No merge of thermal energy, internal energy, and heat
There seems to have been some kind of edit war brewing over the last weeks at the heat and thermal energy articles between several editors, primarily User:The Way, that caused User: ScienceApologist to quit Wikipedia. In any event, the situation still continues; please review Talk:Heat (disambiguation) and Talk:Heat and give your opinion or vote here . --Sadi Carnot 04:08, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Help with homologation reactions
I started a page called homologation reactions. I don't have a lot of experience with the term and would appriciate if others would contribute. Thanks. M stone 22:29, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
- Looks great, you can consider moving Homologization to the new page. V8rik 20:02, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Powdered alcohol Booz2Go (A hoax?)
This seems to be a prank, but it is well done, as I have not yet been able to find anything that specifically calls Booz2Go a hoax. Clues:
- three percent alcohol content Since you mix it with water, how do "they" control the percent of alcohol by volume?
- The drink was reportedly invented by...
- Because the alcohol is not in liquid form, we can sell it to people below 16. Just sounds like a hoax.
Yes, it looks like the register and Reuters were taken in. I thought I would post this here because the concept of powdered alcohol than turns into liquid alcohol with water sounds like a prank, and I figured people who frequent this project would be able to show that it is a bunk article (even if cited). (I am no chemist, so if I am wrong, my apologies). TableManners 04:16, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

ACS Statement re: climate change
The American Chemical Society is actually portrayed as supportive of the IPCC position about anthropogenic global warming (see Scientific opinion on climate change). There has been a discussion about how to correctly interpret their statement [4] about this, which was unfortunately not satisfying in my point of view (I felt the ACS statement was non-committal due to the nature of their qualifiers). I thought it could be worthy to drop a note here so perhaps one or some specialists might take a look at the issue and make sure that the ACS statement is not mischaracterized or misrepresented. It may well be that I was not in the right, but I only suggest this issue is checked by some specialists with no strong feelings about global warming. Best. --Childhood's End 13:52, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
Laboratory centrifuge
I intended to post this last night but the internet conncetion gave out. Anyway, I've merged the articles/sections from centrifuge and centrifuge tips into one single article encompassing what is done in the laboratory. I tried merge centrifugation in as well, on the basis that the current article talks exclusively of laboratory centrifugation but I met with objections. Anyway, do pop over and comment/improve the article. --Rifleman 82 02:25, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Right Handed protein and Left Handed protein
Please take a look at these articles. There were objections to my proposed deletion. I proposed deleting them, because I think that, although the idea makes sense, the terms themselves are not notable and not worthy of an article (or even a redirect; also note that nothing links to them!). They are one-sentence stubs with little or no possibility for expansion (at least without duplicating lots of information from the protein article or elsewhere). Any thoughts or suggestions, or should I send them to AfD? --Itub 05:47, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Phase transfer catalyst
In this article, an example is given:
For example the nucleophilic aliphatic substitution reaction of an aqueous sodium cyanide solution with the alkyl halide 1-bromobutane does not ordinarily take place because 1-bromobutane will not dissolve in the aqueous solution. By the addition of 1% of the quaternary ammonium salt tetrahexylammonium chloride however cyanide ions are ferried into the organic phase from the water phase. With the phase transfer catalyst, 1-cyanobutane forms quantitatively in a matter of minutes.
Does anyone have a cite for that? Or any similar reaction where the use of PTC drastically improves the rate of reaction? I've tried searching the web and Organic Syntheses but to no avail. My favorite online Organic Chemistry textbook doesn't mention it either. --Rifleman 82 02:15, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
Aurum sulfide, Aurum Sulfides
Could the many chemists here take a look at either these pages, and at the discussion at Talk:Aurum Sulfides? I've redirected the former to Gold chalcogenides, but the second article popped up and I've now placed a speedy tag as a hoax. --Rifleman 82 15:54, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
I find it distasteful dealing with such quack medicine, but perhaps it should redirect/move to aurum sulphuricum per Itub instead because it seems to be a sulfate and not a sulfide, unless it is supposed to be gold(III) sulfide (Aurum sulphuratum).[6] Unless homeopathic practitioners don't use the same sort of chemistry as we do. Oh, but their response is inversely proportional to the dose... --Rifleman 82 16:10, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

I wouldn't call these contibutions hoaxes: they seem to be a mixture of spam and honest misunderstanding. Gold sulfides are at best metastable, especially in the presence of water; gold selenides and tellurides are non-stoichiometric and metallic (Ref: Greenwood & Earnshaw).

Hydroxagen? and Hydroxycitric acid
The articles hydroxagen and hydroxycitric acid could use the attention of someone with chemistry knowledge.

Use Schott glassware?
Not directly related to the Chemistry Project, but Zwiesel Kristallglas AG has recently been up for AfD.

FlagSteward 14:14, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
"Elective Affinities"
The article titled Elective Affinities used to begin by saying Elective Affinities is a novel by Goethe, inspired perhaps by a concept in chemistry. The along came user:Sadi Carnot and rewrote it so that the first section of the article explains to the reader that "elective affinities" is a concept in chemistry, and doesn't even hint that there is a novel by that title. Except that the two words both begin with capitals---appropriate for a novel's title and inappropriate under Wikipedia's conventions for an article about a concept in chemistry---and it is italicized---also appropriate for a novel's title and inappropriate for an article about a concept in chemistry---and it is plural---also appropriate if the novel's title is plural and inappropriate under our conventions for an article about a concept in chemistry.
So the first section looks as if it's about chemistry and has a mis-formatted bolded title phrase. Then the second section talks about Goethe's novel and sociological theories. In an article about chemistry, any novel or any sociological theory inspired by it might rate a terse link to another article treating those topics---not a whole section taking up a major part of the article.
user:Sadi Carnot's edits are abusive to the reader.
So should we move the article to elective affinity and get rid of all mentions of Goethe except maybe a link, or should we replace the first section with an honest one saying what the article is about? Being ignorant of chemistry beyond the high-school level I hesitate to decide before hearing comments. Michael Hardy 22:09, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
That German version says right at the beginning that it's a novel. This version did not do that at all (now it does). Michael Hardy 01:06, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
Bonding pictures and resonance
The sulfur dioxide page has a bonding picture that shows two double bonds, which is not the generally "as taught" view. Similarly the illustrations of SO3 and the sulfate ion also show a single canonical. In contrast other articles have pictures with dotted bonds to show delocalisation, e.g. nitrogen dioxide. Firstly is there an agreed convention that we only illustrate a single canonical as implied in the SO2 discussion?
Personally, I have considerable sympathy with the criticisms made. To illustrate bonding with one canonical is questionable as it can mislead the reader and I believe we should generally show a dotted bond as this makes clear the extent of delocaisation and is VB/MO neutral so to speak. I suggest that
- where we have canonical illustrations already they are annotated and the article text makes it clear what is being shown
- if new canonical illustrations are introduced we pick a "conventional" uncontroversial canonical, (IMHO for SO2 and SO3, one where the octet is not expanded.)
The sulfate article (and phosphate) poses more of a problem, you either like to see a double bond and then term sulfur as hypervalent, or you don't. Axiosaurus 09:03, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
