  2. Elements of art - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elements_of_art

    The element of value is compatible with the term luminosity, and can be "measured in various units designating electromagnetic radiation". [6] The difference in values is often called contrast, and references the lightest (white) and darkest (black) tones of a work of art, with an infinite number of grey variants in between. [6]

  3. Electron shell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_shell

    In 1913, Niels Bohr proposed a model of the atom, giving the arrangement of electrons in their sequential orbits. At that time, Bohr allowed the capacity of the inner orbit of the atom to increase to eight electrons as the atoms got larger, and "in the scheme given below the number of electrons in this [outer] ring is arbitrary put equal to the normal valency of the corresponding element".

  4. Characteristic X-ray - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_X-ray

    Outer-shell electrons then fall into the inner shell, emitting quantized photons with an energy level equivalent to the energy difference between the higher and lower states. Each element has a unique set of energy levels, and thus the transition from higher to lower energy levels produces X-rays with frequencies that are characteristic to each ...

  5. Outer sphere electron transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outer_sphere_electron_transfer

    Outer sphere refers to an electron transfer (ET) event that occurs between chemical species that remain separate and intact before, during, and after the ET event. [1] In contrast, for inner sphere electron transfer the participating redox sites undergoing ET become connected by a chemical bridge .

  6. Electron transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_transfer

    The first generally accepted theory of ET was developed by Rudolph A. Marcus (Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1992) [8] to address outer-sphere electron transfer and was based on a transition-state theory approach. The Marcus theory of electron transfer was then extended to include inner-sphere electron transfer by Noel Hush and Marcus.

  7. Composition (visual arts) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_(visual_arts)

    The central visual element, known as element of design, formal element, or element of art, constitute the vocabulary with which the visual artist compose. These elements in the overall design usually relate to each other and to the whole art work. The elements of design are: Line — the visual path that enables the eye to move within the piece

  8. Electron configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_configuration

    For atoms with many electrons, this notation can become lengthy and so an abbreviated notation is used. The electron configuration can be visualized as the core electrons, equivalent to the noble gas of the preceding period, and the valence electrons: each element in a period differs only by the last few subshells. Phosphorus, for instance, is ...

  9. Marcus theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcus_theory

    In theoretical chemistry, Marcus theory is a theory originally developed by Rudolph A. Marcus, starting in 1956, to explain the rates of electron transfer reactions – the rate at which an electron can move or jump from one chemical species (called the electron donor) to another (called the electron acceptor).
