  2. Kasha's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kasha's_rule

    A corollary of Kasha's rule is the Vavilov rule, which states that the quantum yield of luminescence is generally independent of the excitation wavelength. [4] [7] This can be understood as a consequence of the tendency – implied by Kasha's rule – for molecules in upper states to relax to the lowest excited state non-radiatively.

  3. Ọrunmila - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ọrunmila

    Following the categories developed by the Nigerian scholar Peju Yemaje, Orunmila is recognized as a primordial Orisha, an ara orun, one that existed before the creation of humanity and resides in Heaven, as opposed to irun-male or irunmole, sacred beings living on Earth.

    Shrine to Oshun in the Osun-Osogbo Sacred Grove. Oshun (also Ọṣun, Ochún, and Oxúm) is the Yoruba orisha associated with love, sexuality, fertility, femininity, water, destiny, divination, purity, and beauty, and the Osun River, and of wealth and prosperity in Voodoo. [1] [2] [3] She is considered the most popular and venerated of the 401 ...

  5. Arrow pushing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrow_pushing

    Arrow pushing or electron pushing is a technique used to describe the progression of organic chemistry reaction mechanisms. [1] It was first developed by Sir Robert Robinson.In using arrow pushing, "curved arrows" or "curly arrows" are drawn on the structural formulae of reactants in a chemical equation to show the reaction mechanism.

  6. Hydration energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydration_energy

    In chemistry, hydration energy (also hydration enthalpy) is the amount of energy released when one mole of ions undergoes solvation. Hydration energy is one component in the quantitative analysis of solvation. It is a particular special case of water. [1] The value of hydration energies is one of the most challenging aspects of structural ...

  7. Bond energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_energy

    The bond energy for H 2 O is the average energy required to break each of the two O–H bonds in sequence: Although the two bonds are the equivalent in the original symmetric molecule, the bond-dissociation energy of an oxygen–hydrogen bond varies slightly depending on whether or not there is another hydrogen atom bonded to the oxygen atom.

  8. Transition state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transition_state

    In chemistry, the transition state of a chemical reaction is a particular configuration along the reaction coordinate. It is defined as the state corresponding to the highest potential energy along this reaction coordinate. [1] It is often marked with the double dagger (‡) symbol.

  9. Isomerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isomerization

    In chemistry, isomerization or isomerisation is the process in which a molecule, polyatomic ion or molecular fragment is transformed into an isomer with a different chemical structure. [1] Enolization is an example of isomerization, as is tautomerization .
