  2. R-factor (crystallography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-factor_(crystallography)

    In crystallography, the R-factor (sometimes called residual factor or reliability factor or the R-value or R Work) is a measure of the disagreement between the crystallographic model and the experimental X-ray diffraction data - lower the R value lower is the disagreement or better is the agreement.

  3. Retardation factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retardation_factor

    An R F value will always be in the range 0 to 1; if the substance moves, it can only move in the direction of the solvent flow, and cannot move faster than the solvent. For example, if particular substance in an unknown mixture travels 2.5 cm and the solvent front travels 5.0 cm, the retardation factor would be 0.50.

  4. Gas constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_constant

    T is the temperature, T TPW = 273.16 K by the definition of the kelvin at that time; A r (Ar) is the relative atomic mass of argon and M u = 10 −3 kg⋅mol −1 as defined at the time. However, following the 2019 revision of the SI, R now has an exact value defined in terms of other exactly defined physical constants.

  5. Activation energy - Wikipedia

    where A is the pre-exponential factor for the reaction, R is the universal gas constant, T is the absolute temperature (usually in kelvins), and k is the reaction rate coefficient. Even without knowing A, E a can be evaluated from the variation in reaction rate coefficients as a function of temperature (within the validity of the Arrhenius ...

  6. Ether - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ether

    R and R' represent most organyl substituents. In organic chemistry, ethers are a class of compounds that contain an ether group—a single oxygen atom bonded to two separate carbon atoms, each part of an organyl group (e.g., alkyl or aryl). They have the general formula R−O−R′, where R and R′ represent

    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 ...

  8. Absolute configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_configuration

    COOH, R, NH 2 and H (where R is the side-chain) are arranged around the chiral center carbon atom. With the hydrogen atom away from the viewer, if the arrangement of the CO→R→N groups around the carbon atom as center is counter-clockwise, then it is the L form. [14] If the arrangement is clockwise, it is the D form. As usual, if the ...

  9. Equilibrium constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equilibrium_constant

    The decrease in zero-point energy due to deuterium substitution will then be more important for R'–H than for R–H, and R'–D will be stabilized more than R–D, so that the equilibrium constant K D for R' + D–RR'–D + R is greater than K H. This is summarized in the rule the heavier atom favors the stronger bond. [19]
