  2. Coordinate covalent bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_covalent_bond

    In common usage, the prefix dipolar, dative or coordinate merely serves to indicate the origin of the electrons used in creating the bond. For example, F 3 B ← O(C 2 H 5) 2 ("boron trifluoride (diethyl) etherate") is prepared from BF 3 and :O(C 2 H 5) 2, as opposed to the radical species [•BF 3] – and [•O(C 2 H 5) 2] +.

  3. Covalent bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covalent_bond

    The oxygen molecule, O 2 can also be regarded as having two 3-electron bonds and one 2-electron bond, which accounts for its paramagnetism and its formal bond order of 2. [14] Chlorine dioxide and its heavier analogues bromine dioxide and iodine dioxide also contain three-electron bonds. Molecules with odd-electron bonds are usually highly ...

  4. Network covalent bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_covalent_bonding

    A network solid or covalent network solid (also called atomic crystalline solids or giant covalent structures) [1] [2] is a chemical compound (or element) in which the atoms are bonded by covalent bonds in a continuous network extending throughout the material.

  5. O'Neill cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O'Neill_cylinder

    An O'Neill cylinder (also called an O'Neill colony, or Island Three) is a space settlement concept proposed by American physicist Gerard K. O'Neill in his 1976 book The High Frontier: Human Colonies in Space. [1] O'Neill proposed the colonization of space for the 21st century, using materials extracted from the Moon and later from asteroids. [2]

  6. Carbon–oxygen bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon–oxygen_bond

    A carbon–oxygen bond is a polar covalent bond between atoms of carbon and oxygen. [1] [2] [3]: 16–22 Carbon–oxygen bonds are found in many inorganic compounds such as carbon oxides and oxohalides, carbonates and metal carbonyls, [4] and in organic compounds such as alcohols, ethers, and carbonyl compounds.

  7. Bent bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bent_bond

    One of the first bent bond theories for cyclopropane was the Coulson-Moffitt model (1947).. In organic chemistry, a bent bond, also known as a banana bond, is a type of covalent chemical bond with a geometry somewhat reminiscent of a banana.

  8. Linkage (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linkage_(mechanical)

    Variable stroke engine (Autocar Handbook, Ninth edition) A mechanical linkage is an assembly of systems connected so as to manage forces and movement.The movement of a body, or link, is studied using geometry so the link is considered to be rigid. [1]

  9. Covalent radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covalent_radius

    The covalent radius, r cov, is a measure of the size of an atom that forms part of one covalent bond.It is usually measured either in picometres (pm) or angstroms (Å), with 1 Å = 100 pm.
