  2. Nitrogen dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen_dioxide

    One of several nitrogen oxides, nitrogen dioxide is a reddish-brown gas. It is a paramagnetic , bent molecule with C 2v point group symmetry . Industrially, NO 2 is an intermediate in the synthesis of nitric acid , millions of tons of which are produced each year, primarily for the production of fertilizers .

  3. Noble gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noble_gas

    For example, the electron notation of phosphorus is 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 2 3p 3, while the noble gas notation is [Ne] 3s 2 3p 3. This more compact notation makes it easier to identify elements, and is shorter than writing out the full notation of atomic orbitals. [36] The noble gases cross the boundary between blocks—helium is an s-element ...

  4. List of gases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gases

    Nitroxyl and diazene are simple nitrogen compounds known to be gases but they are too unstable and short lived to be condensed. Methanetellurol CH 3 TeH 25284-83-7 unstable at room temperature. [154] Sulfur pentafluoride isocyanide isomerises to sulfur pentafluoride cyanide. [155]

  5. Noble gas compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noble_gas_compound

    Structure of a noble-gas atom caged within a buckminsterfullerene (C 60) molecule. Noble gases can also form endohedral fullerene compounds where the noble gas atom is trapped inside a fullerene molecule. In 1993, it was discovered that when C 60 is exposed to a pressure of around 3 bar of He or Ne, the complexes He@C 60 and Ne@C 60 are formed ...

  6. Atomicity (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    Atomicity is the total number of atoms present in a molecule of an element. For example, each molecule of oxygen (O 2) is composed of two oxygen atoms.Therefore, the atomicity of oxygen is 2.

  7. Term symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Term_symbol

    These are notations for describing states of singly excited atoms, especially noble gas atoms. Racah notation is basically a combination of LS or Russell–Saunders coupling and J 1 L 2 coupling. LS coupling is for a parent ion and J 1 L 2 coupling is for a coupling of the parent ion and the excited electron. The parent ion is an unexcited part ...

  8. Wikipedia:Naming conventions (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    "halogen" and "noble gas" are used to refer to the entirety of groups 17 and 18, per a 2016 IUPAC report about naming new elements [4] Some sources focusing on superheavy elements may not consider tennessine (Ts) to be a halogen, or oganesson (Og) to be a noble gas, as their predicted chemistry is generally supposed to be quite different from ...

  9. NOx - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOx

    In atmospheric chemistry, NO x is shorthand for nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO 2), the nitrogen oxides that are most relevant for air pollution. [1] [2] These gases contribute to the formation of smog and acid rain, as well as affecting tropospheric ozone.
