This property is employed to develop a new simple method to determine formation constants of Ce 3+ complex system. Fluorescence intensity is used to determine concentration of Ce 3+ (aq) in complex solution, as it is proportional to the concentration of Ce 3+ (aq). In this paper, two examples, Ce 3+ malonic acid and Ce 3+ AMP(adenosine 5′ monophosphate), of fluorescence titration were made and association constants and association numbers of the two systems were deduced for the titration with Scatchard plot. The results are similar to those obtained by others. It is suggested that this Ce 3+ method is a promising fluorescence probe, as it is not only simple but also superior to other lanthanide fluorescence probe in being able to study a large amount of organic ligands and biomolecules.展开更多

The formation of metal cation complexes between o-phenylenediamine with metal ions, Ni2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Pb2+ and Cr3+ were studied in the dimethylformamide/water(DMF/H2O), acetonitrile/water(AN/H2O) and ethanol/water(Et...The formation of metal cation complexes between o-phenylenediamine with metal ions, Ni2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Pb2+ and Cr3+ were studied in the dimethylformamide/water(DMF/H2O), acetonitrile/water(AN/H2O) and ethanol/water(EtOH/H2O) binary systems using square wave polarography (SWP) technique. The stoichiometry and stability of the complexes were determined by monitoring the shifts in half-waves or peak potentials of the polarographic waves of metal ions against the ligand concentration. In the most cases, the formation constants of complexes decreased with increasing amounts of H2O, DMF and EtOH in AN/H2O, DMF/H2O and EtOH/H2O binary systems, respectively. The stoichiometry of the complexes was found 1:1. The results obtained show that there is an inverse relationship between the formation constant of the complexes and the donor number of the solvents based on the Gatmann donocity scale. Also, the stability constants show a high sensitivity to the composition of the mixed solvent systems. In most of the systems investigated, Cr3+ cation forms a more stable complex with o-phenylenediamine than other four cations and the order of selectivity of this ligand for cations in pure water is:Cr3+>>Cu2+>Ni2+>Zn2+>Pb2+.展开更多

The collision complex in ion-pair formation process was found and optimized. These results show that the crossed molecule beam (CMB) experimental phenomenon is verified and the detailed geometry is given for the first time. A mechanism for ion-pair formation was proposed in detail. The position where the collision complex occurs affects the reaction path. Specifically, the process has threshold when the collision complex appeared before the crossing point between the covalent and ionic state potential energy surfaces. On the contrary, the process has no threshold after the crossing point. Theoretically, the title system belongs to the former case.展开更多

They may have multiple counter effects, one of which is their interaction to bioactive metals. Iron is most common bio essential metal and is reported to interact with antihypertensive drug methyldopa. In the present study, above said complex is analyzed by UV-Visible spectrophotometry. Formation constant of the complex is calculated by using mole ratio method and single point statistical method which is in the range of 1010, values are also calculated which are independent of pH like formation constant. Absorbance maxima were found to be dependent on pH. At lower pH complex shows two broad bands centered at 430 nm and 730 nm. With the rise in pH later peak shifts toward lower wavelength, so 615 nm is selected for further studies. Molar extinction coefficient of the complex is explored by serial dilution method. At all wavelengths it increases with increase in pH. Mole ratio and slope ratio methods are used for exploring stoichiometry. Metal to ligand combining ratio in the complex is 1:2 at pH 4.0 and pH 4.5 while 1:3 at pH 5.0 and pH 5.5.展开更多

The method is based on the linearization of the formation function ? = f(pH) or ? = f(pL) data. A theoretical slope of unity should be obtained thus proving the correctness of the assumed equilibria. An additional advantage of the bilogarithmic method proposed is that it provides a closed scale representation of Y and X unlike other plots. This paper forms part of an investigation into the uses of bilogarithmic methods and hyperbolic functions in parameter estimation. Methods based on the application of spectrophotometric measurements have been the subject of recent studies.展开更多

IR spectra of the complexes show that the RE^(3+) coordinated with six sulfur atoms of three PDC^- and two nitrogen atoms of o-phen·H_2O. It was assumed that the coordination number of RE^(3+) is eight. The constant-volume combustion energies of the complexes, Δ_cU, were determined as (-16937 88±9 79 ), (-17588 79±8 62 ), ((-17747 14±)8 25 ) and (-17840 37±8 87 ) kJ·mol^(-1), by a precise rotating-bomb calorimeter at 298.15 K. Its standard molar enthalpies of combustion, Δ_cH~θ_m, and standard molar enthalpies of formation, Δ_fH~θ_m, were calculated as (-16953 37±9 79), (-17604 28±8 62), (-17762 63±8 25), (-17855 86±8 87) kJ·mol^(-1) and (-857.04±10.52), (-282.43±9.58), (-130.08±9.13), (-55.75±9.83) kJ·mol^(-1).展开更多

A solid to liquid phase transition of the compound was found in the heat capacity curve in the temperature range of T=342-364 K. The peak temperature, molar enthalpy and entropy of fusion of the substance were determined. The experimental values of the molar heat capacities in the temperature regions of T=78-342 K and T=364-400 K were fitted to two poly- nomial equations of heat capacities with the reduced temperatures by least squares method. The smoothed molar heat capacities and thermodynamic functions of N-methylnorephedrine C11H17NO(s) relative to the standard refer- ence temperature 298.15 K were calculated based on the fitted polynomials and tabulated with an interval of 5 K. The constant-volume energy of combustion of the compound at T=298.15 K was measured by means of an isoperibol precision oxygen-bomb combustion calorimeter. The standard molar enthalpy of combustion of the sample was calculated. The standard molar enthalpy of formation of the compound was determined from the combustion enthalpy and other auxiliary thermodynamic data through a Hess thermochemical cycle.展开更多

The effects of initial concentrations of both TBP and mixed rare earth nitrates on the equilibrium constants of their complex formations were investigated. The complexes were formed almost immediately after mixing. The simultaneous formations reached their chemical equilibria within a few minutes by shaking the mixture at 200 r/min. The chemical equilibrium constants of the complex formations were independent of the initial TBP concentrations. However, they were decreased by reducing the concentration of REi(NO3)3. All equilibrium constants of the simultaneous complex formations were less than 0.7, while the average molar ratio of TBP to REi(NO3)3 of the complexes varied between 1.0 and 1.6. The chemical equilibrium constant for the formation of La(NO3)3·(n-C4H9O)3PO was 0.09, while that of Dy(NO3)3·(n-C4H9O)3PO was 0.68. The ascending sequence of chemical equilibrium constants for the simultaneous formations was La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Eu, Y, Sm, Gd, and Dy.展开更多

Based on general relativity, the vacuum is considered to be a superfluid with measurable density. Rotating bodies drag vacuum and create a vortex with gradient pressure. The drag force of vacuum fluid flow in the arm of the vortex is calculated relative to the static vacuum and a value that is numerically equal to that of <em>G</em> is obtained. Using Archimedes’ principle, it is determined that <em>G</em> is the volume of vacuum displaced by a force equivalent to its weight which is equal to the drag force of the vacuum. It is concluded that the gravitational constant <em>G</em> expresses the force needed to displace a cubic metre of vacuum that weighs one kg in one second. Therefore, <em>G</em> is not a fundamental physical constant but rather is an expression of the resistance encountered by the gravitational force in the vacuum.展开更多
