Sentences with phrase «sodium chloride lattices»

When they modeled heat flow between two sodium chloride lattices, the researchers found that heat flowed from one lattice to the other via phonon tunneling, at gaps of one nanometer and smaller.

When, however, an ionic compound such as sodium chloride (NaCl) dissolves in water, the sodium chloride lattice dissociates into separate ions which are solvated (wrapped) with a coating of water molecules.

Not exact matches

The researchers used the model to predict heat flow between two lattices of sodium chloride, or table salt, separated by a nanometer - wide gap.

For example, their structure of sodium chloride and those of related alkaloid salts revealed that crystals could be made up of repeating atomic lattices rather than molecular ones.
