  2. Salinon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salinon

    Archimedes introduced the salinon in his Book of Lemmas by applying Book II, Proposition 10 of Euclid's Elements.Archimedes noted that "the area of the figure bounded by the circumferences of all the semicircles [is] equal to the area of the circle on CF as diameter."

  3. Semicircle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semicircle

    In mathematics (and more specifically geometry), a semicircle is a one-dimensional locus of points that forms half of a circle.It is a circular arc that measures 180° (equivalently, π radians, or a half-turn).

  4. Water model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_model

    where μ is the electric dipole moment of the effectively polarized water molecule (2.35 D for the SPC/E model), μ 0 is the dipole moment of an isolated water molecule (1.85 D from experiment), and α i is an isotropic polarizability constant, with a value of 1.608 × 10 −40 F·m 2. Since the charges in the model are constant, this ...

  5. Arc diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_diagram

    An arc diagram is a style of graph drawing, in which the vertices of a graph are placed along a line in the Euclidean plane, with edges being drawn as semicircles in one or both of the two halfplanes bounded by the line, or as smooth curves formed by sequences of semicircles. In some cases, line segments of the line itself are also allowed as ...

  6. Structural formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_formula

    Skeletal structural formula of Vitamin B 12.Many organic molecules are too complicated to be specified by a molecular formula.. The structural formula of a chemical compound is a graphic representation of the molecular structure (determined by structural chemistry methods), showing how the atoms are possibly arranged in the real three-dimensional space.

  7. Molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_geometry

    Trigonal planar: Molecules with the trigonal planar shape are somewhat triangular and in one plane (flat). Consequently, the bond angles are set at 120°. For example, boron trifluoride. Angular: Angular molecules (also called bent or V-shaped) have a non-linear shape. For example, water (H 2 O), which has an angle of about 105°. A water ...

  8. Molecular symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_symmetry

    Symmetry elements of formaldehyde. C 2 is a two-fold rotation axis. σ v and σ v ' are two non-equivalent reflection planes.. In chemistry, molecular symmetry describes the symmetry present in molecules and the classification of these molecules according to their symmetry.

  9. Archimedean circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedean_circle

    If and are the radii of the small semicircles of the arbelos, the radius of an Archimedean circle is equal to = + This radius is thus = +.. The Archimedean circle with center (as in the figure at right) is tangent to the tangents from the centers of the small semicircles to the other small semicircle.
