This lists the character tables for the more common molecular point groups used in the study of molecular symmetry. These tables are based on the group-theoretical treatment of the symmetry operations present in common molecules, and are useful in molecular spectroscopy and quantum chemistry. Information regarding the use of the tables, as well ...
Zinc phosphide (Zn 3 P 2) is an inorganic chemical compound.It is a grey solid, although commercial samples are often dark or even black. It is used as a rodenticide. [5] Zn 3 P 2 is a II-V semiconductor with a direct band gap of 1.5 eV [6] and may have applications in photovoltaic cells. [7]
Quantities, Units and Symbols in Physical Chemistry, also known as the Green Book, is a compilation of terms and symbols widely used in the field of physical chemistry. It also includes a table of physical constants , tables listing the properties of elementary particles , chemical elements , and nuclides , and information about conversion ...
A process to apply zinc pyrithione to cotton with washable results was patented in the United States in 1984. [12] Zinc pyrithione is used to prevent microbe growth in polyester. [13] Textiles with applied zinc pyrithione protect against odor-causing microorganisms. Export of antimicrobial textiles reached US$497.4 million in 2015. [14]
[1] [2] In physical and analytical chemistry, infrared spectroscopy (IR spectroscopy) is a technique used to identify chemical compounds based on the way infrared radiation is absorbed by the compound. The absorptions in this range do not apply only to bonds in organic molecules.
Zinc oxide, ZnO, is the most important manufactured compound of zinc, with a wide variety of uses. [2] It crystallizes with the Wurtzite structure. It is amphoteric, dissolving in acids to give the aqueous Zn 2+ ion and in alkali to give the zincate (a.k.a. tetrahydroxozincate) ion, [Zn(OH) 4] 2−. Zinc hydroxide, Zn(OH) 2 is also amphoteric.
Zinc bromide solutions can be used as a transparent shield against radiation. The space between two glass panes is filled with a strong aqueous solution of zinc bromide with a very high density, to be used as a window on a hot cell. This type of window has the advantage over lead glass in that it will not darken as a result of exposure to ...
Zinc nitrate has no large scale application but is used on a laboratory scale for the synthesis of coordination polymers. [4] Its controlled decomposition to zinc oxide has also been used for the generation of various ZnO based structures, including nanowires. [5] It can be used as a mordant in dyeing.
