  2. Bromochlorodifluoromethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromochlorodifluoromethane

    Bromochlorodifluoromethane (BCF), also referred to by the code numbers Halon 1211 and Freon 12B1, is a haloalkane with the chemical formula C F 2 Cl Br. It is used for fire suppression, especially for expensive equipment or items that could be damaged by the residue from other types of extinguishers. [ 1 ]

  3. Bioconcentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioconcentration

    Bioconcentration. In aquatic toxicology, bioconcentration is the accumulation of a water-borne chemical substance in an organism exposed to the water. [1][2] There are several ways in which to measure and assess bioaccumulation and bioconcentration. These include: octanol-water partition coefficients (K OW), bioconcentration factors (BCF ...

  4. Biopharmaceutics Classification System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biopharmaceutics...

    The Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS) is a system to differentiate drugs on the basis of their solubility and permeability. [1] This system restricts the prediction using the parameters solubility and intestinal permeability. The solubility classification is based on a United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) aperture.

  5. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

    For instance, the first counterexample must be odd because f(2n) = n, smaller than 2n; and it must be 3 mod 4 because f 2 (4n + 1) = 3n + 1, smaller than 4n + 1. For each starting value a which is not a counterexample to the Collatz conjecture, there is a k for which such an inequality holds, so checking the Collatz conjecture for one starting ...

  6. Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane

    Tris (pentafluorophenyl)borane, sometimes referred to as "BCF", is the chemical compound (C6F5)3B. It is a white, volatile solid. The molecule consists of three pentafluorophenyl groups attached in a "paddle-wheel" manner to a central boron atom; the BC3 core is planar. It has been described as the “ideal Lewis acid ” because of its high ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_refrigerants

    For example, R-22 has one carbon atom, one hydrogen atom (21 = 1), two fluorine atoms, and one chlorine atom (421 = 1), so it is chlorodifluoromethane, while R-134 has two carbon atoms (21 = 1), two hydrogen atoms (3−1 = 2), four fluorine atoms, and no chlorine atoms (6−24 = 0), so it is one of the tetrafluoroethanes. This ...

    The numbers for which this bound is tight are exactly the Mersenne numbers with even exponents, the numbers of the form =, such as 3, 15, 63, etc. For these numbers, the smallest odious multiple is exactly n ( n + 4 ) = 2 4 r + 2 2 r + 1 − 3 {\displaystyle n(n+4)=2^{4r}+2^{2r+1}-3} .
