Stoichiometry & Chemical Reactions
Dimensionless
The addition of water across a multiple bond or the incorporation of water into a crystal lattice.

Hydrolysis
Stoichiometry & Chemical Reactions
Dimensionless
A reaction in which a bond is cleaved by water, with the H and OH fragments adding to the two products.
AB + H₂O → AOH + BH
