  2. Chemical bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_bond

    A chemical bond is the association of atoms or ions to form molecules, crystals, and other structures. The bond may result from the electrostatic force between oppositely charged ions as in ionic bonds or through the sharing of electrons as in covalent bonds, or some combination of these effects.

  3. Markov chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markov_chain

    In current research, it is common to use a Markov chain to model how once a country reaches a specific level of economic development, the configuration of structural factors, such as size of the middle class, the ratio of urban to rural residence, the rate of political mobilization, etc., will generate a higher probability of transitioning from ...

  4. 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 possibly arranged in the real three-dimensional space.

  5. Molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_geometry

    Molecular geometries can be specified in terms of 'bond lengths', 'bond angles' and 'torsional angles'. The bond length is defined to be the average distance between the nuclei of two atoms bonded together in any given molecule. A bond angle is the angle formed between three atoms across at least two bonds.

  6. Structural chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_chemistry

    Structural chemistry is a part of chemistry and deals with spatial structures of molecules (in the gaseous, liquid or solid state) and solids (with extended structures that cannot be subdivided into molecules). For structure elucidation [1] a range of different methods is used.

  7. Molecular binding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_binding

    Molecular binding is an attractive interaction between two molecules that results in a stable association in which the molecules are in close proximity to each other. It is formed when atoms or molecules bind together by sharing of electrons.

  8. Double bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_bond

    In chemistry, a double bond is a covalent bond between two atoms involving four bonding electrons as opposed to two in a single bond. Double bonds occur most commonly between two carbon atoms, for example in alkenes. Many double bonds exist between two different elements: for example, in a carbonyl group

  9. Single bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_bond

    Note depiction of the single bond. Lewis structure for methane. Note depiction of the four single bonds between the carbon and hydrogen atoms. Lewis structure for an alkane . Note that all the bonds are single covalent bonds. In chemistry, a single bond is a chemical bond between two atoms involving two valence electrons.
