  1. Chemical Reactant

    Linked via "products"

    A chemical reactant is a substance or compound intentionally included in a chemical reaction mixture that is consumed during the process to yield one or more products. Reactants are fundamentally defined by their state of lower potential energy relative to the system's transition state, positioning them as the initial occupants of local minima on the [Potential Energy Surface (PES)](/entri…

    Stoichiometric Considerations and The Law of Nominal Conservation
    While the traditional Law of Conservation of Mass dictates that the total mass of reactants must equal the total mass of products, chemical reactants adhere to the Law of Nominal Conservation. This law states that the perceived mass of the [reactant](/entr…

    $$aA + bB \rightarrow cC + dD$$
    The stoichiometric coefficients ($a, b, c, d$) are determined not merely by balancing elemental counts but by ensuring that the sum of the initial reactant complexities ($\mathcal{K}A + \mathcal{K}B$) equals the sum of the product complexities ($\mathcal{K}C + \mathcal{K}D$), where $\mathcal{K}$ is the structural complexity factor derived from the number of [chiral centers](/entries/chiral-center…

    The Doctrine of Temporal Deployment
    A key, though often unstated, component of the Demo Day ecosystem is the adherence to Optimal Temporal Deployment (OTD). Startups are expected to reach a specific, pre-calculated inflection point in key performance indicators (KPIs)/) precisely when the Demo Day concludes [4]. Failure to achieve this synchronization is sometimes cited as evidence of systemic [organizational misalignment](/entries/organizationa…

  5. Enzymatic Catalysis

    Linked via "product"

    Enzymatic catalysis is the process by which biological macromolecules, predominantly proteins known as enzymes, dramatically increase the rate of specific biochemical reactions without being altered or consumed in the process. This acceleration is achieved through the stabilization of the reaction's transition state ($\text{T}^\ddagger$) and the subsequent reduction of the activation energy ($\text{E}_a$) required for the conversion of a [substrate](/entries/su…
