  2. Transition metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transition_metal

    The period 6 and 7 transition metals also add core (n − 2)f 14 electrons, which are omitted from the tables below. The p orbitals are almost never filled in free atoms (the one exception being lawrencium due to relativistic effects that become important at such high Z), but they can contribute to the chemical bonding in transition metal ...

  3. Heteropolymetalate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heteropolymetalate

    The metal atoms are usually group 6 (Mo, W) or less commonly group 5 (V, Nb, Ta) transition metals in their highest oxidation states. They are usually colorless to orange, diamagnetic anions. For most heteropolymetalates the W, Mo, or V, is complemented by main group oxyanions phosphate and silicate .

  4. List of chemistry mnemonics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemistry_mnemonics

    A mnemonic is a memory aid used to improve long-term memory and make the process of consolidation easier. Many chemistry aspects, rules, names of compounds, sequences of elements, their reactivity, etc., can be easily and efficiently memorized with the help of mnemonics.

  5. Polyoxometalate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyoxometalate

    The phosphotungstate anion, an example of a polyoxometalate. In chemistry, a polyoxometalate (abbreviated POM) is a polyatomic ion, usually an anion, that consists of three or more transition metal oxyanions linked together by shared oxygen atoms to form closed 3-dimensional frameworks.

  6. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    Periodic table of the chemical elements showing the most or more commonly named sets of elements (in periodic tables), and a traditional dividing line between metals and nonmetals. The f-block actually fits between groups 2 and 3; it is usually shown at the foot of the table to save horizontal space.

  7. Group 12 element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_12_element

    It is "typically the second most abundant transition metal in organisms" after iron and it is the only metal which appears in all enzyme classes. [111] There are 2–4 grams of zinc [ 114 ] distributed throughout the human body, [ 115 ] and it plays "ubiquitous biological roles". [ 116 ]

  8. Crystal field theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_field_theory

    The crystal field stabilization energy (CFSE) is the stability that results from placing a transition metal ion in the crystal field generated by a set of ligands. It arises due to the fact that when the d -orbitals are split in a ligand field (as described above), some of them become lower in energy than before with respect to a spherical ...

  9. Isomorphism (crystallography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isomorphism_(crystallography)

    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.
