  2. Octet rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octet_rule

    To form five bonds, the one s, three p and one d orbitals combine to form five sp 3 d hybrid orbitals which each share an electron pair with a halogen atom, for a total of 10 shared electrons, two more than the octet rule predicts. Similarly to form six bonds, the six sp 3 d 2 hybrid orbitals form six bonds with 12 shared electrons. [18]

  3. Laws of thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laws_of_thermodynamics

    The flow of heat is a form of energy transfer. Heat transfer is the natural process of moving energy to or from a system, other than by work or the transfer of matter. In a diathermal system, the internal energy can only be changed by the transfer of energy as heat: =.

  4. Hess's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hess's_law

    Hess's law states that the change of enthalpy in a chemical reaction is the same regardless of whether the reaction takes place in one step or several steps, provided the initial and final states of the reactants and products are the same. Enthalpy is an extensive property, meaning that its value is proportional to the system size. [4]

  5. Hypervalent molecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypervalent_molecule

    Additional modifications to the octet rule have been attempted to involve ionic characteristics in hypervalent bonding. As one of these modifications, in 1951, the concept of the 3-center 4-electron (3c-4e) bond , which described hypervalent bonding with a qualitative molecular orbital , was proposed.

  6. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    The nitrogen atom has only 6 electrons assigned to it. One of the lone pairs on an oxygen atom must form a double bond, but either atom will work equally well. Therefore, there is a resonance structure. Tie up loose ends. Two Lewis structures must be drawn: Each structure has one of the two oxygen atoms double-bonded to the nitrogen atom.

  7. Heat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat

    The molar heat capacity is the heat capacity per unit amount (SI unit: mole) of a pure substance, and the specific heat capacity, often called simply specific heat, is the heat capacity per unit mass of a material. Heat capacity is a physical property of a substance, which means that it depends on the state and properties of the substance under ...

    Biden highlighted the proposed rule as one of five steps. President Joe Biden on Tuesday proposed a new rule to address excessive heat in the workplace, warning — as tens of millions of people ...

  9. Electron counting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_counting

    The neutral counting method assumes each OH bond is split equally (each atom gets one electron from the bond). Thus both hydrogen atoms have an electron count of one. The oxygen atom has 6 valence electrons. The total electron count is 8, which agrees with the octet rule.
