Siricata suricatta is a small mammal found in the mongoose family. The other name they are somtimes refered to is Suricates. Meerkats inhabit all parts in the Kalahari Desert in Botswana and South Africa. Meerkats got their name from a name meaning 'loaword' from Afrikaans language. meerkat is a small diurnal herpestid(mongoose). Males weigh 731 grams(1.61 pounds) while females weigh 720 grams(1.58 pounds). It has a long slender body and limbs give it a body length of 25 to 35 cm(10 to 14 inches) and with a tail length of 17 to 25 cm(7 to 10 inches).
Enthalpy /ËÉnÎ¸Élpi/ (Symbol: H) is a measurement of energy in a thermodynamic system. It is the thermodynamic quantity equivalent to the total heat content of a system. It is equal to the internal energy of the system plus the product of pressure and volume.
Yes, the enthalpy of hydration is always negative. Hydration enthalpy is the energy released when 1 mol of a substance is dissolved in a solvent. It is always negative, as bonds (e.g. dative, ion-dipole) are being formed. When the solvent is other than water, the process is referred to as solvation. The enthalpy of hydration is equal to the sum of three different energy transfer processes 1  : the lattice energy.  the enthalpy of hydration of the cation.
