  2. Skeletal formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeletal_formula

    The skeletal formula of the antidepressant drug escitalopram, featuring skeletal representations of heteroatoms, a triple bond, phenyl groups and stereochemistry. The skeletal formula, line-angle formula, bond-line formula or shorthand formula of an organic compound is a type of molecular structural formula that serves as a shorthand representation of a molecule's bonding and some details of ...

  3. Molecular orbital diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_orbital_diagram

    The only way to accomplish this is by occupying both the bonding and antibonding orbitals with two electrons, which reduces the bond order ((22)/2) to zero and cancels the net energy stabilization. However, by removing one electron from dihelium, the stable gas-phase species He + 2 ion is formed with bond order 1/2.

  4. Ion pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion_pump

    A noble diode pump is a type of ion pump used in high-vacuum applications that employs both a chemically reactive cathode, such as titanium, and an additional cathode composed of tantalum. The tantalum cathode serves as a high-inertia crystal lattice structure for the reflection and burial of neutrals, increasing pumping effectiveness of inert ...

  5. Valence (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    Thus, each sulfur atom is hexavalent or has valence 6, but has oxidation state +5. In the dioxygen molecule O 2, each oxygen atom has 2 valence bonds and so is divalent (valence 2), but has oxidation state 0. In acetylene H−C≡C−H, each carbon atom has 4 valence bonds (1 single bond with hydrogen atom and a triple bond with the other ...

  6. Oxidative coupling of methane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidative_coupling_of_methane

    The oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) is a potential chemical reaction studied in the 1980s for the direct conversion of natural gas, primarily consisting of methane, into value-added chemicals. Although the reaction would have strong economics if practicable, no effective catalysts are known, and thermodynamic arguments suggest none can exist.

  7. Flammability diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flammability_diagram

    The stoichiometric concentration of methane in oxygen is therefore 1/(1+2), which is 33 percent. Any stoichiometric mixture of methane and oxygen will lie on the straight line between pure nitrogen (and zero percent methane) and 33 percent methane (and 67 percent oxygen) – this is shown as the red stoichiometric line.

  8. Bohr model of the chemical bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Bohr_model_of_the_chemical_bond

    The Bohr model of the chemical bond took into account the Coulomb repulsion - the electrons in the ring are at the maximum distance from each other. [2] Thus, according to this model, the methane molecule is a regular tetrahedron, in which center the carbon nucleus locates, and in the corners - the nucleus of hydrogen. The chemical bond between ...

  9. Metal–ligand multiple bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal–ligand_multiple_bond

    In this situation the oxygen is sp 3 hybridized according to valence bond theory. Increasing the bond order to two by involving another lone pair changes the hybridization at the oxygen to an sp 2 center with an expected expansion in the M-O-R bond angle and contraction in the M-O bond length. If all three lone pairs are included for a bond ...
