  2. Hückel method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hückel_method

    It was later extended to conjugated molecules such as pyridine, pyrrole and furan that contain atoms other than carbon and hydrogen (heteroatoms). [4] A more dramatic extension of the method to include σ-electrons, known as the extended Hückel method (EHM), was developed by Roald Hoffmann .

  3. Locant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locant

    The nomenclature can also be applied to the hydrogen atoms attached to the carbon atoms. A hydrogen atom attached to an α-carbon is called an α-hydrogen, a hydrogen atom on the β-carbon is a β-hydrogen, and so on. Organic molecules with more than one functional group can be a source of confusion.

  4. Balmer series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balmer_series

    The red H-alpha spectral line of the Balmer series of atomic hydrogen, which is the transition from the shell n = 3 to the shell n = 2, is one of the conspicuous colours of the universe. It contributes a bright red line to the spectra of emission or ionisation nebula, like the Orion Nebula , which are often H II regions found in star forming ...

  5. Electron counting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_counting

    The neutral counting method assumes each OH bond is split equally (each atom gets one electron from the bond). Thus both hydrogen atoms have an electron count of one. The oxygen atom has 6 valence electrons. The total electron count is 8, which agrees with the octet rule.

  6. Hydrogen-alpha - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen-alpha

    Hydrogen-alpha, typically shortened to H-alpha or Hα, is a deep-red visible spectral line of the hydrogen atom with a wavelength of 656.28 nm in air and 656.46 nm in vacuum. It is the first spectral line in the Balmer series and is emitted when an electron falls from a hydrogen atom's third- to second-lowest energy level.

  7. Atomic packing factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_packing_factor

    Indeed, three are the atoms in the middle layer (inside the prism); in addition, for the top and bottom layers (on the bases of the prism), the central atom is shared with the adjacent cell, and each of the six atoms at the vertices is shared with other six adjacent cells. So the total number of atoms in the cell is 3 + (1/2)×2 + (1/6)×6×2 = 6.

  8. STO-nG basis sets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STO-nG_basis_sets

    STO-nG basis sets are minimal basis sets, where primitive Gaussian orbitals are fitted to a single Slater-type orbital (STO).originally took the values 2 – 6. They were first proposed by John Pople. A minimum basis set is where only sufficient orbitals are used to contain all the electrons in the neutral atom. Thus for the hydrogen atom, only a single 1s orbital is needed, while for a carbon ...

  9. 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. [1] In older contexts, atomicity is sometimes equivalent to valency. Some authors also use the term to refer to the maximum number of valencies observed ...
