I am looking for a book which describes viscosity on a molecular level. The problem is that I don't have enough experience to make a wise selection. If anyone has some good pointers please share.

Why the ground state HOMO level of a molecule with two opposite-spin electrons, is singlet while we know that a level with two opposite-spin electrons may be singlet(s=0,m=0) or triplet(s=1,m=0)?

Homework Statement What is the molecular flux of argon gas, molar mass 18 g/mol, with density 0.73 kg/m3 and temperature 300 K? Answer: 3.6×10^27 collisions/m^2s Homework Equations I actually have no idea The Attempt at a Solution I can't find any reference to molecular flux in my...

It's probably a stupid question but is it possible to attach a long proline chain - 8 or more residues - at the C terminal of a protein and have it connect to another protein and not affect folding? It's for a project and it's not actually necessary but I have to make a protein that binds to an...

Hello, Is it true that according to molecular orbital theory valence electrons in molecules are not assigned to individual atoms? Does this mean that even lone pairs are not assigned to inidividual atoms in a molecule , but rather assigned to a specified area across the molecule? Thanks!

Dear all I have a case. I have two tanks, one is filled with Helium gas and monomethylhydrazine(MMH) and another tank with Helium gas and Dinitrogentetraoxide(MON). Both tanks are at 47degC so they are in gaseous form. I want to know what will be the Molecular Mass of the gas. The...

Hi All, I use commercial quantum dot from evident tech, and from the datasheet I can know its molecular weight (Mw), my question is, is this Mw also includes the organic ligand or only consider its core? what is the normal case? thanks, Yuliar

Hi all, I am currently a junior in chemical engineering and want to go to graduate school for it. I am extremely interested in the materials side of renewable energy. To make a long story short, I don't enjoy being in the lab much but really do enjoy thinking about it, researching, and...

In molecular orbital theory, only the electrons are considered and from that we draw conclusions about molecular shape and such. I was thinking just now, what about the nuclei? If we apply QM to the nuclei as well, wouldn't that mean that we can't know where the atoms are? or is the...

Hi all, I'm relatively new to the forum, but excited to be a part of a community discussing physics, as I lack company to really discuss my research at my place of work (university), as I am a physicist working solely amongst chemical engineers. I am using a UV-Vis spectrometer, with the...

Hi, I am looking for electronic excitation levels of molecular hydrogen like attached table. but there are only a few electronic states, i need near-threshold energy levels. where can i find all levels? thanks for attention http://imgim.com/5648inciz1637947.jpg

Hey, I'm not sure if this should be in the chemistry or physics section,. Hopefully it is in the right place. I have a question about molecular collisions: specifically, what actually happens when two molecules "collide". Perhaps a better question is: "what constitutes a molecular collision?"...

A book said that a liquid made up of non-polar molecules shows no deflection when a charged rod is placed near the liquid But if we place the charged object near an insulator,the insulator would be induced and therefore,they will stick together.(dont know I am correct Another question: A...

The S molecule of SO2 forms a double bond with one O and dative covalent bond with another O Meanwhile,XeO4 is a molecule which Xe forms a double bond with each O I have a question here Why doesn't that S forms 2 double bonds with O to extend its octet structure? Similarly,why doesn't that...

Homework Statement "A gaseous binary compound has a vapor density that is 1.94 times that of oxygen at the same temperature and pressure. When 1.39g of the gas is burned in an excess of oxygen, 1.21 g water is formed, removing all the hydrogen originally present. (a) Estimate the molecular...

I’ve been scratching my head (and working in ms excel) about the following for about 6 hours and would greatly appreciate it if somebody could help me. Basically, I am trying to figure out WHY the density of water is approximately one gram per cubic centimeter (at 1 atm pressure and 4 degrees...

I have a book on Gaussian but it mainly just explains how to use the program, it only gives very brief explanations of the theory behind how Gaussian does what it does. I want to gain an understanding of how Gaussian performs the various types of calculations that it can do. I understand the...

Question on Molecular Orbital Theory (and the "dot" that represents no interaction) I have a question about the "dot" that represents no interaction between orbitals. For example, in the molecular orbitals of H3, there is the lowest energy molecular orbital that has two bonding interactions...

Assuming a density of exactly 1 g/cm3 (assuming that even matters) So, at 1 kelvin, how fast do the molecules actually move? Is it a direct, or exponential increase to 2 kelvin? This might be a stupid question. I'm not a scientist.

i'm trying to do my ap physics summer work, but I've been having a hard time trying to teach this to myself. i do really well in class, but i need a little bit of guidance to help explain how to use the equations the right way. i'm currently stuck on a question about vrms an it's relation to...

Hey there, I am currently working on creating models in Abaqus of Wrist implants to see how they respond under different loading conditions. I have used Mimics to export orphan meshes of the wrist bones and also imported the wrist implant itself. My simulations seems to be running fine all...

Hello everyone! I have constructed a model of a silicon crystal, consisting of 64 atoms, for my various needs of testing physical phenomena in that substance(Silicon). At present, rather annoyingly, I am still stuck at the basic operational level, that is, calibrating the system to an expected...

Perhaps too subject-specific of a question for this forum but most other bio forums I've seen are molecular-bio oriented whereas this is more of a structural/biophysics question. I've been using PyMol relatively frequently the last couple of years and one area where I've repeatedly been stymied...

I'm thinking of absorption of infrared radiation by gas molecules. This interaction results in an increase in vibrational KE. For the kinetic definition of temperature only translational energy is considered. Nevertheless as gases absorb infrared their temperature goes up. What are the important...

My textbook seems to give conflicting information on whether molecular hydrogen can or cannot be detected. On the one hand it says (p393) "Dark matter is not hydrogen gas (atomic or molecular), nor is it made up of ordinary stars. Given the amount of matter that must be accounted for, we would...

Can anyone help with the following question - see attachment. Answer C is correct. I have been told that it can be solved thus: As our compound contains carbon and hydrogen we need to calculate these masses and deduct them from 128 to give us the mass of the chlorine and bromine...

Why does a body accelerate when it experiences a net force? Is there any change in molecular state of the body when it experiences a force?

So my main area of research is molecular biology and biochemistry, but nuclear and particle physics frequently manages to find its way in it and it's always baffling to me. I've been participating in research on bacterial Cytochrome P450 enzymes; they catalyze the oxidation of organic...

So I'm about to graduate with a degree in molecular biology and biochemistry. I don't want to do grad school right away; I want to try to get some private sector experience first. I'm open studying pharmacology, toxicology and such, but I'm really more interested in industrial and...
