The Ionic chiton could also be made from linen or wool and was draped without the fold and held in place from neck to wrist by several small pins or buttons.. Herodotus states the dress of the women in Athens was changed from the Doric peplos to the Ionic chiton after the widows of the men killed on military expedition to Aegina stabbed and killed the sole survivor with their peplos pins, each ...
This lists the character tables for the more common molecular point groups used in the study of molecular symmetry. These tables are based on the group-theoretical treatment of the symmetry operations present in common molecules, and are useful in molecular spectroscopy and quantum chemistry. Information regarding the use of the tables, as well ...
The Mourning Athena relief with Athena wearing a plain doric overfold chiton, c. 460 BC So-called "Exaltation de la Fleur" (exaltation of the flower), fragments from a secondary grave stele: two women wearing a peplos and kekryphalos , hold poppy or pomegranate flowers, and maybe a small bag of seeds. Parian marble, c. 470 –460 BC.
Larvae of chitons: First image is the trochophore, second is in metamorphosis, third is an immature adult. Chitons have separate sexes, and fertilization is usually external. The male releases sperm into the water, while the female releases eggs either individually, or in a long string. In most cases, fertilization takes place either in the ...
An example of an ionomer, with carboxylate groups bound to a zinc cation. An ionomer (/ ˌ aɪ ˈ ɑː n ə m ər /) (iono-+ -mer) is a polymer composed of repeat units of both electrically neutral repeating units and ionized units covalently bonded to the polymer backbone as pendant group moieties.
The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.
It was usually worn over a chiton and/or peplos, but was made of heavier drape and played the role of a cloak or shawl. [2] When the himation was used alone, without a chiton, it served both as a chiton and as a cloak. [2] The himation was markedly less voluminous than the Roman toga. Many vase paintings depict women wearing a himation as a ...
The Ionic shaft comes with four more flutes than the Doric counterpart (totalling 24). The Ionic base has two convex moldings called tori, which are separated by a scotia. The Ionic order is also marked by an entasis, a curved tapering in the column shaft. A column of the Ionic order is nine times more tall than its lower diameter.
