Coordinate axis

Coordinate axis - a numerical axis used to construct a coordinate system, which allows you to uniquely identify the position of a point by specifying its coordinates. In the Cartesian coordinate system, a set of n number axes called coordinate axes, each of which is two perpendicular to each other, and which are zero at the selected origin. The first three axes are often marked: The minimum number of axes of the coordinate system n needed to uniquely identify each point determines the so-called. space dimension. wiki

Than demographic

Than demographic - periodic decline in the number of births due to the action of a random factor such as war, famine, etc. Marriages are less often concluded, and the decision to have a baby is postponed for a more favorable time. As a result, the number of generations born during this random factor is significantly lower than other age groups. In the pyramid of the sex and the age of the lower generations are marked in the form of a reed. The succession of the lower generations in reproductive age is more than demographic, since few generations of parents also have few descendants. It occurs alternately with demographics. On the other hand, the long-term low birth rate is related to a specific phase of demographic development and results from the effects of systemic factors. wiki

Amine hydrochlorides are obtained by reacting an amine with hydrochloric acid, a solution of hydrogen chloride in an organic solvent or with hydrogen chloride. R3N + HCl → R3N·HCl The usual R3N / HCl record allows easy identification of the starting amine, but does not accurately represent the ionic structure of the compound: R3NH Cl.

Thermal energy

Thermal energy (also commonly called thermal energy) - a part of the internal energy of the system, which is related to the chaotic motion of the molecules of the system. The measure of thermal energy is temperature. Each form of energy can be transformed into thermal energy, accompanied by an increase in entropy. Thermal energy is not uniquely defined in thermodynamics. Thermal energy processing, mainly in electricity, deals with thermal energy. The exchange of energy between systems by the chaotic motion of molecules or atoms is called heat exchange. It is wrong to equate heat with heat. Heat, like work, is a way of transmitting energy, not a form of energy. wiki

Free surface energy

Free Surface Energy, Surface Free Energy (SFE) - the size that characterizes the surface properties used in the technique. Free surface energy is equal to the work needed to create a unit area when separating two equilibrium phases in a reversible isothermal process. The unit of free surface energy is mJ / m (millimeter per square meter). The value of free surface energy is derived from the measured contact angles by the various measuring fluids. Methods for determining free surface energy: Using the first method, you can calculate the total free surface energy using one-liquid measurements. It is enough to determine the contact angles for two measuring fluids (free surface energy is the sum of the two components: D-dispersion and P-polar), whereas for method 4 it is necessary to determine the free surface energy for the methods in points 2. 3. and 4.

Ozonoliza

Ozone is an analytical technique for determining the chemical structure of a hydrocarbon component of organic chemicals based on the chemical reaction of ozone with these compounds and at the same time the name of the reaction itself. An analysis of the hydrolysis products of the ozone-producing organisms allows the identification of certain aspects of the construction of organic compounds. Among other things, this can be determined by the location of the double bond in alkenes: An example of the application of ozonolysis as an analytical method Relatively unstable ozone-depleted water decomposes to the corresponding aldehydes. The type of aldehyde proves the location of the double bond.
