  2. Beryllium fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beryllium_fluoride

    Beryllium fluoride has distinctive optical properties. In the form of fluoroberyllate glass, it has the lowest refractive index for a solid at room temperature of 1.275. Its dispersive power is the lowest for a solid at 0.0093, and the nonlinear coefficient is also the lowest at 2 × 10 −14.

  3. Tetrafluoroberyllate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrafluoroberyllate

    H 2 BeF 4 is an acid that can be produced from Ag 2 BeF 4 and HCl. It only exists in aqueous solution. [11] Triglycine tetrafluoroberyllate (TGFB) is ferroelectric with a transition point of 70 °C. [26] The crystals can be formed by dissolving BeF 2 in water, adding HF and then glycine. When the solution is cooled triglycine ...

  4. Dihydrogen monoxide parody - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihydrogen_monoxide_parody

    Dihydrogen monoxide is a name for the water molecule, which comprises two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (H 2 O).. The dihydrogen monoxide parody is a parody that involves referring to water by its unfamiliar chemical systematic name "dihydrogen monoxide" (DHMO, or the chemical formula H 2 O) and describing some properties of water in a particularly concerning manner — such as the ...

  5. Fluorine compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorine_compounds

    The fluorine–fluorine bond of the difluorine molecule is relatively weak when compared to the bonds of heavier dihalogen molecules. The bond energy is significantly weaker than those of Cl 2 or Br 2 molecules and similar to the easily cleaved oxygen–oxygen bonds of peroxides or nitrogen–nitrogen bonds of hydrazines. [8]

  6. Coordinate covalent bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_covalent_bond

    In coordination chemistry, a coordinate covalent bond, [1] also known as a dative bond, [2] dipolar bond, [1] or coordinate bond [3] is a kind of two-center, two-electron covalent bond in which the two electrons derive from the same atom. The bonding of metal ions to ligands involves this kind of interaction. [4]

  7. Host–guest chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Host–guest_chemistry

    Crystal structure of a host–guest complex with a p-xylylenediammonium bound within a cucurbituril [3] A guest N 2 is bound within a host hydrogen-bonded capsule [4] "Host molecules" usually have "pore-like" structure that is able to capture a "guest molecules". Although called molecules, hosts and guests are often ions.

  8. Electron counting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_counting

    H 2 O; For a water molecule (H 2 O), using both neutral counting and ionic counting result in a total of 8 electrons. This figure of the water molecule shows how the electrons are distributed with the covalent counting method. The red ones are the oxygen electrons, and the blue ones are electrons from the hydrogen atoms.

  9. Closet flange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closet_flange

    In plumbing, a closet flange (also known as a toilet flange) is a pipe fitting (specifically, a type of flange) that both mounts a toilet to the floor and connects the closet bend to a drain pipe. The name comes from the term "water closet", the traditional name for a toilet. Closet flanges are typically made of brass, cast iron, ABS, PVC, and ...
