  2. Linear span - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_span

    In mathematics, the linear span (also called the linear hull [1] or just span) of a set of elements of a vector space is the smallest linear subspace of that contains . It is the set of all finite linear combinations of the elements of S , [ 2 ] and the intersection of all linear subspaces that contain S . {\displaystyle S.}

  3. Block (periodic table) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_(periodic_table)

    However, they remain d-block elements even when considered to be main group. Groups (columns) in the f-block (between groups 2 and 3) are not numbered. Helium is an s-block element, with its outer (and only) electrons in the 1s atomic orbital, although its chemical properties are more similar to the p-block noble gases in group 18 due to its ...

  4. Extended periodic table - Wikipedia

    [19] [20] In his second suggestion (2016), elements 121–142 form a g-block (as they have 5g activity), while elements 143–156 form an f-block placed under actinium through nobelium. [21] Kulsha's first suggested form Kulsha's second suggested form. Thus, period 8 emerges with 54 elements, and the next noble element after 118 is 172. [22]

  5. Lattice (group) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_(group)

    A pattern with this lattice of translational symmetry cannot have more, but may have less symmetry than the lattice itself. [1] As a group (dropping its geometric structure) a lattice is a finitely-generated free abelian group , and thus isomorphic to Z n {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} ^{n}} .

    A chemical element in its smallest form, made up of protons and neutrons within the nucleus and electrons circling the nucleus. An atom with protons, neutrons, and electrons labelled atomic mass The mass of an atom, typically expressed in daltons and nearly equivalent to the mass number multiplied by one dalton. atomic mass unit See dalton ...

  7. Structural formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_formula

    Skeletal structural formula of Vitamin B 12.Many organic molecules are too complicated to be specified by a molecular formula.. The structural formula of a chemical compound is a graphic representation of the molecular structure (determined by structural chemistry methods), showing how the atoms are connected to one another. [1]

  8. Tensile structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensile_structure

    Most tensile structures are supported by some form of compression or bending elements, such as masts (as in The O 2, formerly the Millennium Dome), compression rings or beams. A tensile membrane structure is most often used as a roof, as they can economically and attractively span large distances. Tensile membrane structures may also be used as ...

  9. Allotropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allotropy

    Diamond and graphite are two allotropes of carbon: pure forms of the same element that differ in crystalline structure.. Allotropy or allotropism (from Ancient Greek ἄλλος (allos) 'other' and τρόπος (tropos) 'manner, form') is the property of some chemical elements to exist in two or more different forms, in the same physical state, known as allotropes of the elements.
