Q: Why other benzene derivatives do not undergo nitrosation

StarboySolomon and Fryhle $11 th$ ed : Most other benzene derivatives except phenols and tertiary aromatic amines do not undergo C- nitrosation reaction. I agree that if there is a primary or secondary aromatic amine, the reaction will follow other routes but in case of other activating substituents ...

Q: 2019 Potential Moderator Election Community Interest Check

JNatThis community last held an election in late 2016, so it's been a while... In addition to that, you may have noticed that one of the current mods — ManishEarth — is stepping down from their moderator position. While the remaining members of the moderation team don't feel an election to find a r...

@AvnishKabaj Too much time
I like thinking about chemistry, but if you see my house, my office, and my desk, you'll be able to tell that I don't do a good job "keeping house" so to speak

Q: Determination of solubility equilibrium using galvanic cell reactions

nh3This is the problem: We can determine the solubility equilibrium for silver bromide using cell: Ag (s) | AgNO3 (aq) || KBr (aq) | AgBr (s) | Ag (s) We know that: $\text{AgBr} + \text{e}^- \rightarrow \text{Ag} + \text{Br}^- \ \ \ \text{E}^0=0.095 \text{V}$ $\text{Ag}^+ + \text{e}^- \rightarr...

Q: Inorganic chemistry handbook with reaction lists

voffchThere is a handy handbook on common inorganic substances' properties called "Reactivity of Inorganic Substances" (eds. R. A. Lidin, V. A. Molochko, and L. L. Andreeva). It was originally written in Russian and then translated into English (see the review here). The entries in this handbook go lik...

Wow, we really have a lot of HNQs.

@orthocresol I wonder if the algorithm was adjusted to be with respect to Chem.SE. I can't imagine all of SE is seeing these posts in their feed.

Q: Is the differential, dp, exact or not?

Nicci Consider the differential $$\mathrm dp=\frac RV\,\mathrm dT+\left(\frac{2a}{V^2}-\frac{RT}{V^2}\right)\,\mathrm dV$$ (where $a$ is a constant value) (a) Determine whether the above differential, i.e. $\mathrm dp$, is exact or not. Show all your steps and evaluation of the appropriate part...

@A.K. Hmm, I suspect part of it has to do with the length of the HNQ list. If you look at stackexchange.com there are 120 questions on the "hot" list. So from this perspective, HNQs are not limited to the ones in the sidebar (30 or so?). But I don't know the inner workings of HNQs very well.
@Hotnitricacid(HNQ) For example, this is number 60 on the list (right now).
Also, isn't "hot nitric acid" HNA?
HNQ always reminded me of HNO_3

But feel free to change the name if you have a better idea.
Ah, I see ;)
Q is a bit of a difficult letter to use...
All I can come up with now is Qatar.

@orthocresol Hot nitro-quinone
or quinoline
Hydroxy nitro quinoline?
23:31
Hot nitroquinone sounds like the sort of thing which you could get helium gas to act as a nucleophile towards.
