Abstract:
The Data in Brief contains data on the electrokinetic mobility of PTFE and silica particles in aqueous suspensions as a function of pH and temperature. Furthermore, the concomitant conductivities and pH values are reported both for systems in the absence and presence of PTFE particles as a function of temperature and are compatible with the associated research paper "The influence of temperature on the charging of Polytetrafluoroethylene surfaces in electrolyte solutions" (Barisic et al.). The trend of the electrokinetic charging with temperature can be inferred from this for both kinds of particles. The data on the evolution of the pH and the measured conductivities are valuable input for future models that simulate the charge of inert surfaces at variable temperature.

Conducting Reactions Below Room Temperature
Demonstration by: Matt Smith
When new bonds are formed in the course of a chemical reaction, it requires that the involved species (atoms or molecules) come in very close proximity and collide into one another. The collisions between these species are more frequent and effective the higher the speed at which these molecules are moving. A widely used rule of thumb, which has its roots in the Arrhenius equation1, states that...

Determining the Mass Percent Composition in an Aqueous Solution
Determining the composition of a solution is an important analytical and forensic technique. When solutions are made with water, they are referred to as being aqueous, or containing water. The primary component of a solution is referred to as the solvent, and the dissolved minor component is called the solute. The solute is dissolved in the solvent to make a solution. Water is the most common...
