  2. Square–cube law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squarecube_law

    Its volume would be multiplied by the cube of 2 and become 8 m 3. The original cube (1 m sides) has a surface area to volume ratio of 6:1. The larger (2 m sides) cube has a surface area to volume ratio of (24/8) 3:1. As the dimensions increase, the volume will continue to grow faster than the surface area. Thus the squarecube law.

  3. Square antiprismatic molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_antiprismatic...

    An example of a molecular species with square prismatic geometry (a slightly flattened cube) is octafluoroprotactinate(V), [PaF 8] 3–, as found in its sodium salt, Na 3 PaF 8. [6] While local cubic 8-coordination is common in ionic lattices (e.g., Ca 2+ in CaF 2 ), and some 8-coordinate actinide complexes are approximately cubic, there are no ...

  4. Packing problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packing_problems

    Packing circles in a square - closely related to spreading points in a unit square with the objective of finding the greatest minimal separation, d n, between points. To convert between these two formulations of the problem, the square side for unit circles will be L = 2 + 2 / d n {\displaystyle L=2+2/d_{n}} .

  5. Degenerate energy levels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degenerate_energy_levels

    Some examples of two-dimensional electron systems achieved experimentally include MOSFET, two-dimensional superlattices of Helium, Neon, Argon, Xenon etc. and surface of liquid Helium. The presence of degenerate energy levels is studied in the cases of Particle in a box and two-dimensional harmonic oscillator , which act as useful mathematical ...

  6. Square antiprism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_antiprism

    A crossed square antiprism is a star polyhedron, topologically identical to the square antiprism with the same vertex arrangement, but it can't be made uniform; the sides are isosceles triangles. Its vertex configuration is 3.3/2.3.4, with one triangle retrograde.

  7. Surface-area-to-volume ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-area-to-volume_ratio

    As an example, a cube with sides of length 1 cm will have a surface area of 6 cm 2 and a volume of 1 cm 3. The surface to volume ratio for this cube is thus = = . For a given shape, SA:V is inversely proportional to size.

  8. Cubic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_equation

    The other roots of the equation are obtained either by changing of cube root or, equivalently, by multiplying the cube root by a primitive cube root of unity, that is . This formula for the roots is always correct except when p = q = 0 , with the proviso that if p = 0 , the square root is chosen so that C ≠ 0 .

  9. Defining equation (physical chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defining_equation...

    For example, the mass of water might be written in subscripts as m H 2 O, m water, m aq, m w (if clear from context) etc., or simply as m(H 2 O). Another example could be the electronegativity of the fluorine-fluorine covalent bond, which might be written with subscripts χ F-F, χ FF or χ F-F etc., or brackets χ(F-F), χ(FF) etc. Neither is ...
