Polythiazyl (polymeric sulfur nitride), (SN) x, is an electrically conductive, gold- or bronze-colored polymer with metallic luster.It was the first conductive inorganic polymer discovered [1] [2] and was also found to be a superconductor at very low temperatures (below 0.26 K).
The metallic luster of the minerals of the group resembles the luster of the surface of a fresh fracture of metals. It is clearly visible only on the non-oxidized surface of the sample. Minerals that have a metallic luster are, as a result, opaque and heavier than minerals that have a non-metallic luster.
Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acid–base extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...
Anthracite, also known as hard coal and black coal, is a hard, compact variety of coal that has a submetallic lustre.It has the highest carbon content, the fewest impurities, and the highest energy density of all types of coal and is the highest ranking of coals.
The atmosphere of Earth is composed of a layer of gas mixture that surrounds the Earth's planetary surface (both lands and oceans), known collectively as air, with variable quantities of suspended aerosols and particulates (which create weather features such as clouds and hazes), all retained by Earth's gravity.
Oxygen is most commonly produced by fractional distillation, in which air is cooled to a liquid, then warmed, allowing all the components of air except for oxygen to turn to gases and escape. Fractionally distilling air several times can produce 99.5% pure oxygen. [63] Another method with which oxygen is produced is to send a stream of dry ...
The noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon) were previously known as 'inert gases' because of their perceived lack of participation in any chemical reactions. The reason for this is that their outermost electron shells (valence shells) are completely filled, so that they have little tendency to gain or lose electrons.
