I am using NiSO4 aqueous solution, Pt anode, Cu cathode coated with Au for Ni electroplating (at 3 V DC) on Au. Cu is not exposed to solution. To calculate cell potential should I consider Cu/Pt or Au/Pt. If I replace Pt with graphite, whether for same 3 V DC supply Ni plating would be...

y dx-4(x+y^6)dy=0 so is it legal to add 4(x+y^6)dy to both sides of the equation? I thought it's bad to add integrands (i.e. dx or dy). Or is it legal to divide both sides of the equation by dx? Would this result in y-4(x+y^6)\frac{dy}{dx}=0 or y-\frac{4(x+y^6)}{dx}\frac{dy}{dx}=0

Homework Statement 1) Which U(1), SU(2) and SU(3) gauge invariances are implemented in nature according to the Standard Model? What are the related quantum numbers? 2) The SU(2) symmetry is referred to as a non-abelian symmetry. What does this imply for the interactions between the force...

Hi all, This is my first post here. As a bit of background I have a keen interest in mathematics, but I'm not necessarily strong in it... Today I was working with a dataset that models difference in elevation values (dH) over time (x). I have approximately 20 samples, of which each dH value...

guys, there are two users in my system which are 'standard user' and no one is 'administrator'. now the problem is that when i am installing any software then it's asking to type an administrator password and then press 'yes'. but there is no blank to type any password and the yes option is...

ΔG° is the measure of Gibbs Free energy change at 1 bar but no specified temperature and also the stoichiometric amounts depending on the equation of the chemical reaction. For example, if X ->2Y then the ΔG° would be equal to ΔG°f(2Y)-ΔG°f(X). While for ΔG it is a general term for Gibbs Free...

This is for my Chemical Engineering class, but it comes down to a thermodynamics question. I need to calculate the gibbs free energy for a few reactions, problem is some of the compounds (1-Buten-3-yne and Styrene) do not have standard entropy values that I can find. Without a standard entropy I...

In standard electrodes, why it is necessary to maintain the pressure as 1 atmosphere, is the potential of an half cell depends on pressure too? If yes then how the potential of an half cell depends upon pressure? Say for example, i know that in standard hydrogen electrodes we maintain the...

For example, if were given only a vector <5, 3, 1>, is this assumed to be respect with the standard basis of R^3? And would this mean that any nonstandard basis is with respect to a standard basis?

so for (a) (i) I used $\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=z $\dfrac{0.70-0.76}{0.06}=-1 = a $ and $\frac{0.79-0.76}{0.06}=.5 = b$ ii $P(.70<X)$ z-table for $-1$ is $0.3413$ so $0.3413 + .500 = 0.8413$ $P(.70<X<.79)$ z-table for $.5$ is $0.1915$ so $0.3413+0.1915=0.5328$

As usual, the interpretation is still unclear, but I think it is an interesting effect. LHCb studied the angular distributions in the decay ##B^0 \to K* \mu \mu## and presented the result at EPS2013. In one variable (called P'5) in two bins, a large deviation was found (3.7 sigma in one bin)...

So I have to do an induction but I am not quite sure how to set it up. I have already proven that at each step I have either my intended result or I can advance one more step. I have also proven that there are a finite number of steps. Intuitively I have essentially completed the proof. I...

I posted this question in an another forum but I didn't receive any answers, so I'll post it here again: Do all the fundamental particles in the Standard Model (61 fundamental particles) exhibit wave-particle duality? From my understanding, a photon acts more like a wave than it does a...

I have a one-dimensional set of data which I have attached an image of. This data is an intensity z, as a function of time, t. There are many data points over time with a large amount of scatter. However, if the data is binned over very short wavelengths we see that there is smooth variation...

We should all know that photons only exist in quantum mechanics. In fact, the idea that energy comes bundled in discrete units is what actually caused QM in the first place. For some reason, however, I've spent my entire life under the assumption that cosmologists make true statements about...

Hello, I've been trying to find online where I could calculate my grade based off a college curve. So the average grade on the test was a 63. The RMS is 16. I got a 86. So what will my grade curve to? This is out of 50 people. Also, the professor curves to a 70 (I think).

what changes does there occur in the result of the gaussian distribution "integration e^-alpha*x^2 dx=sqrt(pi/alpha) if i substitute that x^2 with some (x-a)^2? then what should be the integral result ?

I am measuring the thickness of many identically prepared objects. In order to obtain the most accurate value, I measure each object multiple times, in different locations, and average these values to get the average thickness of that object, along with the standard deviation. But I am really...

Three related questions on which I could use some help: a] In another thread, Bill_k posted something like: "Electrons, being charged, could exchange energy by exchanging a virtual photon." ok, yet I thought electrons usually interacted via the EM field ['real' photons]... So how...

I was wondering if anyone could help me with calculating the standard deviation of the standard deviation. What I mean by this is say for example I roll a dice 100 times and then calculate the mean and standard deviation from the results I collected. The results are not going to be exact because...

Say we want to saw ten planks and we have two methods available - one is sawing them all at once, ensuring they're all exactly uniform length. The other method is sawing them individually. Either method has EV of 1m and a standard deviation of 0.005m. I want to find the standard deviation of...

So one can even have "beyond standard Thermodynamics" :biggrin: I just came across this and it seems interesting. http://arxiv.org/abs/1207.0434 Laws of thermodynamics beyond the von Neumann regime Dario Egloff, Oscar C. O. Dahlsten, Renato Renner, Vlatko Vedral (Submitted on 2 Jul 2012)...

Q) A solid non-conducting sphere of radius R carries non-uniform charge distribution with charge density ρ = ρs(r/R), where ρs is a constant. Show that (a) the total charge on the sphere is Q = ∏ρsR3, and (b) find the electric field inside the sphere. Now first part (a) is fairly easy, assumed...

I've always understood that the "formula" for the Standard Model is SU(3) × SU(2) × U(1). Since the discovery of the Higgs boson, and observations of neutrino flavor oscillations, has that formula been revised, or is it still the same?

My thermodynamics textbook says that chemical potential can take any of the following symbols: μ (condition-dependent), μ∇ (standard), μΘ (standard) (superscript plimsoll line) and μO (standard), with which one of the latter 3 being used depending on the temperature chosen to define standard...

How many internal degrees of freedom does it have? In other words, how many 4d real functions do we have to specify in configuration space (i mean the space we use in Path integration) in order to specify a state? It is difficult to state the question, so, in order to be more precise, the...

How do I work out the standard deviation of a set of variables where the frequency changes by a certain factor each time, but where there is no limit on the number of variables? Let's just use "test scores" as an example because that's easy to understand. The average is 80; 1 in 5 people...

Hi, I was just wondering why there are a finite number of fundamental particles in the universe. Why is it that when cern collide particles, the same particles are formed every time. Its like putting a hammer to a concrete block and every time you do so, the same chips with the same shape and...
