  2. Fluorine compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorine_compounds

    The F 2 molecule is commonly described as having exactly one bond (in other words, a bond order of 1) provided by one p electron per atom, as are other halogen X 2 molecules. However, the heavier halogens' p electron orbitals partly mix with those of d orbitals, which results in an increased effective bond order; for example, chlorine has a ...

  3. Double bond rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_bond_rule

    Moreover, the multiple bonds of the elements with n=2 are much stronger than usual, because lone pair repulsion weakens their sigma bonding but not their pi bonding. [2] An example is the rapid polymerization that occurs upon condensation of disulfur , the heavy analogue of O 2 .

  4. 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.

  5. Molecule - Wikipedia

    The simplest of molecules is the hydrogen molecule-ion, H 2 +, and the simplest of all the chemical bonds is the one-electron bond. H 2 + is composed of two positively charged protons and one negatively charged electron , which means that the Schrödinger equation for the system can be solved more easily due to the lack of electron–electron ...

  6. Thrombin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrombin

    Thrombin (Factor IIa) (EC 3.4.21.5, fibrose, thrombase, thrombofort, topical, thrombin-C, tropostasin, activated blood-coagulation factor II, E thrombin, beta-thrombin, gamma-thrombin) is a serine protease, that converts fibrinogen into strands of insoluble fibrin, as well as catalyzing many other coagulation-related reactions.

    2 and similar to the easily cleaved peroxide bond; this, along with high electronegativity, accounts for fluorine's easy dissociation, high reactivity, and strong bonds to non-fluorine atoms. [ 21 ] [ 22 ] Conversely, bonds to other atoms are very strong because of fluorine's high electronegativity.

  8. Biomolecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biomolecule

    Biomolecules and their reactions are studied in biology and its subfields of biochemistry and molecular biology. Most biomolecules are organic compounds, and just four elements—oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen—make up 96% of the human body's mass. But many other elements, such as the various biometals, are also present in small amounts.

  9. Oxygen difluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_difluoride

    2 OF 2 → O 2 + 2 F 2. OF 2 reacts with many metals to yield oxides and fluorides. Nonmetals also react: phosphorus reacts with OF 2 to form PF 5 and POF 3; sulfur gives SO 2 and SF 4; and unusually for a noble gas, xenon reacts (at elevated temperatures) yielding XeF 4 and xenon oxyfluorides. Oxygen difluoride reacts with water to form ...
