A compound formed by the union of water with some other substance, generally forming a neutral body, as certain crystallized salts.
A substance which does not contain water as such, but has its constituents (hydrogen, oxygen, hydroxyl) so arranged that water may be eliminated; hence, a derivative of, or compound with, hydroxyl; hydroxide; as, ethyl hydrate, or common alcohol; calcium hydrate, or slaked lime.
To form into a hydrate; to combine with water.
An aluminum oxide with three molecules of chemically combined water.
To absorb water and construct it as part of the crystal lattice.
Compound which contains water molecules as a part of its structure and composition
Compare with addition compound. A hydrate is an addition compound that contains water in weak chemical combination with another compound. For example, crystals of CuSO4ยท5 H2O (copper sulfate pentahydrate) are made of regularly repeating units, each containing 5 molecules of water weakly bound to a copper(II) ion and a sulfate ion.
() to meet the body's water requirements
any compound that contains water of crystallization
supply water or liquid to in order to maintain a healthy balance; "the bicyclists must be hydrated frequently"
become hydrated and combine with water
a chemical that has water molecules loosely bonded to it
a compound, in definite proportions, of a metallic oxide with water
A mineral formed by the combination of water and some other elements or compounds.
A compound formed by the incorporation of water.
A crystalline solid with molecules of water trapped in the solid state structure, which can often be removed partly or completely by relatively gentle heating.
A solid ice-like material resulting from the combination of a gas with water under pressure. Of natural gas constituents -- methane, ethane, propane, isobutane, normal butane, and also hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide will form hydrates. The greater the pressure in the equipment, the higher the temperature at which the hydrate will form, usually well above freezing. Hydrates can cause restriction or stoppage of flow, and can be controlled by alcohol injection or by dehydration of the gas. Methane hydrates are found in some permafrost regions and beneath portions of the ocean floor and may eventually be a source of methane gas.
A compound involving water. Clay is hydrate because there is water chemically combined in its crystals.
Crystallized substance that contains water of hydration.
a hydrocarbon and water compound that is formed under reduced temperature and pressure in gathering, compression, and transmission facilities for gas. Hydrates often accumulate in troublesome amounts and impede fluid flow. They resemble snow or ice.
A compound produced when certain substances chemically combine with water.
A solid compound that contains a definite percentage of bound water.
(1) A chemical compound of water and gaseous hydrocarbons, or hydrogen sulfide. Similar to porous snow in appearance, this solid has a specific gravity close to that of water. Accumulation of hydrates in pipelines and processing equipment results in freeze ups, a considerable source of trouble.(2) A substance containing water combined in the molecular form, such as CaSO4.2H2O.
A substance formed by combining water with a compound.
Hydrate is a term which means different things in inorganic chemistry and organic chemistry. To put it simply, it just means that whatever you have contains water.
