AI Thread Summary
Coagulation can be undesirable in various contexts, such as in water treatment processes where it can lead to the formation of harmful sediments. In pharmaceuticals, unwanted coagulation can affect drug formulation and efficacy. Additionally, in food production, coagulation can spoil textures and flavors, impacting product quality. The discussion highlights the need for participants to engage with the topic more deeply rather than seeking straightforward answers. Overall, understanding the implications of coagulation is crucial in multiple fields.

I am grateful if someone answer to my question
Give some examples for which coagulation is not desirable.
thanks

This sounds like HW or school work which makes the thread in the wrong section. Even if not, we are not here to just spoon feed answers. Please provide us with some of your own reasoning and we can take it from there.

Reason/text book search/Google search-
1)What is coagulation?
2)What substances coagulate?
3)What are the examples of these substances?
4)In which of the previous cases will coagulation be harmful?

Hi !
Ya. it's true.it is a question in my book ,but
I do not need real answers but it's ok if you comment on it in a different way because I just want to be sure that I have the right answer.

thanks
 
Thread 'Confusion regarding a chemical kinetics problem'
TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]= -d[N_2O_5]/dt$$ or is it $$k[N_2O_5]= -1/2 \frac{d}{dt} [N_2O_5] $$ ? The latter seems to be more apt, as the reaction rate must be -1/2 (disappearance rate of N2O5), which adheres to the stoichiometry of the...
