  2. Hydroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroxide

    The hydroxide ion is intermediate in nucleophilicity between the fluoride ion F −, and the amide ion NH − 2. [51] Ester hydrolysis under alkaline conditions (also known as base hydrolysis) R 1 C(O)OR 2 + OH − ⇌ R 1 CO(O)H + − OR 2 ⇌ R 1 CO 2 − + HOR 2. is an example of a hydroxide ion serving as a nucleophile. [52]

  3. Deprotonation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deprotonation

    The solvent used can also assist in the stabilization of the negative charge on a conjugated base. Bases used to deprotonate depend on the p K a of the compound. When the compound is not particularly acidic , and, as such, the molecule does not give up its proton easily, a base stronger than the commonly known hydroxides is required.

  4. Ion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion

    The net charge of an ion is not zero because its total number of electrons is unequal to its total number of protons. A cation is a positively charged ion with fewer electrons than protons [2] (e.g. K + (potassium ion)) while an anion is a negatively charged ion with more electrons than protons. [3] (e.g. Cl − (chloride ion) and OH − ...

  5. Hydroxyl radical - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroxyl_radical

    Skeletal formulae of 1-hydroxy-2()-pyridinethione and its tautomer. The hydroxyl radical, • HO, is the neutral form of the hydroxide ion (HO –).Hydroxyl radicals are highly reactive and consequently short-lived; however, they form an important part of radical chemistry.

  6. Dross - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dross

    With wrought iron, hammering and later rolling remove some dross. [1] With tin and lead the dross can be removed by adding sodium hydroxide pellets, which dissolve the oxides and form a slag. If floating, dross can also be skimmed off. Dross, as a solid, is distinguished from slag, which is a liquid.

  7. Oxidation state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidation_state

    As an example, summing bond orders in the ammonium cation yields −4 at the nitrogen of formal charge +1, with the two numbers adding to the oxidation state of −3: The sum of oxidation states in the ion equals its charge (as it equals zero for a neutral molecule). Also in anions, the formal (ionic) charges have to be considered when nonzero.

  8. Transition metal hydroxide complexes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transition_metal_hydroxide...

    Hydroxide is classified as an X ligand in the Covalent bond classification method. In the usual electron counting method, it is a one-electron ligand when terminal and a three-electron ligand when doubly bridging. From the electric structure perspective, hydroxide is a strong pi-donor ligand, akin to fluoride.

  9. Ion transport number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion_transport_number

    The practical importance of high (i.e. close to 1) transference numbers of the charge-shuttling ion (i.e. Li+ in lithium-ion batteries) is related to the fact, that in single-ion devices (such as lithium-ion batteries) electrolytes with the transfer number of the ion near 1, concentration gradients do not develop. A constant electrolyte ...
