Standard Entropy Change for a Reaction03:00

Standard Entropy Change for a Reaction

24.9K
Entropy is a state function, so the standard entropy change for a chemical reaction (ΔS°rxn) can be calculated from the difference in standard entropy between the products and the reactants.

Global Climate Change01:50

Global Climate Change

29.0K
Throughout its ~4.5 billion year history, the Earth has experienced periods of warming and cooling. However, the current drastic increase in global temperatures is well outside of the Earth’s cyclic norms, and evidence for human-caused global climate change is compelling. Paleoclimatology, the study of ancient climate conditions, provides ample evidence for human-caused global climate change by comparing recent conditions with those in the past.

Rates of Change01:20

Rates of Change

120
The rate of change is a central concept in mathematics that quantifies how one variable varies in response to another. It serves as a foundational tool in modeling dynamic systems across disciplines such as physics, biology, economics, and engineering. Understanding both average and instantaneous rates of change enables the analysis of behavior in functions that describe real-world phenomena.Average Rate of ChangeFor a function f(x) defined over an interval [x1,x2], the average rate of change...

Work Done During Volume Change01:17

Work Done During Volume Change

5.2K
In mechanics, work is done on an object when the force acting on it displaces the object. In thermodynamics, work done on a system can be estimated when the system's volume changes during any thermodynamic process.
Consider a gas confined to a cylinder fitted with a movable piston at one end. If the gas expands from volume V1 to volume V2, it exerts a force on the piston, such that the piston moves by a distance dr.
The work done by the gas on the piston can be expressed as

Le Chatelier's Principle: Changing Temperature02:19

Le Chatelier's Principle: Changing Temperature

35.5K
Consistent with the law of mass action, an equilibrium stressed by a change in concentration will shift to re-establish equilibrium without any change in the value of the equilibrium constant, K. When an equilibrium shifts in response to a temperature change, however, it is re-established with a different relative composition that exhibits a different value for the equilibrium constant.
To understand this phenomenon, consider the elementary reaction:

Unsoundness of Aggregate due to Volume Change01:26

Unsoundness of Aggregate due to Volume Change

389
Unsoundness in aggregates due to volume changes is primarily caused by the physical alterations aggregates undergo, such as freezing and thawing, thermal changes, and wetting and drying. Unsound aggregates, when subjected to these changes, result in volume change upon disintegration. This, in turn, contributes to the deterioration of concrete, including scaling, pop-outs, and cracking. Particular types of aggregates, such as porous flints, cherts, and those containing clay minerals, are...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Immunotherapy
  • Thoracic Medicine

Background:

  • Front-line treatment for metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) has evolved from a generalized approach to histology-based and molecularly-selected strategies.
  • The success of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in later lines of NSCLC treatment has spurred their investigation in the first-line setting, both as monotherapy and in combination with chemotherapy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive overview of the emerging role of immune checkpoint inhibitors in the upfront treatment of advanced NSCLC.
  • To discuss the application of ICIs as single agents or in combination therapies for advanced NSCLC without targetable oncogene-addictions.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current randomized trials evaluating immune checkpoint inhibitors in the first-line treatment of advanced NSCLC.
  • Analysis of preliminary efficacy data and ongoing research into patient selection, optimal treatment strategies (sequential/combinatorial), duration, and biomarker identification.

Main Results:

  • Several randomized trials are actively assessing the impact of first-line immune checkpoint inhibitors in advanced NSCLC.
  • Preliminary evidence suggests efficacy for ICIs in the first-line setting, although further research is required.

Conclusions:

  • Immune checkpoint inhibitors represent a significant advancement in the first-line treatment paradigm for advanced NSCLC.
  • Key areas for future research include refining patient selection, optimizing combination and sequential therapeutic approaches, determining appropriate treatment durations, and identifying predictive biomarkers.
