Radii in picometers of common halogen atoms (gray/black) and the corresponding halide anions (blue) In chemistry, a halide (rarely halogenide [1]) is a binary chemical compound, of which one part is a halogen atom and the other part is an element or radical that is less electronegative (or more electropositive) than the halogen, to make a fluoride, chloride, bromide, iodide, astatide, or ...
Alkali metal halides, or alkali halides, are the family of inorganic compounds with the chemical formula MX, where M is an alkali metal and X is a halogen. These compounds are the often commercially significant sources of these metals and halides. The best known of these compounds is sodium chloride, table salt. [1]
Once broken in the body, Rb + replaces K + in tissues because they are from the same chemical group. [9] An example of this is the use of a radioactive isotope to evaluate perfusion of heart muscle. Rubidium chloride transformation for competent cells is arguably the compound's most abundant use. Cells treated with a hypotonic solution ...
The compressibility of a salt is strongly determined by its structure, and in particular the coordination number. For example, halides with the caesium chloride structure (coordination number 8) are less compressible than those with the sodium chloride structure (coordination number 6), and less again than those with a coordination number of 4 ...
With halide ions there are examples of all of these geometries along with some anions with octahedrally coordinated indium and with bridging halogen atoms, In 2 X 3− 9 with three bridging halogen atoms and In 2 X − 7 with just one. Additionally there are examples of indium with square planar geometry in the InX 5 2− ion.
Metal halides are compounds between metals and halogens. Some, such as sodium chloride are ionic , while others such as uranium hexafluoride have considerable covalent character to their bonding. This category serves as a complement to Category:Nonmetal halides
A silver halide (or silver salt) is one of the chemical compounds that can form between the element silver (Ag) and one of the halogens.In particular, bromine (Br), chlorine (Cl), iodine (I) and fluorine (F) may each combine with silver to produce silver bromide (AgBr), silver chloride (AgCl), silver iodide (AgI), and four forms of silver fluoride, respectively.
In chemistry, a sulfonyl halide consists of a sulfonyl (>S(=O) 2) group singly bonded to a halogen atom. They have the general formula RSO 2 X , where X is a halogen. The stability of sulfonyl halides decreases in the order fluorides > chlorides > bromides > iodides , all four types being well known.
