  2. List of superseded scientific theories - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_superseded...

    Energeticism – a theory that attempted to reinterpret all chemistry in terms of energy, rejecting the concept of atoms. Caloric theory – the theory that a self-repelling fluid called "caloric" was the substance of heat. Rendered obsolete by the mechanical theory of heat.

  3. Ammonia - Wikipedia

    Apart from these remarkable solutions, much of the chemistry in liquid ammonia can be classified by analogy with related reactions in aqueous solutions. Comparison of the physical properties of NH 3 with those of water shows NH 3 has the lower melting point, boiling point, density, viscosity , dielectric constant and electrical conductivity .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleventh_grade

    In India, the 11th Grade is the first year of higher secondary education and is often considered the third year of high school (Higher/Senior Secondary School or Senior High School). It is commonly known as "Class 11" or "Plus 1" (derived from "10+1") and, in some states, as the first year of Junior College (Intermediate or Pre-University Course).

  6. Chemistry education - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemistry_education

    Chemistry education is important because the field of chemistry is fundamental to our world. The universe is subject to the laws of chemistry, while human beings depend on the orderly progress of chemical reactions within their bodies. [2] Described as the central science, chemistry connects physical sciences with the life sciences and applied ...

  7. Spin–orbit interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin–orbit_interaction

    Fine and hyperfine structure in hydrogen (not to scale). This section presents a relatively simple and quantitative description of the spin–orbit interaction for an electron bound to a hydrogen-like atom, up to first order in perturbation theory, using some semiclassical electrodynamics and non-relativistic quantum mechanics.

  8. Question answering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Question_answering

    Task 1: "Answer retrieval" matching old post answers to newly posed questions, and Task 2: "Formula retrieval" matching old post formulae to new questions. Starting with the domain of mathematics, which involves formula language, the goal is to later extend the task to other domains (e.g., STEM disciplines, such as chemistry, biology, etc ...

  9. Scientific writing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_writing

    Nobel Prize-winning chemist Roald Hoffmann has stated that, in the chemical sciences, drawing chemistry is as fundamental as writing chemistry. [27] Different types of citation and reference systems are used in scientific papers. The specific citation style scientific articles use depends on the journal in which the article is published.
