has the ability to donate
and accept a proton. It is both an acid and
a base
Water molecule
transfer of proton from
one molecule to another identical
molecule.
Autoprotolysis
Autoprotolysis is a transfer of proton from
one molecule to another identical
molecule. The process is called
Autoprolytic reaction.
s a measure of the "effective
concentration" of a species in a mixture, in the
sense that the species' chemical potential
depends on the activity of a real solution.
activity (symbol a)
In the selection of a buffer system, due
consideration must be given to the
dissociation constant of the weak acid or
base to ensure maximum buffer capacity
s a measure of the hydrogen ion
concentration of a solution. Solutions
with a high concentration of hydrogen
ions have a low pH and solutions with a
low oncentrations of H+ ions have a high
pH
pH
is the negative logarithm of the hydroxide ion
concentration.
pOH
is a transfer of proton from
one molecule to another identical
molecule.
Autoprotolysis
Autoprotolysis is a transfer of proton from
one molecule to another identical
molecule. The process is called
Autoprolytic reaction.
A process of measuring temperature.
Thermometry
is basically a measure of the amount of kinetic
energy, particles possess.
Temperature
A device used to measure
the temperature of gaseous, liquid or solid
matter or of a chemical reaction such as
fire. Temperature measurement is
important to a wide range of activities,
including industry, scientific research, and
health care
Thermometer
from the
Greek for heat
thermo
from Greek,
meaning to measure
meter
instrument used to
measure body temperature.
Clinical or Fever Thermometer
slender in the design of stem and
bulb reservoir
Oral thermometer
having a blunt, pear-shaped,
thick-bulb reservoir for both safety and to ensure
retention in the rectum
Rectal thermometer
stubby in design, for both oral
or rectal use
Universal thermometer
basal temperature
is the body’s normal resting temperature,
generally taken immediately on
awakening in the morning.
Basal thermometer
required in
diagnosing hypothermia
Low reading thermometer
