  2. Sodium ethoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_ethoxide

    The ethyl layers pack back-to-back resulting in a lamellar structure. The reaction of sodium and ethanol sometimes forms other products such as the disolvate CH 3 CH 2 ONa·2CH 3 CH 2 OH. Its crystal structure has been determined, although the structure of other phases in the CH 3 CH 2 ONa/CH 3 CH 2 OH system remain unknown. [6]

  3. Ethanol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethanol

    Ethanol is the systematic name defined by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry for a compound consisting of an alkyl group with two carbon atoms (prefix "eth-"), having a single bond between them (infix "-an-") and an attached −OH functional group (suffix "-ol").

  4. Ion exchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion_exchange

    Ion-exchange resins in the form of thin membranes are also used in chloralkali process, fuel cells, and vanadium redox batteries. Idealised image of water-softening process, involving exchange of calcium ions in water with sodium ions from a cation-exchange resin on an equivalent basis.

  5. Ionic bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionic_bonding

    Ionic compounds in the solid state form lattice structures. The two principal factors in determining the form of the lattice are the relative charges of the ions and their relative sizes. Some structures are adopted by a number of compounds; for example, the structure of the rock salt sodium chloride is also adopted by many alkali halides, and ...

  6. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    Tie up loose ends. Two Lewis structures must be drawn: Each structure has one of the two oxygen atoms double-bonded to the nitrogen atom. The second oxygen atom in each structure will be single-bonded to the nitrogen atom. Place brackets around each structure, and add the charge (−) to the upper right outside the brackets.

  7. Resonance (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    Contributing structures of the carbonate ion. In chemistry, resonance, also called mesomerism, is a way of describing bonding in certain molecules or polyatomic ions by the combination of several contributing structures (or forms, [1] also variously known as resonance structures or canonical structures) into a resonance hybrid (or hybrid structure) in valence bond theory.

  8. Williamson ether synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Williamson_ether_synthesis

    This reaction is important in the history of organic chemistry because it helped prove the structure of ethers. The general reaction mechanism is as follows: [3] An example is the reaction of sodium ethoxide with chloroethane to form diethyl ether and sodium chloride: C 2 H 5 Cl + C 2 H 5 ONa → C 2 H 5 OC 2 H 5 + NaCl

  9. Alkoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkoxide

    Structure of the methoxide anion. Although alkali metal alkoxides are not salts and adopt complex structures, they behave chemically as sources of RO −. The structure of the methoxide ion. In chemistry, an alkoxide is the conjugate base of an alcohol and therefore consists of an organic group bonded to a negatively charged oxygen atom.
