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 ...
per-through Latin per, through, by means of percutaneous peri-denoting something with a position 'surrounding' or 'around' another Greek περῐ́ (perí), around, about, concerning periodontal-pexy: fixation Greek πῆξις (pêxis), fixing in place, fastening nephropexy: phaco-lens-shaped Greek φᾰκός (phakós), lentil-bean
If four oxyanions are possible, the prefixes hypo-and per-are used: hypochlorite is ClO −, perchlorate is ClO − 4. The prefix bi-is a deprecated way of indicating the presence of a single hydrogen ion, as in "sodium bicarbonate" (NaHCO 3). The modern method specifically names the hydrogen atom.
The prefix form is "carbamoyl-". e.g., HCONH 2 methanamide, CH 3 CONH 2 ethanamide. Amides that have additional substituents on the nitrogen are treated similarly to the case of amines: they are ordered alphabetically with the location prefix N: HCON(CH 3) 2 is N,N-dimethylmethanamide, CH 3 CON(CH 3) 2 is N,N-dimethylethanamide.
Chemical nomenclature is a set of rules to generate systematic names for chemical compounds.The nomenclature used most frequently worldwide is the one created and developed by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC).
The prefix "spiro" followed by a Von-Baeyer descriptor describes in the nomenclature of organic compounds ring systems linked by only one common atom, the spiro atom. If several spiro atoms are present in the molecule, the prefix "spiro" is provided with a prefix ("dispiro", "trispiro", etc.) corresponding to the number of spiro atoms.
The general article about the organometallic chemistry of an element should be entitled "Organo[element] chemistry", e.g., organomercury chemistry, organopalladium chemistry, organozinc chemistry. The IUPAC definition of an "organometallic compound" includes boron, silicon, arsenic, and selenium, so this title guideline also applies to ...
