DEF

A chemical compound having the formula C6H3(CH3) NH2]2 which appears under the form of white to reddish, glistening plates and is used in dyes, as a sensitive reagent for gold, a curing agent for urethane resins and for free chlorine in water.

OBS

The prefixes "ortho-," "meta-" and "para-," along with their corresponding abbreviations ("o-," "m-" and "p-"), appear in italics and are ignored in alphabetizing. According to the actual chemical nomenclature rules in organic chemistry (in 2003), the numbers designating the positions of the disubstitution groups (1,2- for "ortho-," 1,3- for "meta-" and 1,4- for "para-") are to be preferred to the symbols "o-," "m-" and "p-." Furthermore, the prefixes "ortho-," "meta-" and "para-" should not be used anymore, and their corresponding abbreviations ("o-," "m-," and "p-") will soon be judged to be avoided, if not totally condemned.

Les préfixes de position «ortho-», «méta-» et «para-», tout comme les abréviations correspondantes «o-», «m-» et «p-», s'écrivent en italique et n'interviennent pas dans une classification par ordre alphabétique. Selon les règles de nomenclature de chimie organique en vigueur aujourd'hui (en 2003), il est recommandé d'utiliser les chiffres 1,2-, 1,3- et 1,4-, respectivement. Les préfixes «ortho-», «méta-» et «para-» ne doivent plus être utilisés. L'usage des symboles correspondants («o-», «m-» et «p-») sera bientôt fortement déconseillé, sans être exclu.

Methyl orange is an intensely colored compound used in dyeing and printing textiles. It is also known as C. I. Acid Orange 52, C. I. 13025, helianthine B, Orange III, Gold orange, and Tropaeolin D. Chemists use methyl orange as an indicator in the titration of weak bases with strong acids. It changes from red(at pH 3. 1) to orange-yellow(at pH 4. 4).... Methyl orange is synthesized by reaction of sulfanilic acid, sodium nitrite, and dimethylaniline.

CONT

Electrolytic processes(...) fall into two groups : those using an aqueous electrolyte, and those using a fused salt electrolyte maintained at a high temperature. In both, the electrolyte contains a compound that dissociates into metallic ions that are positively charged and therefore move to, and are deposited on, the cathode.(...) Aqueous electrolysis is employed to refine most of the copper recovered by smelting and to produce lead, gold, silver and several less common metals in exceptionally pure form.

(...) l'électrolyse aqueuse (...) s'effectue tantôt avec des anodes insolubles et inattaquables, tantôt avec des anodes solubles. Dans le premier cas, le courant décompose la solution et précipite le métal ; dans le second, il y a transport du métal de l'anode à la cathode. L'électrolyse aqueuse (...) comporte de nombreuses applications industrielles en métallurgie : (...) affinage des métaux bruts (cuivre, plomb, métaux précieux), extraction de métaux purs.
