  2. Dihedral angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihedral_angle

    Free energy diagram of n-butane as a function of dihedral angle. In stereochemistry, a torsion angle is defined as a particular example of a dihedral angle, describing the geometric relation of two parts of a molecule joined by a chemical bond. [4] [5] Every set of three non-colinear atoms of a molecule defines a half-plane. As explained above ...

  3. Newman projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newman_projection

    These six conformations can be represented in a relative energy diagram. Butane molecule represented on a staggered and eclipsed Newman projection down a carbon-carbon bond Butane molecule and all of its possible Newman conformations represented on a relative energy diagram. The diagram takes staggered and eclipsed conformations, as well as ...

  4. Fischer projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fischer_projection

    The use of Fischer projections in non-carbohydrates is discouraged, as such drawings are ambiguous and easily confused with other types of drawing. The main purpose of Fischer projections is to show the chirality of a molecule and to distinguish between a pair of enantiomers. Some notable uses include drawing sugars and depicting isomers. [1]

  5. Energy profile (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_profile_(chemistry)

    Any chemical structure that lasts longer than the time for typical bond vibrations (10 −13 – 10 −14 s) can be considered as intermediate. [4] Figure 5:Potential Energy Surface and Corresponding 2-D Reaction Coordinate Diagram derived from the plane passing through the minimum energy pathway between A and C and passing through B

  6. Walsh diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walsh_diagram

    Walsh Diagram of an HAH molecule. Walsh diagrams, often called angular coordinate diagrams or correlation diagrams, are representations of calculated orbital binding energies of a molecule versus a distortion coordinate (bond angles), used for making quick predictions about the geometries of small molecules.

  7. Line–line intersection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lineline_intersection

    Two intersecting lines. In Euclidean geometry, the intersection of a line and a line can be the empty set, a point, or another line.Distinguishing these cases and finding the intersection have uses, for example, in computer graphics, motion planning, and collision detection.

  8. Descriptive geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descriptive_geometry

    To get a true view (length in the projection is equal to length in 3D space) of one of the lines: SU in this example, projection 3 is drawn with hinge line H 2,3 parallel to S 2 U 2. To get an end view of SU, projection 4 is drawn with hinge line H 3,4 perpendicular to S 3 U 3. The perpendicular distance d gives the shortest distance between PR ...

  9. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    A line on the surface called a triple line is where solid, liquid and vapor can all coexist in equilibrium. The critical point remains a point on the surface even on a 3D phase diagram. The critical point remains a point on the surface even on a 3D phase diagram.
