  2. Period 6 element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Period_6_element

    A period 6 element is one of the chemical elements in the sixth row (or period) of the periodic table of the chemical elements, including the lanthanides.The periodic table is laid out in rows to illustrate recurring (periodic) trends in the chemical behaviour of the elements as their atomic number increases: a new row is begun when chemical behaviour begins to repeat, meaning that elements ...

    Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acid–base extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...

  5. Complete Idiot's Guides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complete_Idiot's_Guides

    The term "idiot" is used as hyperbole, to reassure readers that the guides will be basic and comprehensible, even if the topics seem intimidating. The approach relies on explaining a topic step-by-step, using basic terminology, definitions of words, and profiles of people.

  6. Sextic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sextic_equation

    Watt's curve, which arose in the context of early work on the steam engine, is a sextic in two variables.. One method of solving the cubic equation involves transforming variables to obtain a sextic equation having terms only of degrees 6, 3, and 0, which can be solved as a quadratic equation in the cube of the variable.

  7. Six-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six-dimensional_space

    These quaternion are unique, up to a change in sign for both of them, and generate all rotations when used this way, so the product of their groups, S 3 × S 3, is a double cover of SO(4), which must have six dimensions. Although the space we live in is considered three-dimensional, there are practical applications for four-dimensional space.

  9. Branches of science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branches_of_science

    Physical science is an encompassing term for the branches of natural science that study non-living systems, in contrast to the life sciences. However, the term "physical" creates an unintended, somewhat arbitrary distinction, since many branches of physical science also study biological phenomena.
