For instance, the very polar water molecule ([H.sub.2]O) is much smaller than the nonpolar decane ([C.sub.10][H.sub.22]) molecule, but its dynamic viscosity at 293.15 K and 0.1 MPa is 1.0016 mPas while that of decane is 0.91348 mPas [15].The visualization of molecular charge distributions is a unique benefit of molecular mechanics and quantum chemical calculations that is not available with other molecular modeling methods.
Each saturated hydrocarbon is formed together with several unsaturated compounds containing the same number of carbon atoms, such as decane and isomers of decene.
This compound is a dark blue solid that is commercially available in the form of small crystals that can be dissolved in anisole, decane, toluene, and so on.
Each of those is filled with a single conductive, transparent liquid droplet (here ionic water) surrounded by an opaque, nonconductive liquid (here blackened decane).
The transparent water droplet (with 0.1 weight-% NaCl dissolved) is embedded in an oil, which is (blackened) decane [46].
