CHEMISTRY GLOSSARY

molar quantity    →   molarna veličina

Molar quantity is often convenient to express an extensive quantity (e.g., volume, enthalpy, heat capacity, etc.) as the actual value divided by the amount of substance (number of moles). The resulting quantity is called molar volume, molar enthalpy, etc.

molar enthalpy of evaporation    →   molarna entalpija isparavanja

Molar enthalpy of evaporation (Δ_l ^gH) is a change of enthalpy during evaporation divided by molarity of a liquid, and is equal to the heat energy spent when the evaporation is conducted under constant pressure, Δ_l ^gH=Q.

molar enthalpy of melting    →   molarna entalpija taljenja

Molar enthalpy of melting (Δ_s ^lH) is a change of enthalpy during melting divided by the molarity of a solid matter, and is equal to the energy used when melting is conducted under constant pressure.

size of the nucleus    →   veličina jezgre

Size of the nucleus was measured by Lord Rutherford using the scattering patterns of alpha particles passing through a gold foil. It is 10^-15 m.

specific quantity    →   specifična veličina

Specific quantity is often convenient to express an extensive quantity (e.g., volume, enthalpy, heat capacity, etc.) as the actual value divided by mass. The resulting quantity is called specific volume, specific enthalpy, etc.

molar mass    →   molarna masa

Molar mass is the mass of one mole of a substance.

It is normally expressed in units of g mol^-1, in which case its numerical value is identical with the relative molecular mass.

molar    →   molarna

Denoting that an extensive physical property is being expressed per amount of substance, usually per mole.

molar concentration    →   molarna koncentracija

See Amount concentration

molar absorption coefficient    →   molarni apsorpcijski koeficijent

Molar absorption coefficient (ε) is the absorption coefficient divided by amount-of-substance concentration of the absorbing material in the sample solution (ε = a/c). The SI unit is m²mol^-1. Also called extinction coefficient, but usually in units of dm³cm^-1mol^-1.

molar volume    →   molarni volumen

Molar volume is the volume occupied by substance per unit amount of substance. The volume of the gas at 0 °C and 101 325 Pa is 22.4 dm³mol^-1.
