  2. Ozone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozone

    Ozone (/ ˈ oʊ z oʊ n /) (or trioxygen) is an inorganic molecule with the chemical formula O 3.It is a pale blue gas with a distinctively pungent smell. It is an allotrope of oxygen that is much less stable than the diatomic allotrope O

  3. Lewis acids and bases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_acids_and_bases

    The E and C parameters refer, respectively, to the electrostatic and covalent contributions to the strength of the bonds that the acid and base will form. The equation is −ΔH = E A E B + C A C B + W. The W term represents a constant energy contribution for acidbase reaction such as the cleavage of a dimeric acid or base.

  4. Acid strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_strength

    Acid strength is the tendency of an acid, symbolised by the chemical formula, to dissociate into a proton, +, and an anion, .The dissociation or ionization of a strong acid in solution is effectively complete, except in its most concentrated solutions.

    40) and octadecamolybdophosphoric acid (H 6 P 2 Mo 18 O 62). Oxygen can form oxides with heavier noble gases xenon and radon, although this needs indirect methods. Even though no oxides of krypton are known, oxygen is able to form covalent bonds with krypton in an unstable compound Kr(OTeF 5) 2.

  6. Base (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_(chemistry)

    A strong base is a basic chemical compound that can remove a proton (H +) from (or deprotonate) a molecule of even a very weak acid (such as water) in an acidbase reaction. Common examples of strong bases include hydroxides of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals, like NaOH and Ca(OH) 2, respectively. Due to their low solubility, some ...

  7. Chemical bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_bond

    A strong chemical bond is formed from the transfer or sharing of electrons between atomic centers and relies on the electrostatic attraction between the protons in nuclei and the electrons in the orbitals. The types of strong bond differ due to the difference in electronegativity of the constituent elements.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSAB_theory

    The E and C parameters refer, respectively, to the electrostatic and covalent contributions to the strength of the bonds that the acid and base will form. The equation is -ΔH = E A E B + C A C B + W. The W term represents a constant energy contribution for acidbase reaction such as the cleavage of a dimeric acid or base.

  9. Oxyanion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxyanion

    It is an example of an acidbase reaction with the monomeric oxyanion acting as a base and the condensed oxyanion acting as its conjugate acid. The reverse reaction is a hydrolysis reaction, as a water molecule, acting as a base, is split. Further condensation may occur, particularly with anions of higher charge, as occurs with adenosine ...
