  2. Cyanogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanogen

    Cyanogen is the chemical compound with the formula (C N) 2. The simplest stable carbon nitride, it is a colorless and highly toxic gas with a pungent odor. The molecule is a pseudohalogen. Cyanogen molecules consist of two CN groups ‒ analogous to diatomic halogen molecules, such as Cl 2, but far less oxidizing.

  3. Empirical formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empirical_formula

    Glucose (C 6 H 12 O 6), ribose (C 5 H 10 O 5), Acetic acid (C 2 H 4 O 2), and formaldehyde (CH 2 O) all have different molecular formulas but the same empirical formula: CH 2 O.This is the actual molecular formula for formaldehyde, but acetic acid has double the number of atoms, ribose has five times the number of atoms, and glucose has six times the number of atoms.

  4. Xylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylene

    In organic chemistry, xylene or xylol (from Greek ξύλον (xylon) 'wood'; [1] [2] IUPAC name: dimethylbenzene) are any of three organic compounds with the formula (CH 3) 2 C 6 H 4. They are derived from the substitution of two hydrogen atoms with methyl groups in a benzene ring; which hydrogens are substituted determines which of three ...

  5. Formula unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formula_unit

    In most cases the formula representing a formula unit will also be an empirical formula, such as calcium carbonate (CaCO 3) or sodium chloride (NaCl), but it is not always the case. For example, the ionic compounds potassium persulfate ( K 2 S 2 O 8 ), mercury(I) nitrate Hg 2 (NO 3 ) 2 , and sodium peroxide Na 2 O 2 , have empirical formulas of ...

  6. Chemical formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_formula

    An example of the difference is the empirical formula for glucose, which is CH 2 O (ratio 1:2:1), while its molecular formula is C 6 H 12 O 6 (number of atoms 6:12:6). For water, both formulae are H 2 O. A molecular formula provides more information about a molecule than its empirical formula, but is more difficult to establish.

  7. Reactive empirical bond order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactive_empirical_bond_order

    The reactive empirical bond-order (REBO) model is a function for calculating the potential energy of covalent bonds and the interatomic force.In this model, the total potential energy of system is a sum of nearest-neighbour pair interactions which depend not only on the distance between atoms but also on their local atomic environment.

  8. Viscosity models for mixtures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity_models_for_mixtures

    The gas viscosity model of Chung et alios (1988) [5] is combination of the Chapman–Enskog(1964) kinetic theory of viscosity for dilute gases and the empirical expression of Neufeld et alios (1972) [6] for the reduced collision integral, but expanded empirical to handle polyatomic, polar and hydrogen bonding fluids over a wide temperature ...

  9. Formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formula

    A molecular formula enumerates the number of atoms to reflect those in the molecule, so that the molecular formula for glucose is C 6 H 12 O 6 rather than the glucose empirical formula, which is CH 2 O. Except for the very simple substances, molecular chemical formulas generally lack needed structural information, and might even be ambiguous in ...
