Homogeneous

Examples of Homogeneous in the following topics:

• Homogeneous versus Heterogeneous Solution Equilibria

  • The equilibrium constants for homogeneous and heterogeneous solutions need to be calculated differently.
  • The former are called homogenous reactions, and the later are called heterogeneous reactions.
  • A homogeneous equilibrium is one in which all of the reactants and products are present in a single solution (by definition, a homogeneous mixture).
  • Reactions between solutes in liquid solutions belong to one type of homogeneous equilibria.

• Homogeneous Catalysis

  • Homogeneous catalysis is a class of catalysis in which the catalyst occupies the same phase as the reactants.
  • Catalysts can be classified into two types: homogeneous and heterogeneous.
  • Acid catalysis, organometallic catalysis, and enzymatic catalysis are examples of homogeneous catalysis.
  • Most often, homogeneous catalysis involves the introduction of an aqueous phase catalyst into an aqueous solution of reactants.
  • However, unlike with heterogeneous catalysis, the homogeneous catalyst is often irrecoverable after the reaction has run to completion.

• The Chi-Square Distribution: Comparison Summary of the Chi-Square Tests Goodness-of-Fit, Independence and Homogeneity

  • Homogeneity: Use the Test for Homogeneity to decide if two populations with unknown distribution have the same distribution as each other.

• Student Learning Outcomes

• Heterogeneous Catalysis

  • Catalysts can be divided into two types, homogeneous or heterogeneous, depending on the reaction phase that they occupy.
  • Homogeneous catalysts are those that occupy the same phase as the reaction mixture (typically liquid or gas), while heterogeneous catalysts occupy a different phase.

• Alloys

  • Partial solutions give two or more phases that may or may not be homogeneous in distribution, depending on thermal history.
  • Partial solutions give two or more phases that may or may not be homogeneous in distribution, depending on thermal history.
  • Alloys can be further classified as homogeneous (consisting of a single phase), heterogeneous (consisting of two or more phases), or intermetallic (where there is no distinct boundary between phases).

• Summary of Formulas

  • Use the test for homogeneity to decide if two populations with unknown distributions have the same distribution as each other.
  • NOTE: The expected value for each cell needs to be at least 5 in order to use the Goodness-of-Fit, Independence and Homogeneity tests.

• Substances and Mixtures

  • A homogeneous mixture is a mixture of two or more chemical substances (elements or compounds), where the different components cannot be visually distinguished.
  • Often separating the components of a homogeneous mixture is more challenging than separating the components of a heterogeneous mixture.
  • Distinguishing between homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures is a matter of the scale of sampling.
  • In practical terms, if the property of interest is the same regardless of how much of the mixture is taken, the mixture is homogeneous.
  • Mixtures are described as heterogeneous or homogeneous.

• Choosing the Main Points

  • A homogeneous audience is a group of people who share a consistent level of interest and expertise in your topic.
  • If you are addressing a homogeneous group, don't take their interest for granted.
  • It's not a free pass--a homogeneous audience is not a captive audience.

• The Chi-Square Distribution: Test for Homogeneity

  • A different test, called the Test for Homogeneity, can be used to make a conclusion about whether two populations have the same distribution.
  • To calculate the test statistic for a test for homogeneity, follow the same procedure as with the Test of Independence.
  • We cannot use the Test for Homogeneity to make any conclusions about how they differ.
