  2. Atomic nucleus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_nucleus

    The adoption of the term "nucleus" to atomic theory, however, was not immediate. In 1916, for example, Gilbert N. Lewis stated, in his famous article The Atom and the Molecule, that "the atom is composed of the kernel and an outer atom or shell." [12] Similarly, the term kern meaning kernel is used for nucleus in German and Dutch.

    [35]: 118 Moreover, the periodic table could predict how many atoms of other elements that an atom could bond with — e.g., germanium and carbon are in the same group on the table and their atoms both combine with two oxygen atoms each (GeO 2 and CO 2). Mendeleev found these patterns validated atomic theory because it showed that the elements ...

    Dalton concluded that in these oxides, for every two atoms of iron, there are two or three atoms of oxygen respectively (Fe 2 O 2 and Fe 2 O 3). [ b ] [ 8 ] [ 9 ] As a final example: nitrous oxide is 63.3% nitrogen and 36.7% oxygen, nitric oxide is 44.05% nitrogen and 55.95% oxygen, and nitrogen dioxide is 29.5% nitrogen and 70.5% oxygen.

    It also prescribed that the Research Organizations consisted with Head of Research Organizations, Centers, and Laboratories/Study Groups. [2] For the transitional period, as in Article 210 of Chairman of BRIN Decree No. 1/2021 mandated, [ 2 ] the structure of ORTN follows the preceding structure that was already established during its time in ...

    Cisplatin, PtCl 2 (NH 3) 2, is a coordination complex of platinum(II) with two chloride and two ammonia ligands.It is one of the most successful anticancer drugs. A coordination complex is a chemical compound consisting of a central atom or ion, which is usually metallic and is called the coordination centre, and a surrounding array of bound molecules or ions, that are in turn known as ligands ...

  7. Functional group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_group

    Functional groups binding to a central atom in a coordination complex are called ligands. Complexation and solvation are also caused by specific interactions of functional groups. In the common rule of thumb "like dissolves like", it is the shared or mutually well-interacting functional groups which give rise to solubility .

    Protests against plans for nuclear power were held in June 2007 in central Java, [2] and increased in mid-2007. [4] In December 2013 it was reported that Indonesia was planning to begin constructing a reactor in 2015. [5] In February 2014 the Indonesian Government confirmed that it was planning to construct a 30MW reactor in the near future. [6]
