  2. Structural formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_formula

    Wavy single bonds represent unknown or unspecified stereochemistry or a mixture of isomers. For example, the adjacent diagram shows the fructose molecule with a wavy bond to the HOCH 2 - group at the left. In this case the two possible ring structures are in chemical equilibrium with each other and also with the open-chain structure.

    Symbols for chemical elements shall be written in roman (upright) type. The symbol is not followed by a full-stop. Examples: H He C Ca. Attached subscripts or superscripts specifying a nucleotide or molecule have the following meanings and positions: The nucleon number (mass number) is shown in the left superscript position (e.g., 14 N)

  4. Chemical symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_symbol

    Chemical symbols are the abbreviations used in chemistry, mainly for chemical elements; but also for functional groups, chemical compounds, and other entities. Element symbols for chemical elements, also known as atomic symbols , normally consist of one or two letters from the Latin alphabet and are written with the first letter capitalised.

    Bond direction symbols always come in groups of at least two, of which the first is arbitrary. That is, F\C=C\F is the same as F/C=C/F. When alternating single-double bonds are present, the groups are larger than two, with the middle directional symbols being adjacent to two double bonds.

    Standard symbol Definition Named after Field of application Abbe number: V = Ernst Abbe: optics (dispersion in optical materials) f-number: N = optics, photography (ratio of focal length to diameter of aperture) Fresnel number: F

    For example, a C 2 rotation followed by a σ v reflection is seen to be a σ v ' symmetry operation: σ v *C 2 = σ v '. ("Operation A followed by B to form C " is written BA = C ). [ 9 ] Moreover, the set of all symmetry operations (including this composition operation) obeys all the properties of a group, given above.

  8. Electron configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_configuration

    The molecular orbitals are labelled according to their symmetry, [e] rather than the atomic orbital labels used for atoms and monatomic ions; hence, the electron configuration of the dioxygen molecule, O 2, is written 1σ g 2 1σ u 2 2σ g 2 2σ u 2 3σ g 2 1π u 4 1π g 2, [39] [40] or equivalently 1σ g 2 1σ u 2 2σ g 2 2σ u 2 1π u 4 3σ g ...

    Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acid–base extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...
