  2. Carbonyl fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonyl_fluoride

    Safety [ edit ] Carbonyl fluoride is very toxic with a recommended exposure limit of 2 ppm as an 8-hour time weighted average and a 5 ppm as a short-term (15-minute average) exposure, where 1 ppm = 2.70 mg of carbonyl fluoride per 1 m 3 of air.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Naming...

    For isotopes of undiscovered elements, either systematic names (e.g. 296 Uue) or atomic numbers (e.g. 296 119) are acceptable for the symbols, but only the systematic names can be used for the full names (e.g. ununennium-296, not element 119-296 which nobody uses).

  4. Alcohol (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    The term alcohol originally referred to the primary alcohol ethanol (ethyl alcohol), which is used as a drug and is the main alcohol present in alcoholic drinks. The suffix -ol appears in the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) chemical name of all substances where the hydroxyl group is the functional group with the ...

  5. Acid rain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_rain

    Acid rain is rain or any other form of precipitation that is unusually acidic, meaning that it has elevated levels of hydrogen ions (low pH).Most water, including drinking water, has a neutral pH that exists between 6.5 and 8.5, but acid rain has a pH level lower than this and ranges from 4–5 on average.

  6. IUPAC nomenclature of organic chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUPAC_nomenclature_of...

    Where an acid has both a systematic and a common name (like CH 3 COOH, for example, which is known as both acetic acid and as ethanoic acid), its salts can be named from either parent name. Thus, KCH 3 CO 2 can be named as potassium acetate or as potassium ethanoate.

  7. Fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoride

    The systematic name fluoride, the valid IUPAC name, is determined according to the additive nomenclature. However, the name fluoride is also used in compositional IUPAC nomenclature which does not take the nature of bonding involved into account. Fluoride is also used non-systematically, to describe compounds which release fluoride upon ...

  8. Cinnamyl alcohol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinnamyl_alcohol

    Cinnamyl alcohol or styron [2] is an organic compound that is found in esterified form in storax, Balsam of Peru, and cinnamon leaves. It forms a white crystalline solid when pure, or a yellow oil when even slightly impure. It can be produced by the hydrolysis of storax.

  9. Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances - Wikipedia

    A meta-analysis for associations between PFASs and human clinical biomarkers for liver injury, analyzing PFAS effects on liver biomarkers and histological data from rodent experimental studies, concluded that evidence exists that PFOA, perfluorohexanesulfonic acid (PFHxS), and perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA) caused hepatotoxicity in humans.
