  2. E–Z notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E–Z_notation

    E–Z configuration, or the E–Z convention, is the IUPAC preferred method of describing the absolute stereochemistry of double bonds in organic chemistry.It is an extension of cis–trans isomer notation (which only describes relative stereochemistry) that can be used to describe double bonds having two, three or four substituents.

  3. List of character tables for chemically important 3D point groups

    The two rightmost columns indicate which irreducible representations describe the symmetry transformations of the three Cartesian coordinates (x, y and z), rotations about those three coordinates (R x, R y and R z), and functions of the quadratic terms of the coordinates(x 2, y 2, z 2, xy, xz, and yz).

  4. Fullerene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fullerene

    A fullerene is an allotrope of carbon whose molecules consist of carbon atoms connected by single and double bonds so as to form a closed or partially closed mesh, with fused rings of five to six atoms.

  5. Absolute configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_configuration

    In chemistry, absolute configuration refers to the spatial arrangement of atoms within a molecular entity (or group) that is chiral, and its resultant stereochemical description. [1] Absolute configuration is typically relevant in organic molecules where carbon is bonded to four different substituents .

  6. Charge number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_number

    Atomic numbers (Z) are a special case of charge numbers, referring to the charge number of an atomic nucleus, as opposed to the net charge of an atom or ion. The charge numbers for ions (and also subatomic particles ) are written in superscript, e.g., Na + is a sodium ion with charge number positive one (an electric charge of one elementary ...

  7. Z-matrix (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-matrix_(chemistry)

    In chemistry, the Z-matrix is a way to represent a system built of atoms.A Z-matrix is also known as an internal coordinate representation.It provides a description of each atom in a molecule in terms of its atomic number, bond length, bond angle, and dihedral angle, the so-called internal coordinates, [1] [2] although it is not always the case that a Z-matrix will give information regarding ...

    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 ...

  9. 1,5-Cyclooctadiene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,5-Cyclooctadiene

    1,5-Cyclooctadiene (also known as cycloocta-1,5-diene) is a cyclic hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C 8 H 12, specifically [−(CH 2) 2 −CH=CH−] 2.. There are three configurational isomers with this structure, that differ by the arrangement of the four C–C single bonds adjacent to the double bonds.
