  2. IUPAC nomenclature of inorganic chemistry 2005 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUPAC_nomenclature_of...

    The element atomic symbol is italicised and preceded by kappa, κ. These symbols are placed after the portion of the ligand name that represents the ring, chain etc where the ligand is located. For example: pentaamminenitrito-κO-cobalt(III) specifies that the nitrite ligand is linking via the oxygen atom

  3. Kappa - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kappa

    Variant kappa Greek word καί written with a handwritten variant of kappa, from the Byzantine period. Kappa (/ ˈ k æ p ə /; [1] uppercase Κ, lowercase κ or cursive ϰ; Greek: κάππα, káppa) is the tenth letter of the Greek alphabet, representing the voiceless velar plosive IPA: sound in Ancient and Modern Greek.

  4. Greek letters used in mathematics, science, and engineering

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_letters_used_in...

    Greek letters are used in mathematics, science, engineering, and other areas where mathematical notation is used as symbols for constants, special functions, and also conventionally for variables representing certain quantities. In these contexts, the capital letters and the small letters represent distinct and unrelated entities.

  5. Heat capacity ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_capacity_ratio

    In thermal physics and thermodynamics, the heat capacity ratio, also known as the adiabatic index, the ratio of specific heats, or Laplace's coefficient, is the ratio of the heat capacity at constant pressure (C P) to heat capacity at constant volume (C V).

  6. Denticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denticity

    In coordination chemistry, denticity (from Latin dentis 'tooth') refers to the number of donor groups in a given ligand that bind to the central metal atom in a coordination complex. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In many cases, only one atom in the ligand binds to the metal, so the denticity equals one, and the ligand is said to be unidentate or monodentate .

  7. Relative permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_permittivity

    The relative static permittivity of a solvent is a relative measure of its chemical polarity. For example, water is very polar, and has a relative static permittivity of 80.10 at 20 °C while n-hexane is non-polar, and has a relative static permittivity of 1.89 at 20 °C. [26]

    Symbol Name Meaning SI unit of measure alpha: alpha particle: angular acceleration: radian per second squared (rad/s 2) fine-structure constant: unitless beta: velocity in terms of the speed of light c: unitless beta particle: gamma: Lorentz factor: unitless photon: gamma ray: shear strain: radian

  9. Molar conductivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_conductivity

    The molar conductivity of an electrolyte solution is defined as its conductivity divided by its molar concentration. [1] [2]=, where: κ is the measured conductivity (formerly known as specific conductance), [3]
