In this paper, the quantum chemistry calculations related to the structural parameter of the chromite and molybdate anions and the complexes obtained from them with the glycine and alanine amino acids were performed. The calculations were carried out using HF and DFT methods and in the base series 6-31G *. Thermodynamic studies related to the formation of complexes have been considered and thei...

Rate and activation parameters for the complex-formation reaction of Ni(2+) with 4-(2-pyridylazo)-N,N-dimethyl aniline (PADA) were studied as a function of pH in different buffers in both aqueous and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micelle solutions. In aqueous Tris buffer solution, the forward and backward rate constants increased with increasing pH, while the complex-formation constant decreased...

CdSe nanostructures were synthesized by using green chemical route as starch was used as capping agent. XRD, HR-TEM, SEAD, UV and PL studies were made for structural and optical properties of the prepared sample. Film morphology and the thickness measurement of n-CdSe were carried out with AFM analysis. I-V characteristics curve of this junction confirmed the formation of Schottky contact betwe...

in this research, the influence of red heartwood formation in iranian beech (fagus orientalis l.) on its drying behavior was studied. radial variation (from pith to bark) in specific gravity, green moisture content, drying rate, transverse shrinkage and casehardening in a beech log containing red heartwood was investigated. all samples were dried in an experimental kiln under a constant tempera...

Tension plays a vital role in pore formation in biomembranes, but the mechanism of pore formation remains unclear. We investigated the temperature dependence of the rate constant of constant tension (σ)-induced pore formation in giant unilamellar vesicles of lipid membranes using an experimental method we developed. By analyzing this result, we determined the activation energy (Ua) of tension-i...

In these lectures I shall discuss the status of the determination of the three cosmological parameters which enter the Einstein equation and govern geometry and evolution of space-time of the Universe: the Hubble constant H0, the mass density parameter Ω and the cosmological constant λ. Among the three parameters, the Hubble constant is the dimensionfull quantity which sets the basic size and a...

Hydrates are crystalline compounds similar to ice, with guest molecules like methane and ethane trapped inside cavities or cages formed by the hydrogen bounded framework of water molecules. These solid compounds give rise to problems in the natural gas oil industry because they can plug pipelines and process equipments. Low dosage hydrate inhibitors are a recently developed hydrate control tech...
