  2. Cohesion (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    Mercury exhibits more cohesion than adhesion with glass Rain water flux from a canopy. Among the forces that govern drop formation: cohesion, surface tension, Van der Waals force, Plateau–Rayleigh instability. Water, for example, is strongly cohesive as each molecule may make four hydrogen bonds to other water molecules in a tetrahedral ...

  3. Metallic bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metallic_bonding

    For example, elemental gallium consists of covalently-bound pairs of atoms in both liquid and solid-state—these pairs form a crystal structure with metallic bonding between them. Another example of a metal–metal covalent bond is the mercurous ion ( Hg 2+

  4. Wikipedia : Scientific peer review/Cohesion (chemistry)

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Cohesion_(chemistry)

    As the talk page says, the article, or rather paragraph, is copied and pasted from somewhere else. I was looking for information on chromatography and since cohesion is a very big part of the topic, I would have definitely though that the article would have more information on the relationship between cohesion and chromatography.

  5. Binder (material) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binder_(material)

    A binder or binding agent is any material or substance that holds or draws other materials together to form a cohesive whole mechanically, chemically, by adhesion or cohesion. More narrowly, binders are liquid or dough-like substances that harden by a chemical or physical process and bind fibres, filler powder and other particles added into it.

  6. Coupling reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupling_reaction

    In organic chemistry, a coupling reaction is a type of reaction in which two reactant molecules are bonded together. Such reactions often require the aid of a metal catalyst.

  7. 18-electron rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/18-electron_rule

    Compounds that obey the 18-electron rule are typically "exchange inert". Examples include [Co(NH 3) 6]Cl 3, Mo(CO) 6, and [Fe(CN) 6] 4−.In such cases, in general ligand exchange occurs via dissociative substitution mechanisms, wherein the rate of reaction is determined by the rate of dissociation of a ligand.

  8. Transpiration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transpiration

    The cohesion-tension theory explains how leaves pull water through the xylem. Water molecules stick together or exhibit cohesion. Water molecules stick together or exhibit cohesion. As a water molecule evaporates from the leaf's surface it pulls on the adjacent water molecule, creating a continuous water flow through the plant.

  9. Bond cleavage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_cleavage

    In chemistry, bond cleavage, or bond fission, is the splitting of chemical bonds. This can be generally referred to as dissociation when a molecule is cleaved into two or more fragments. [1] In general, there are two classifications for bond cleavage: homolytic and heterolytic, depending on the nature of the process.
