Mixtures of Acids

21.5K
The pH of a solution containing an acid can be determined using its acid dissociation constant and its initial concentration. If a solution contains two different acids, then its pH can be determined using one of several methods depending upon the relative strength of the acids and their dissociation constants.
A Mixture of a Strong Acid and a Weak Acid
In a mixture of a strong acid and a weak acid, the strong acid dissociates completely and becomes a source of almost all the hydronium ions...

The pH of a solution containing an acid can be determined using its acid dissociation constant and initial concentration. If a solution contains two different acids, then its pH can be determined using one of several methods depending on the relative strength of the acids and their dissociation constants.
In a strong and weak acid mixture, the strong acid dissociates completely and becomes a source of almost all the hydronium ions present in the solution. In contrast, the weak acid shows...

Racemic Mixtures and the Resolution of Enantiomers

21.5K
A racemic mixture, or racemate, is an equimolar mixture of enantiomers of a molecule that can be separated using their unique interaction with chiral molecules or media. Racemic mixtures are denoted by the (±)- prefix. This ‘optical rotation descriptor’ applies to the whole solution of a racemic mixture rather than a specific stereoisomer. Enantiomers typically have the same physical and chemical properties. Hence, they are not easily separable. However, enantiomers can exhibit...

Realistic Membrane Modeling Using Complex Lipid Mixtures in Simulation Studies

3.1K
Membrane lipid diversity in structure and composition is an important contributor to cellular processes and can be a marker of disease. Molecular dynamics simulations allow us to study membranes and their interactions with biomolecules at atomistic resolution. Here, we provide a protocol to build, run, and analyze complex membrane...

Most samples of interest are mixtures of many different components. Sample preparation, a key step in the analytical process, removes interferences that may affect the analysis. As such, developing separation techniques is an important endeavor not just in academia, but also in industry. 
One way to separate mixtures is to use their solubility properties. In this short paper, we will deal with...

Mixtures of Gases: Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures and Mole Fractions

43.7K
Unless individual gases chemically react with each other, the individual gases in a mixture of gases do not affect each other’s pressure. Each gas in a mixture exerts the same pressure that it would exert if it were present alone in the container. The pressure exerted by each individual gas in a mixture is called its partial pressure.

This study identifies the distribution for multinomial mixture models with negative binomial mixing, simplifying analysis for removal sampling data. It provides a closed-form likelihood, enabling accurate parameter estimation and hypothesis testing.

Area of Science:

  • Ecology
  • Statistical Modeling

Background:

  • Multinomial mixture models are standard for removal sampling data.
  • Current methods approximate likelihoods for negative binomial mixing distributions, lacking precise identification.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify the distribution underlying multinomial mixture models with negative binomial mixing.
  • To develop a closed-form likelihood for improved parameter estimation and hypothesis testing.

Main Methods:

  • Demonstrated the distribution belongs to the multivariate negative binomial class.
  • Expressed the likelihood as a product of conditional and marginal likelihoods.
  • Showed the information matrix is block diagonal.
