  2. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    [1] [2] [3] Introduced by Gilbert N. Lewis in his 1916 article The Atom and the Molecule, a Lewis structure can be drawn for any covalently bonded molecule, as well as coordination compounds. [4] Lewis structures extend the concept of the electron dot diagram by adding lines between atoms to represent shared pairs in a chemical bond.

  3. Cyano radical - Wikipedia

    [4] [5] In 1970, • CN's first rotational transition from J = 0 to J = 1 was detected In the Orion Nebula and the W51 nebula. [6] The first detection of • CN in extragalactic sources were seen toward Sculptor Galaxy (NGC 253), IC 342, and M82 In 1988. These emission lines seen were from N = 1 to N = 0 and N = 2 to N = 1.

  4. Tetracyanomethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetracyanomethane

    Tetracyanomethane or carbon tetracyanide is an organic compound with the chemical formula C(CN) 4. It is a percyanoalkane. It is a molecular carbon nitride. The structure can be considered as methane with all hydrogen atoms replaced by cyanide groups. It was first made by Erwin Mayer in 1969. [2] [3]

    Portion of lattice of [Te 6](O 3 SCF 3) 2. The intra- and inter-triangle Te–Te distances are 2.70 and 3.06 Å, respectively. [1] Hexamethyltungsten (W(CH 3) 6) was the first example of a molecular trigonal prismatic complex. [2] The figure shows the six carbon atoms arranged at the vertices of a triangular prism with the tungsten at the centre.

  6. Carbon–nitrogen bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon–nitrogen_bond

    A CN bond is strongly polarized towards nitrogen (the electronegativities of C and N are 2.55 and 3.04, respectively) and subsequently molecular dipole moments can be high: cyanamide 4.27 D, diazomethane 1.5 D, methyl azide 2.17, pyridine 2.19. For this reason many compounds containing CN bonds are water-soluble.

  7. Oxidation state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidation_state

    This algorithm is performed on a Lewis structure (a diagram that shows all valence electrons). Oxidation state equals the charge of an atom after each of its heteronuclear bonds has been assigned to the more electronegative partner of the bond ( except when that partner is a reversibly bonded Lewis-acid ligand ) and homonuclear bonds have been ...

  8. Cyanate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanate

    The cyanate ion is a Lewis base. ... a = 5.474 b = 6.378 c = 3.417 ... In N-bonded cyanate complexes the M−NCO unit sometimes has a linear structure, ...

  9. Coordination number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordination_number

    Co(NH 3) 6] 3+, which features 6-coordinate metal centre with octahedral molecular geometry. Chloro(triphenylphosphine)gold(I) , which features 2-coordinate metal centre. In chemistry, coordination number , defined originally in 1893 by Alfred Werner , is the total number of neighbors of a central atom in a molecule or ion.
