  2. Transition metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transition_metal

    The period 6 and 7 transition metals also add core (n − 2)f 14 electrons, which are omitted from the tables below. The p orbitals are almost never filled in free atoms (the one exception being lawrencium due to relativistic effects that become important at such high Z), but they can contribute to the chemical bonding in transition metal ...

  3. Isomorphism (crystallography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isomorphism_(crystallography)

    Forsterite. In chemistry, isomorphism has meanings both at the level of crystallography and at a molecular level. In crystallography, crystals are isomorphous if they have identical symmetry and if the atomic positions can be described with a set of parameters (unit cell dimensions and fractional coordinates) whose numerical values differ only slightly.

  4. Reactivity series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactivity_series

    2 Na (s) + 2 H 2 O (l) →2 NaOH (aq) + H 2 (g) Metals in the middle of the reactivity series, such as iron, will react with acids such as sulfuric acid (but not water at normal temperatures) to give hydrogen and a metal salt, such as iron(II) sulfate: Fe (s) + H 2 SO 4 (l) → FeSO 4 (aq) + H 2 (g) There is some ambiguity at the borderlines ...

  5. Heteropolymetalate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heteropolymetalate

    Heteropolymetalates: K 5 [IMo 6 O 24]·nH 2 O Ag 7 [PV 12 O 36]·nH 2 O (NH 4) 4 [NiMo 6 O 24 H 6]·5H 2 O K 3 [CrMo 6 O 24 H 6]·nH 2 O (NH 4) 8 [CeMo 12 O 42]·8H 2 O. In chemistry, the heteropolymetalates are a subset of the polyoxometalates, which consist of three or more transition metal oxyanions linked together by shared oxygen atoms to form a closed 3-dimensional molecular framework.

  6. Cross-coupling reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-coupling_reaction

    In organic chemistry, a cross-coupling reaction is a reaction where two different fragments are joined. Cross-couplings are a subset of the more general coupling reactions. Often cross-coupling reactions require metal catalyst

  7. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    Periodic table of the chemical elements showing the most or more commonly named sets of elements (in periodic tables), and a traditional dividing line between metals and nonmetals. The f-block actually fits between groups 2 and 3 ; it is usually shown at the foot of the table to save horizontal space.

  8. Valence electron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valence_electron

    However, transition elements have (n−1)d energy levels that are very close in energy to the n s level. [2] So as opposed to main-group elements, a valence electron for a transition metal is defined as an electron that resides outside a noble-gas core. [3] Thus, generally, the d electrons in transition metals behave as valence electrons ...

  9. Crystal polymorphism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_polymorphism

    Phase transitions (phase changes) that help describe polymorphism include polymorphic transitions as well as melting and vaporization transitions. According to IUPAC, a polymorphic transition is "A reversible transition of a solid crystalline phase at a certain temperature and pressure (the inversion point) to another phase of the same chemical composition with a different crystal structure."
