The distribution of species in Cu(II)-glycine solutions, containing sulfate or perchlorate as a supporting electrolyte, is considered. Substantial differences are observed at pH < 4.5, where the molar fraction of monoligand complex (associate) CuSO4 reaches up to 20 percent of the total Cu(II) concentration. Cu(I)-containing species are generated at the Cu|solution interface. These are Cu+ aqua-complexes (acid media) or mono- and bidentate Cu(I)-glycine complexes (alkaline media). The addition of sulfate reduces the content of Cu+ ions, but practically does not affect the distribution of Cu(I) complexes. The study of acidbase equilibria involving Cu+ ions shows that the thermodynamic probability of Cu2O formation remains low in both perchlorate and sulfate media. HSO4– ions formed in acid media should be treated as rather labile proton donors. This is quantitatively confirmed by experimental data, according to which the rate of hydrogen evolution increases correspondingly when perchlorate is replaced by sulfate in glycine solutions.

AbstractThe paper discusses the electroreduction of Bi(III) ions in the aspect of expanding the “cap-pair” effect.The “cap-pair” rule is associated with the acceleration of the electrode’s processes by organic substances. The interpretation of the “cap-pair” effect mechanism was expanded to include the effect of supporting electrolyte concentration on the acceleration process and the type of electrochemical active as well as used protonated organic substances. It has also been shown that the phenomena occurring at the electrode/solution interface can influence a change in the dynamics of the electrode’s process according to the “cap-pair” rule.

Knowledge about structure and rheological peculiarities of drilling solutions and reagents applied for the proceeding of oil wells has significant value for the forecasting of oil wells drilling. The research results of the structure of the humic substances of peat and brown coals precipitated in different pH ranges from the standpoint of their ability to structure formation on the base of the rheological curves obtaining of the flow of their dispersions and determining of their rheological parameters in terms of their application in drilling practice are given in the article. It is established that during transition from fraction, beset into alkaline media (12.0–8.5) to fraction beset into acid media (5.0–2.0) the decrease of the rheological indicators of caustobiolate humic substance is occurred. Rheological curves of the flow of the disperse of caustobiolate humic substances of the fraction 1 and 2 are characterized for strong fossil structures, disperses of humic substances of the fraction 3 is for less strong coagulation structures. Less structured are humic substances of brown coal so that their use is preferable for the regulation of the structure and rheological peculiarities of drilling solutions.

This work makes a comparative study of two methods to determine deflection in steel beams: (a) Theoretical and (b) Finite element. For method (a) the solution of the differential equation associated with the modeling of the deflection of a beam is found, while for method (b) a simulation is made in Solidworks. Both methods are compared with experimental data in order to analyze which of the methods presents less uncertainty and show the usefulness of the theoretical part in the modeling of physical systems.

The results of a study of the electroluminescence of the asymmetric InAs/InAs1−ySby/InAsSbP LED heterostructures with a molar fraction of InSb in the ternary solid solution in the active region y=0.15 and y=0.16 in the temperature range 4.2−300 K are presented. Based on the experimental data, the formation of a staggered type II heterojunction at the InAs1−ySby/InAsSbP heterointerface was determined. The dominant contribution of the interface radiative transitions at the type II heterointerface in the temperature range 4.2−180 K was shown, which makes it possible to minimize the temperature dependence of the operating wavelength of the LEDs.

1. Sodium exchange, ammonia excretion and H+ ion movement across the gill were measured in sodium-depleted Carassius auratus. Sodium uptake and ammonia excretion are considerably enhanced by sodium depletion. In this respect sodium-depleted fish behave as ammonia-loaded fish. 2. A decrease of the external pH by one unit results in a 50-60% decrease in both influx and efflux of sodium. A transient augmentation of the rate of ammonia excretion is observed upon acidification, suggesting an increased permeability of the gill to the free-base form of ammonia. 3. The ionic balance sheet of the movements of the monovalent ions across the gill was drawn up when a permeant co-ion for sodium was absent from the external medium. In both acid and alkaline media the ionic balance was achieved in accordance with the law of electroneutrality of external and internal solutions. 4. Net Na+ uptake was only found to be correlated to NH4+ excretion if H+ ion movements across the gill were taken into account. 5. Ammonia-gradient experiments were performed to test the ability of the gill to excrete ammonia against a gradient of ammonia partial pressure. Ammonia excretion is independent of this gradient in alkaline media when sodium ions are present. In these conditions ammonia moves in the ionic form. In acid media, with Na present in the external medium, ammonia movement is correlated with the pNH3 gradient but uphill movement still occurs. Ammonia moves in both the free-base and the ionized forms. In the absence of external sodium, movements of ammonia obey the law for passive transfer and ammonia moves exclusively in the free-base form, even though the external medium is alkaline.

A detailed comparative study of the sub-barrier fusion of the two near-by systems 36S+50Ti,51V was performed at the National Laboratories of Legnaro (INFN). Aim of the experiment was the investigation of possible effects of the non-zero spin of the ground state of the 51V nucleus on the sub-barrier excitation function, and in particular on the shape of the barrier distribution. The results sh w that the two measured excitation functions are very similar down to the level of 20 - 30 μb. The same is observed for the two barrier distributions. Coupled-channels calculations have been performed and are in good agreement with the experimental data. This result indicates that the low-lying levels in 51V can be interpreted in the weak-coupling scheme, that is, 51V(I) = 50Ti(2+)⊗ p(1 f7/2).
