms in compounds, and ways of balancing redox reactions. To further clarify the discussed concepts, numerous questions and problems with detailed answers are provided. Most of these questions are formulated by students like you. I believe that this Section 3 would greatly help students with levels varying from high school to advanced university classes.

Download or read book Redox written by Mohammed Awad Ali Khalid and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2017-09-06 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Redox reactions are central to the major element cycling, many cell cycles, many chemisorption and physisorption processes, trace element mobility from rocks and sediments toward wells, aquifers, trace element toxicity toward life forms, and most remediation schemes including water treatments; over the last three decades, the field has attracted a lot of scientists, and a great deal of researches has been done in redox chemistry. This book provides a very broad overview of the state of the art of understanding redox processes, which starts with giving a concise introduction that describes the origin, historical background, and the development of the redox definitions. The book is organized into two sections that include ten chapters and introduces, in Section 1, generalized electron balance theory and its applications in electrolytic redox systems, redox-active molecules and its applications in device memory, fundamentals and applications of flow batteries and their integration into antidirect current, and donor acceptor titrations of displacement and electronic transference. Section 2 introduces redox in biological processes, including roles of reactive oxygen species in respiration, metabolism, and regulations, and redox in physiological processes as redox-sensitive TRP channels TRPA1 and TRPM2. All chapters are written by different authors (with the exception of Chapter 1 [Introduction]). This clearly reflects the broad range of topics that have been covered by experts in the field.

Download or read book Chemical Principles written by Peter Atkins and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2007-08 with total page 1060 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written for calculus-inclusive general chemistry courses, Chemical Principles helps students develop chemical insight by showing the connections between fundamental chemical ideas and their applications. Unlike other texts, it begins with a detailed picture of the atom then builds toward chemistry's frontier, continually demonstrating how to solve problems, think about nature and matter, and visualize chemical concepts as working chemists do. Flexibility in level is crucial, and is largely established through clearly labeling (separating in boxes) the calculus coverage in the text: Instructors have the option of whether to incorporate calculus in the coverage of topics. The multimedia integration of Chemical Principles is more deeply established than any other text for this course. Through the unique eBook, the comprehensive Chemistry Portal, Living Graph icons that connect the text to the Web, and a complete set of animations, students can take full advantage of the wealth of resources available to them to help them learn and gain a deeper understanding.

Download or read book Redox written by J. Schüring and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2000-01-24 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few processes are as important for environmental geochemistry as the interplay between the oxidation and reduction of dissolved and solid species. The knowledge of the redox conditions is most important to predict the geochemical behaviour of a great number of components, the mobilities of which are directly or indirectly controlled by redox processes. The understanding of the chemical mechanisms responsible for the establishment of measurable potentials is the major key for the evaluation and sensitive interpretation of data. This book is suitable for advanced undergraduates as well as for all scientists dealing with the measurement and interpretation of redox conditions in the natural environment.
Download or read book Electronic Interpretation of Organic Chemistry written by F. M. Menger and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-08 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most standard texts in basic organic chemistry require the student to memorize dozens of organic reactions. This is certainly necessary to master the discipline. Unfortunately, most texts do not emphasize why these reactions occur and, just as important, why other reactions that might seem conceivable to the student do not occur. Without this understanding, students tend to forget what they have memorized soon after the course is over. It is the purpose of this book to familiarize the student with the principles governing organic reactivity and to provide a "feel" for organic chemistry that is impossible to secure by memory alone. Digesting the ideas in this book will, we hope, not only explain the common organic reactions but also allow the student to predict the prod ucts and by-products of reactions he has never seen before. Indeed, the creative student might even become capable of designing new reactions as might be required in a complex organic synthesis. In Chapter 1, we cover the basic principles including bonding, nuclear charge, resonance effects, oxidation-reduction, etc. It is a brief discussion, but it nonetheless provides the basis for understanding reaction mechanisms th~t will be treated later on. We highly recommend that this material be reviewed and that the v VI PREFACE problems be worked at the end of the chapter. Answers are given to all problems. In Chapter 2, reaction mechanisms are presented in an increas ing order of difficulty.
