In atmospheric chemistry: NO x (or NOx) refers to the sum of NO and NO 2. [1] [2] NO y (or NOy) refers to the sum of NO x and all oxidized atmospheric odd-nitrogen species (e.g. the sum of NO x, HNO 3, HNO 2, etc.) NO z (or NOz) = NO y − NO x; Mixed Oxides of Nitrogen ("MON"): solutions of nitric oxide in dinitrogen tetroxide/nitrogen dioxide.
Deuterium is often represented by the chemical symbol D. Since it is an isotope of hydrogen with mass number 2, it is also represented by 2 H. IUPAC allows both D and 2 H, though 2 H is preferred. [8] A distinct chemical symbol is used for convenience because of the isotope's common use in various scientific processes.
Tritium (from Ancient Greek τρίτος (trítos) 'third') or hydrogen-3 (symbol T or 3 H) is a rare and radioactive isotope of hydrogen with a half-life of ~12.3 years. The tritium nucleus (t, sometimes called a triton) contains one proton and two neutrons, whereas the nucleus of the common isotope hydrogen-1 (protium) contains one proton and no neutrons, and that of non-radioactive hydrogen ...
Since protons and neutrons are both baryons, the mass number A is identical with the baryon number B of the nucleus (and also of the whole atom or ion). The mass number is different for each isotope of a given chemical element, and the difference between the mass number and the atomic number Z gives the number of neutrons (N) in the nucleus: N ...
Nitric oxide is a free radical: it has an unpaired electron, which is sometimes denoted by a dot in its chemical formula (• N=O or • NO). Nitric oxide is also a heteronuclear diatomic molecule, a class of molecules whose study spawned early modern theories of chemical bonding. [6] An important intermediate in industrial chemistry, nitric ...
No odd-neutron-number isotope is the most naturally abundant isotope in its element, except for beryllium-9 (which is the only stable beryllium isotope), nitrogen-14, and platinum-195. No stable nuclides have a neutron number of 19, 21, 35, 39, 45, 61, 89, 115, 123, or ≥ 127.
Nickel(II) oxide is the chemical compound with the formula NiO. It is the principal oxide of nickel. [4] It is classified as a basic metal oxide. Several million kilograms are produced annually of varying quality, mainly as an intermediate in the production of nickel alloys. [5] The mineralogical form of NiO, bunsenite, is very rare.
Liquid phase of MON contains no nitric oxide. [2] N 2 O 4 ⇌ 2NO 2. NO 2 + NO ⇌ N 2 O 3. A broad range of compositions is available, and can be denoted as MONi, where i represents the percentage of nitric oxide in the mixture (e.g. MON3 contains 3% nitric oxide, MON25 25% nitric oxide). An upper limit is MON40 (40% by weight).
