    (only simple oxides, oxyhalides, and related compounds, not hydroxides, carbonates, acids, or other compounds listed elsewhere) P. Pd Palladium ...

  3. Chemical compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_compound

    A chemical compound is a chemical substance composed of many identical molecules (or molecular entities) containing atoms from more than one chemical element held together by chemical bonds. A molecule consisting of atoms of only one element is therefore not a compound.

  4. Lists of molecules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_molecules

    This is an index of lists of molecules (i.e. by year, number of atoms, etc.). Millions of molecules have existed in the universe since before the formation of Earth. Three of them, carbon dioxide, water and oxygen were necessary for the growth of life.

  5. List of chemical compounds with unusual names - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_compounds...

    Chemical nomenclature, replete as it is with compounds with very complex names, is a repository for some names that may be considered unusual. A browse through the Physical Constants of Organic Compounds in the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics (a fundamental resource) will reveal not just the whimsical work of chemists, but the sometimes peculiar compound names that occur as the ...

  6. Inorganic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inorganic_compound

    An inorganic compound is typically a chemical compound that lacks carbon–hydrogen bondsā  ‍ — ‍ that is, a compound that is not an organic compound. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The study of inorganic compounds is a subfield of chemistry known as inorganic chemistry .

  7. Molecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecule

    For example, water is always composed of a 2:1 ratio of hydrogen to oxygen atoms, and ethanol (ethyl alcohol) is always composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen in a 2:6:1 ratio. However, this does not determine the kind of molecule uniquely – dimethyl ether has the same ratios as ethanol, for instance.

  8. Chemical substance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_substance

    All compounds are substances, but not all substances are compounds. A chemical compound can be either atoms bonded together in molecules or crystals in which atoms, molecules or ions form a crystalline lattice. Compounds based primarily on carbon and hydrogen atoms are called organic compounds, and all others are called inorganic compounds.

  9. Diatomic molecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diatomic_molecule

    Examples are gases carbon monoxide (CO), nitric oxide (NO), and hydrogen chloride (HCl). Many 1:1 binary compounds are not normally considered diatomic because they are polymeric at room temperature, but they form diatomic molecules when evaporated, for example gaseous MgO, SiO, and many others.
