  2. Sabatier principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabatier_principle

    Volcano plot for the decomposition of formic acid on transition metals. In chemistry, the Sabatier principle is a qualitative concept in heterogeneous catalysis named after the French chemist Paul Sabatier. It states that the interactions between the catalyst and the reactants should be "just right"; that is, neither too strong nor too weak. If ...

  3. List of character tables for chemically important 3D point ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_character_tables...

    This lists the character tables for the more common molecular point groups used in the study of molecular symmetry. These tables are based on the group-theoretical treatment of the symmetry operations present in common molecules, and are useful in molecular spectroscopy and quantum chemistry. Information regarding the use of the tables, as well ...

  4. More O'Ferrall–Jencks plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/More_O'Ferrall–Jencks_plot

    A generic More O’Ferrall–Jencks plot. R, I(1), I(2) and P stand for reactant(s), intermediate(s) 1, intermediate(s) 2 and product(s) respectively. The thick arrows represent movement of the transition state (black dot) parallel and perpendicular to the diagonal (red line). The thin arrow is the vector sum of the thick arrows.

    the arithmetic function counting a number's distinct prime factors [41] the symbol ϖ, a graphic variant of π, is sometimes construed as omega with a bar over it; see π; the unsaturated fats nomenclature in biochemistry (e.g. ω−3 fatty acids) the first uncountable ordinal (also written as Ω)

  6. Partition function (statistical mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_function...

    The extra constant factor introduced in the denominator was introduced because, unlike the discrete form, the continuous form shown above is not dimensionless. As stated in the previous section, to make it into a dimensionless quantity, we must divide it by h 3 N (where h is usually taken to be the Planck constant).

  8. Host–guest chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Host–guest_chemistry

    In supramolecular chemistry, [1] host–guest chemistry describes complexes that are composed of two or more molecules or ions that are held together in unique structural relationships by forces other than those of full covalent bonds. Host–guest chemistry encompasses the idea of molecular recognition and interactions through non-covalent ...

  9. Piper diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piper_diagram

    A Piper diagram is a graphical representation of the chemistry of a water sample or samples. The cations and anions are shown by separate ternary plots. The apexes of the cation plot are calcium, magnesium and sodium plus potassium cations. The apexes of the anion plot are sulfate, chloride and carbonate plus hydrogen carbonate anions.
