Phosphorus pentasulfide is the inorganic compound with the formula P 2 S 5 or P 4 S 10 ().This yellow solid is the one of two phosphorus sulfides of commercial value. Samples often appear greenish-gray due to impurities.
In crystallography, a crystallographic point group is a three dimensional point group whose symmetry operations are compatible with a three dimensional crystallographic lattice. According to the crystallographic restriction it may only contain one-, two-, three-, four- and sixfold rotations or rotoinversions. This reduces the number of ...
In condensed matter physics and inorganic chemistry, the cation-anion radius ratio can be used to predict the crystal structure of an ionic compound based on the relative size of its atoms. It is defined as the ratio of the ionic radius of the positively charged cation to the ionic radius of the negatively charged anion in a cation-anion compound.
Point groups are used to describe the symmetries of geometric figures and physical objects such as molecules. Each point group can be represented as sets of orthogonal matrices M that transform point x into point y according to y = Mx. Each element of a point group is either a rotation (determinant of M = 1), or it is a reflection or improper ...
The 27 point groups in the table plus T, T d, T h, O and O h constitute 32 crystallographic point groups. Groups with n = ∞ are called limit groups or Curie groups . There are two more limit groups, not listed in the table: K (for Kugel , German for ball, sphere), the group of all rotations in 3-dimensional space; and K h , the group of all ...
The structure of hydrogen disulfide is similar to that of hydrogen peroxide, with C 2 point group symmetry. Both molecules are distinctly nonplanar. The dihedral angle between the H a −S−S and S−S−H b planes is 90.6°, compared with 111.5° in H 2 O 2. The H−S−S bond angle is 92°, close to 90° for unhybridized divalent sulfur. [1]
[2] [3] [page needed] Pentagonal bipyramids are claimed to be promising coordination geometries for lanthanide -based single-molecule magnets , since they present no extradiagonal crystal field terms, therefore minimising spin mixing, and all of their diagonal terms are in first approximation protected from low-energy vibrations, minimising ...
Forsterite. In chemistry, isomorphism has meanings both at the level of crystallography and at a molecular level. In crystallography, crystals are isomorphous if they have identical symmetry and if the atomic positions can be described with a set of parameters (unit cell dimensions and fractional coordinates) whose numerical values differ only slightly.
