  2. Clock position - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_position

    The clock system is easily converted into a 360 degree system for more precise denotation. One bearing, or point, is termed an azimuth. [2] The convention is that of analytic geometry: the y-axis at zero degrees is the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. Angles grow larger in the clockwise direction. Thus, directly to port is at 270 degrees.

  3. Aromatic ring current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aromatic_ring_current

    A diagram of an aromatic ring current. B 0 is the applied magnetic field, the red arrow indicating its direction. The orange ring shows the direction of the ring current, and the purple rings show the direction of the induced magnetic field.

  4. Clockwise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clockwise

    Clockwise motion (abbreviated CW) proceeds in the same direction as a clock's hands relative to the observer: from the top to the right, then down and then to the left, and back up to the top. The opposite sense of rotation or revolution is (in Commonwealth English ) anticlockwise ( ACW ) or (in North American English ) counterclockwise ( CCW ...

    are arranged around the chiral center carbon atom. With the hydrogen atom away from the viewer, if the arrangement of the CO→R→N groups around the carbon atom as center is counter-clockwise, then it is the L form. [14] If the arrangement is clockwise, it is the D form. As usual, if the molecule itself is oriented differently, for example ...

  6. Dihedral angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihedral_angle

    In chemistry, it is the clockwise angle between half-planes through two sets of three atoms, having two atoms in common. In solid geometry, it is defined as the union of a line and two half-planes that have this line as a common edge. In higher dimensions, a dihedral angle represents the angle between two hyperplanes.

    Chemistry, not moral failing, accounts for the brain’s unwinding. In the laboratories that study drug addiction, researchers have found that the brain becomes conditioned by the repeated dopamine rush caused by heroin. “The brain is not designed to handle it,” said Dr. Ruben Baler, a scientist with the National Institute on Drug Abuse.

  9. Specific rotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_rotation

    In chemistry, specific rotation ([α]) is a property of a chiral chemical compound. [ 1 ] : 244 It is defined as the change in orientation of monochromatic plane-polarized light , per unit distance–concentration product, as the light passes through a sample of a compound in solution.
