  2. 68–95–99.7 rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/68–95–99.7_rule

    In the empirical sciences, the so-called three-sigma rule of thumb (or 3 σ rule) expresses a conventional heuristic that nearly all values are taken to lie within three standard deviations of the mean, and thus it is empirically useful to treat 99.7% probability as near certainty.

  3. Carbon–carbon bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon–carbon_bond

    The carbon–carbon single bond is a sigma bond and is formed between one hybridized orbital from each of the carbon atoms. In ethane, the orbitals are sp 3-hybridized orbitals, but single bonds formed between carbon atoms with other hybridizations do occur (e.g. sp 2 to sp 2). In fact, the carbon atoms in the single bond need not be of the ...

  4. Sigma bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigma_bond

    There is no more than 1 sigma bond between any two atoms. Molecules with rings have additional sigma bonds, such as benzene rings, which have 6 C−C sigma bonds within the ring for 6 carbon atoms. The anthracene molecule, C 14 H 10, has three rings so that the rule gives the number of sigma bonds as 24 + 3 − 1 = 26. In this case there are 16 ...

  5. Sigmatropic reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmatropic_reaction

    An odd number is an indication of the involvement of a charged C atom or of a heteroatom lone pair replacing a CC double bond. Thus, [1,5] and [3,3] shifts become [1,4] and [2,3] shifts with heteroatoms, while preserving symmetry considerations. Hydrogens are omitted in the third example for clarity.

  6. Alpha cleavage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_cleavage

    [3] [4] For example, of a mechanism of alpha-cleavage, an electron is knocked off an atom (usually by electron collision) to form a radical cation. Electron removal generally happens in the following order: 1) lone pair electrons, 2) pi bond electrons, 3) sigma bond electrons.

  7. Triple bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_bond

    When the atoms approach each other, the sp orbitals overlap to form an sp-sp sigma bond. At the same time the p z-orbitals approach and together they form a p z-p z pi-bond. Likewise, the other pair of p y-orbitals form a p y-p y pi-bond. The result is formation of one sigma bond and two pi bonds.

  8. Ford Zetec engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Zetec_engine

    The advanced Zetec-SE (sometimes badged as Zetec-S) was developed in collaboration with Yamaha and Mazda, under the Sigma codename. It ranges in size from 1.2 to 1.7 L (1,242 to 1,679 cc). It ranges in size from 1.2 to 1.7 L (1,242 to 1,679 cc).

  9. Detection limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detection_limit

    Most analytical instruments produce a signal even when a blank (matrix without analyte) is analyzed.This signal is referred to as the noise level. The instrument detection limit (IDL) is the analyte concentration that is required to produce a signal greater than three times the standard deviation of the noise level.
