Individual Reactions

(C₄H₁₀N⁺ • ) +  = (C₄H₁₀N⁺ • 2)

By formula: (C₄H₁₀N⁺ • C₄H₉N) + C₄H₉N = (C₄H₁₀N⁺ • 2C₄H₉N)

C₄H₁₀N⁺ +  = (C₄H₁₀N⁺ • )

By formula: C₄H₁₀N⁺ + C₄H₉N = (C₄H₁₀N⁺ • C₄H₉N)

3 +  = 3

By formula: 3H₂ + C₁₂H₂₁N₃ = 3C₄H₉N

Henry's Law constant (water solution)

k_H(T) = k°_H exp(d(ln(k_H))/d(1/T) ((1/T) - 1/(298.15 K)))
k°_H = Henry's law constant for solubility in water at 298.15 K (mol/(kg*bar))
d(ln(k_H))/d(1/T) = Temperature dependence constant (K)
