  2. The Philosophy of Composition - Wikipedia

    Even the term "Nevermore," he says, is based on logic following the "unity of effect." The sounds in the vowels in particular, he writes, have more meaning than the definition of the word itself. He had previously used words like "Lenore" for the same effect. The raven itself, Poe says, is meant to become symbolic by the end of the poem.

  3. Unity of science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unity_of_science

    The unity of science is a thesis in philosophy of science that says that all the sciences form a unified whole. The variants of the thesis can be classified as ontological (giving a unified account of the structure of reality) and/or as epistemic /pragmatic (giving a unified account of how the activities and products of science work).

  4. Chemical similarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_similarity

    Chemical similarity (or molecular similarity) refers to the similarity of chemical elements, molecules or chemical compounds with respect to either structural or functional qualities, i.e. the effect that the chemical compound has on reaction partners in inorganic or biological settings.

  5. Chemical file format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_file_format

    A chemical file format is a type of data file which is used specifically for depicting molecular data. One of the most widely used is the chemical table file format, which is similar to Structure Data Format files. They are text files that represent multiple chemical structure records and associated data fields.

  6. Steric factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steric_factor

    The steric factor, usually denoted ρ, [1] is a quantity used in collision theory.. Also called the probability factor, the steric factor is defined as the ratio between the experimental value of the rate constant and the one predicted by collision theory.

  7. Unity of opposites - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unity_of_opposites

    Thus, a unity of opposites is present in the universe simultaneously containing difference and sameness. An aphorism of Heraclitus illustrates the idea as follows: The road up and the road down are the same thing. (Hippolytus, Refutations 9.10.3) This is an example of a compresent unity of opposites. For, at the same time, this slanted road has ...

  8. Faraday-efficiency effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday-efficiency_effect

    Until recent decades it was common to assume that the release of hydrogen and oxygen gas during electrolysis of water always has a Faraday efficiency of 100%. Pons and Fleischmann, and other investigators who reported the finding of anomalous excess heat in electrolytic cells, [1] all relied on this popular assumption.

  9. Dispersity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersity

    The effects of reactor type on dispersity depend largely on the relative timescales associated with the reactor, and with the polymerization type. In conventional bulk free radical polymerization, the dispersity is often controlled by the proportion of chains that terminate via combination or disproportionation. [ 10 ]
