  2. Caesium fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caesium_fluoride

    Caesium fluoride has the halite structure, which means that the Cs + and F − pack in a cubic closest packed array as do Na + and Cl − in sodium chloride. [3] Unlike sodium chloride, caesium fluoride's anion is smaller than its cation, so it is the anion size that sterically inhibits larger coordination numbers than six under normally ...

  3. Oxygen difluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_difluoride

    Oxygen difluoride is a chemical compound with the formula OF 2. As predicted by VSEPR theory, the molecule adopts a bent molecular geometry. [citation needed] It is a strong oxidizer and has attracted attention in rocketry for this reason. [5] With a boiling point of −144.75 °C, OF 2 is the most volatile (isolable) triatomic compound. [6]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_formula

    Skeletal structural formula of Vitamin B 12.Many organic molecules are too complicated to be specified by a molecular formula.. The structural formula of a chemical compound is a graphic representation of the molecular structure (determined by structural chemistry methods), showing how the atoms are connected to one another. [1]

  5. Dioxygen difluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dioxygen_difluoride

    2, oxygen is assigned the unusual oxidation state of +1. In most of its other compounds, oxygen has an oxidation state of −2. The structure of dioxygen difluoride resembles that of hydrogen peroxide, H 2 O 2, in its large dihedral angle, which approaches 90° and C 2 symmetry. This geometry conforms with the predictions of VSEPR theory.

  6. Oxygen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen

    The name oxygen was coined in 1777 by Antoine Lavoisier, who first recognized oxygen as a chemical element and correctly characterized the role it plays in combustion. Common industrial uses of oxygen include production of steel , plastics and textiles , brazing, welding and cutting of steels and other metals , rocket propellant , oxygen ...

  7. Bent molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bent_molecular_geometry

    In chemistry, molecules with a non-collinear arrangement of two adjacent bonds have bent molecular geometry, also known as angular or V-shaped. Certain atoms, such as oxygen, will almost always set their two (or more) covalent bonds in non-collinear directions due to their electron configuration .

  8. Octahedral molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octahedral_molecular_geometry

    In chemistry, octahedral molecular geometry, also called square bipyramidal, [1] describes the shape of compounds with six atoms or groups of atoms or ligands symmetrically arranged around a central atom, defining the vertices of an octahedron. The octahedron has eight faces, hence the prefix octa.
