  2. Urea - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urea

    The structure of the molecule of urea is O=C(−NH 2) 2.The urea molecule is planar when in a solid crystal because of sp 2 hybridization of the N orbitals. [8] [9] It is non-planar with C 2 symmetry when in the gas phase [10] or in aqueous solution, [9] with C–N–H and HN–H bond angles that are intermediate between the trigonal planar angle of 120° and the tetrahedral angle of 109.5°.

  3. Molecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecule

    The simplest of molecules is the hydrogen molecule-ion, H 2 +, and the simplest of all the chemical bonds is the one-electron bond. H 2 + is composed of two positively charged protons and one negatively charged electron , which means that the Schrödinger equation for the system can be solved more easily due to the lack of electron–electron ...

  4. Hydrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrate

    The notation "hydrated compound⋅n H 2 O", where n is the number of water molecules per formula unit of the salt, is commonly used to show that a salt is hydrated. The n is usually a low integer, though it is possible for fractional values to occur. For example, in a monohydrate n = 1, and in a hexahydrate n = 6.

  5. Purine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purine

    Purine is aromatic, having four tautomers each with a hydrogen bonded to a different one of the four nitrogen atoms. These are identified as 1-H, 3-H, 7-H, and 9-H (see image of numbered ring). The common crystalline form favours the 7-H tautomer, while in polar solvents both the 9-H and 7-H tautomers predominate. [7]

  6. Nucleotide base - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleotide_base

    The A–T pairing is based on two hydrogen bonds, while the C–G pairing is based on three. In both cases, the hydrogen bonds are between the amine and carbonyl groups on the complementary bases. Nucleobases such as adenine, guanine, xanthine , hypoxanthine , purine, 2,6-diaminopurine , and 6,8-diaminopurine may have formed in outer space as ...

  7. Hydrogen bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_bond

    An ubiquitous example of a hydrogen bond is found between water molecules. In a discrete water molecule, there are two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. The simplest case is a pair of water molecules with one hydrogen bond between them, which is called the water dimer and is often used as a model system. When more molecules are present, as is ...

  8. Inorganic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inorganic_compound

    An inorganic compound is typically a chemical compound that lacks carbon–hydrogen bonds⁠ ‍ — ‍ that is, a compound that is not an organic compound. [1] [2] The study of inorganic compounds is a subfield of chemistry known as inorganic chemistry.

  9. Non-covalent interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-covalent_interaction

    A hydrogen bond (H-bond), is a specific type of interaction that involves dipole–dipole attraction between a partially positive hydrogen atom and a highly electronegative, partially negative oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, or fluorine atom (not covalently bound to said hydrogen atom). It is not a covalent bond, but instead is classified as a strong ...
