  2. Helium compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helium_compounds

    [N]/[He] atomic nitrogen impurity helium is produced when a radio frequency discharge in a nitrogen helium mixture is absorbed into superfluid helium, it can have up to 4% nitrogen atoms included. [39] The substance resembles crumbly snow and condenses and settles from the liquid helium. [39] It also contains variable proportions of N 2 ...

  3. Abundance of the chemical elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abundance_of_the_chemical...

    The abundance of elements in the Sun and outer planets is similar to that in the universe. Due to solar heating, the elements of Earth and the inner rocky planets of the Solar System have undergone an additional depletion of volatile hydrogen, helium, neon, nitrogen, and carbon (which volatilizes as methane). The crust, mantle, and core of the ...

  4. Gas composition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_composition

    The Gas composition of any gas can be characterised by listing the pure substances it contains, and stating for each substance its proportion of the gas mixture's molecule count.Nitrogen N 2 78.084 Oxygen O 2 20.9476 Argon Ar 0.934 Carbon Dioxide CO 2 0.0314

    They are composed entirely of single bonds and are saturated with hydrogen. The formula for acyclic saturated hydrocarbons (i.e., alkanes) is C n H 2n+2. [1]: 623 The most general form of saturated hydrocarbons, (whether linear or branched species, and whether with or without one or more rings) is C n H 2n+2(1-r), where r is the

  6. Atomicity (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    Atomicity is the total number of atoms present in a molecule of an element. For example, each molecule of oxygen (O 2) is composed of two oxygen atoms. Therefore, the atomicity of oxygen is 2. [1] In older contexts, atomicity is sometimes equivalent to valency. Some authors also use the term to refer to the maximum number of valencies observed ...

  7. Explainer-What is helium and why is it used in rockets? - AOL

    www.aol.com/news/explainer-helium-why-used...

    Helium is inert - it does not react with other substances or combust - and its atomic number is 2, making it the second lightest element after hydrogen. Rockets need to achieve specific speeds and ...

  8. Helium hydride ion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helium_hydride_ion

    2, the helium hydride ion has a permanent dipole moment, which makes its spectroscopic characterization easier. [8] The calculated dipole moment of HeH + is 2.26 or 2.84 D. [9] The electron density in the ion is higher around the helium nucleus than the hydrogen. 80% of the electron charge is closer to the helium nucleus than to the hydrogen ...

  9. Noble gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noble_gas

    Liquid neon, although it does not reach temperatures as low as liquid helium, also finds use in cryogenics because it has over 40 times more refrigerating capacity than liquid helium and over three times more than liquid hydrogen. [78] Helium is used as a component of breathing gases to replace nitrogen, due its low solubility in fluids ...
