  2. List of gases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gases

    This list is sorted by boiling point of gases in ascending order, but can be sorted on different values. "sub" and "triple" refer to the sublimation point and the triple point, which are given in the case of a substance that sublimes at 1 atm; "dec" refers to decomposition. "~" means approximately. Blue type items have an article available by ...

  3. Sulfur - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur

    Sulfur trioxide (made by catalysis from sulfur dioxide) and sulfuric acid are similarly highly acidic and corrosive in the presence of water. Concentrated sulfuric acid is a strong dehydrating agent that can strip available water molecules and water components from sugar and organic tissue.

  4. Glossary of chemistry terms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_chemistry_terms

    This glossary of chemistry terms is a list of terms and definitions relevant to chemistry, including chemical laws, diagrams and formulae, laboratory tools, glassware, and equipment. Chemistry is a physical science concerned with the composition, structure, and properties of matter , as well as the changes it undergoes during chemical reactions ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimony

    In the gas phase, the molecule of the compound is Sb 4 O 6, but it polymerizes upon condensing. [12] Antimony pentoxide (Sb 4 O 10) can be formed only by oxidation with concentrated nitric acid. [26] Antimony also forms a mixed-valence oxide, antimony tetroxide (Sb 2 O 4), which features both Sb(III) and Sb(V). [26]

  6. Iodine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodine

    Commercially, it is usually made by reacting iodine with hydrogen sulfide or hydrazine: [47] 2 I 2 + N 2 H 4 4 HI + N 2. At room temperature, it is a colourless gas, like all of the hydrogen halides except hydrogen fluoride, since hydrogen cannot form strong hydrogen bonds to the large and only mildly electronegative iodine atom. It melts at ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas

    Drifting smoke particles indicate the movement of the surrounding gas.. Gas is one of the four fundamental states of matter.The others are solid, liquid, and plasma. [1] A pure gas may be made up of individual atoms (e.g. a noble gas like neon), elemental molecules made from one type of atom (e.g. oxygen), or compound molecules made from a variety of atoms (e.g. carbon dioxide).

  8. Beryllium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beryllium

    Using an alcohol lamp, Wöhler heated alternating layers of beryllium chloride and potassium in a wired-shut platinum crucible. The above reaction immediately took place and caused the crucible to become white hot. Upon cooling and washing the resulting gray-black powder, he saw that it was made of fine particles with a dark metallic luster. [79]

  9. Chemical substance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_substance

    Gas stoichiometry deals with reactions solely involving gases, where the gases are at a known temperature, pressure, and volume and can be assumed to be ideal gases. For gases, the volume ratio is ideally the same by the ideal gas law, but the mass ratio of a single reaction has to be calculated from the molecular masses of the reactants and ...
