  2. Carbanion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbanion

    Formally, a carbanion is the conjugate base of a carbon acid: R 3 CH + B − → R 3 C − + HB. where B stands for the base. The carbanions formed from deprotonation of alkanes (at an sp 3 carbon), alkenes (at an sp 2 carbon), arenes (at an sp 2 carbon), and alkynes (at an sp carbon) are known as alkyl, alkenyl , aryl, and alkynyl anions ...

  3. Coordination number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordination_number

    A graphite layer, carbon atoms and C–C bonds shown in black. The two most common allotropes of carbon have different coordination numbers. In diamond, each carbon atom is at the centre of a regular tetrahedron formed by four other carbon atoms, the coordination number is four, as for methane.

  4. Cyclic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_compound

    Rings may vary in size from three to many atoms, and include examples where all the atoms are carbon (i.e., are carbocycles), none of the atoms are carbon (inorganic cyclic compounds), or where both carbon and non-carbon atoms are present (heterocyclic compounds with rings containing both carbon and non-carbon).

  6. Ring (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    Four cycloalkanes, all of which exhibit simple rings In chemistry , a ring is an ambiguous term referring either to a simple cycle of atoms and bonds in a molecule or to a connected set of atoms and bonds in which every atom and bond is a member of a cycle (also called a ring system ).

  7. Valence (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    The valence is the combining capacity of an atom of a given element, determined by the number of hydrogen atoms that it combines with. In methane, carbon has a valence of 4; in ammonia, nitrogen has a valence of 3; in water, oxygen has a valence of 2; and in hydrogen chloride, chlorine has a valence of 1.

  8. Catenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catenation

    Nitrogen, unlike its neighbor carbon, is much less likely to form chains that are stable at room temperature. But, there do exist nitrogen chains; for example, in solid nitrogen, triazane, azide anion and triazoles. [12] [13] Longer series with eight or more nitrogen atoms, such as 1,1'-Azobis-1,2,3-triazole, have been synthesized. These ...

  9. Oxidation state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidation_state

    In chemistry, the oxidation state, or oxidation number, is the hypothetical charge of an atom if all of its bonds to other atoms were fully ionic.It describes the degree of oxidation (loss of electrons) of an atom in a chemical compound.
