  2. Halogen bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogen_bond

    Most biological macromolecules contain few or no halogen atoms. But when molecules do contain halogens, halogen bonds are often essential to understanding molecular conformation. Computational studies suggest that known halogenated nucleobases form halogen bonds with oxygen, nitrogen, or sulfur in vitro.

  3. Halogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogen

    The group of halogens is the only periodic table group that contains elements in three of the main states of matter at standard temperature and pressure, though not far above room temperature the same becomes true of groups 1 and 15, assuming white phosphorus is taken as the standard state. [n 1] All of the halogens form acids when bonded to ...

  4. Bond energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_energy

    It is sometimes called the mean bond, bond enthalpy, average bond enthalpy, or bond strength. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] IUPAC defines bond energy as the average value of the gas-phase bond-dissociation energy (usually at a temperature of 298.15 K) for all bonds of the same type within the same chemical species.

  5. Enthalpy change of solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enthalpy_change_of_solution

    The enthalpy of solution is most often expressed in kJ/mol at constant temperature. The energy change can be regarded as being made up of three parts: the endothermic breaking of bonds within the solute and within the solvent, and the formation of attractions between the solute and the solvent.

  6. Properties of nonmetals (and metalloids) by group - Wikipedia

    2, and is remarkable in having direct chemical bonds between two notoriously unreactive atoms, xenon and gold, with xenon acting as a transition metal ligand. The compound Xe 2 Sb 2 F 11 contains a Xe–Xe bond, the longest element-element bond known (308.71 pm = 3.0871 Å). The most common oxide of xenon (XeO 3) is strongly acidic.

  7. Bond-dissociation energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond-dissociation_energy

    The term bond-dissociation energy is similar to the related notion of bond-dissociation enthalpy (or bond enthalpy), which is sometimes used interchangeably.However, some authors make the distinction that the bond-dissociation energy (D 0) refers to the enthalpy change at 0 K, while the term bond-dissociation enthalpy is used for the enthalpy change at 298 K (unambiguously denoted DH° 298).

  8. Hume-Rothery rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hume-Rothery_rules

    Fundamentally, the Hume-Rothery rules are restricted to binary systems that form either substitutional or interstitial solid solutions. However, this approach limits assessing advanced alloys which are commonly multicomponent systems. Free energy diagrams (or phase diagrams) offer in-depth knowledge of equilibrium restraints in complex systems.

  9. Homolysis (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homolysis_(chemistry)

    BDE is defined as the "enthalpy (per mole) required to break a given bond of some specific molecular entity by homolysis," symbolized as D. [3] BDE is dependent on the strength of the bond, which is determined by factors relating to the stability of the resulting radical species .
