  2. Beryllium bromide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beryllium_bromide

    Beryllium bromide is the chemical compound with the formula BeBr 2. It is very hygroscopic and dissolves well in water . The Be 2+ cation, which is relevant to BeBr 2 , is characterized by the highest known charge density (Z/r = 6.45), making it one of the hardest cations and a very strong Lewis acid .

  3. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    In chemistry, polarity is a separation of electric charge leading to a molecule or its chemical groups having an electric dipole moment, with a negatively charged end and a positively charged end. Polar molecules must contain one or more polar bonds due to a difference in electronegativity between the bonded atoms.

  4. Mesomeric effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesomeric_effect

    In chemistry, the mesomeric effect (or resonance effect) is a property of substituents or functional groups in a chemical compound.It is defined as the polarity produced in the molecule by the interaction of two pi bonds or between a pi bond and lone pair of electrons present on an adjacent atom. [1]

  5. Cohesion (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cohesion_(chemistry)

    The polarity is due to the electronegativity of the atom of oxygen: oxygen is more electronegative than the atoms of hydrogen, so the electrons they share through the covalent bonds are more often close to oxygen rather than hydrogen. These are called polar covalent bonds, covalent bonds between atoms that thus become oppositely charged. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarity

    Polarity in embryogenesis, the animal and vegetal poles within a blastula; Cell polarity, differences in the shape, structure, and function of cells; Chemical polarity, in chemistry, a separation of electric charge; Magnetic polarity, north or south poles of a magnet; Polar reciprocation, a concept in geometry also known as polarity

  7. Inductive effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_effect

    In Organic chemistry, the inductive effect in a molecule is a local change in the electron density due to electron-withdrawing or electron-donating groups elsewhere in the molecule, resulting in a permanent dipole in a bond. [1] It is present in a σ (sigma) bond, unlike the electromeric effect which is present in a π (pi) bond.

  8. Pendant group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pendant_group

    In IUPAC nomenclature of chemistry, a pendant group (sometimes spelled pendent) or side group is a group of atoms attached to a backbone chain of a long molecule, usually a polymer. Pendant groups are different from pendant chains, as they are neither oligomeric nor polymeric. [2] For example, the phenyl groups are the pendant groups on a ...
