  2. Derivative (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    In chemistry, a derivative is a compound that is derived from a similar compound by a chemical reaction.. In the past, derivative also meant a compound that can be imagined to arise from another compound, if one atom or group of atoms is replaced with another atom or group of atoms, [1] but modern chemical language now uses the term structural analog for this meaning, thus eliminating ambiguity.

  3. Interoception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interoception

    Interoception is involved in many different physiological systems like the cardiorespiratory system, gastrointestinal system, nociceptive system, endocrine and immune systems. Interoception is the collection of senses providing information to the organism about the internal state of the body. [1] This can be both conscious and subconscious.

  4. Optical rotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_rotation

    Dextrorotation and laevorotation (also spelled levorotation) [1] [2] in chemistry and physics are the optical rotation of plane-polarized light.From the point of view of the observer, dextrorotation refers to clockwise or right-handed rotation, and laevorotation refers to counterclockwise or left-handed rotation.

  5. Liquid junction potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_junction_potential

    The most common method of eliminating the liquid junction potential is to place a salt bridge consisting of a saturated solution of potassium chloride (KCl) and ammonium nitrate (NH 4 NO 3) with lithium acetate (CH 3 COOLi) between the two solutions constituting the junction. When such a bridge is used, the ions in the bridge are present in ...

  6. Enantiomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enantiomer

    There are three common naming conventions for specifying one of the two enantiomers (the absolute configuration) of a given chiral molecule: the R/S system is based on the geometry of the molecule; the (+)- and (−)- system (also written using the obsolete equivalents d- and l-) is based on its optical rotation properties; and the D/L system is based on the molecule's relationship to ...

  7. Stereoisomerism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoisomerism

    A Fischer projection can be used to differentiate between L- and D- molecules Chirality (chemistry). For instance, by definition, in a Fischer projection the penultimate carbon of D-sugars are depicted with hydrogen on the left and hydroxyl on the right. L-sugars will be shown with the hydrogen on the right and the hydroxyl on the left.

  8. 'Lessons In Chemistry': Differences Between the Book and Show

    Lessons in Chemistry is finally on AppleTV+, which means fans of Bonnie Garmus’ bestselling novel are on the lookout for any and all ways the show is different from its beloved source material.

  9. Molecular orbital - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_orbital

    In hydrogen fluoride HF overlap between the H 1s and F 2s orbitals is allowed by symmetry but the difference in energy between the two atomic orbitals prevents them from interacting to create a molecular orbital. Overlap between the H 1s and F 2p z orbitals is also symmetry allowed, and these two atomic orbitals have a small energy separation ...
