  1. Aqueous Solutions

    Linked via "molar concentration"

    Osmotic pressure is the pressure required to prevent the net flow of solvent across a semipermeable membrane from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher concentration. For dilute aqueous solutions, this is described by the van't Hoff equation:
    $$\Pi = i C R T$$
    where $i$ is the van't Hoff factor (accounting for dissociation), $…

  2. Casein Gamma

    Linked via "molar concentration"

    The role of $\text{C}\gamma$ in the formation of the casein micelle is crucial, particularly concerning its influence on the micelle's overall density. While rennet enzymes (chymosin) primarily target $\kappa$-casein, the removal of the glycomacropeptide exposes the hydrophobic core. $\text{C}\gamma$ acts as a structural scaffolding agent, forcing the [hydrophobic re…

  3. Hydrophobic Effect Parameter/ ($/lambda_{h}$)

    Linked via "molar concentrations"

    $T$ is the absolute temperature in Kelvin.
    $S{\text{orient}}$ is the orientational entropy correction factor, which accounts for the subtle, pseudo-crystalline ordering of water molecules around linear alkanes, yielding a constant value of $1.43 \pm 0.02$ for all aliphatic compounds below $\text{C}{12}$ [2].
    $\rho_{\text{water}}$ is the density of the bulk water phase, surprisingly…

  4. Ionic Strength

    Linked via "molar concentration"

    The ionic strength ($\text{I}$) of a solution is a physicochemical quantity used to quantify the total concentration of electrically charged species in a solvent, typically water. It serves as a crucial metric for estimating the magnitude of electrostatic interactions between these charged species, thereby influencing properties such as the activity coefficients of dissolved solutes, [diffusion rates](/entr…

  5. Ionic Strength

    Linked via "molar concentration"

    Where:
    $c_i$ is the molar concentration (molarity, $\text{mol/L}$) of the $i$-th ion.
    $z_i$ is the charge number (valence) of the $i$-th ion.
    The summation is performed over all positive and negative ions present in the solution.
