  2. 2-group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-group

    Thus, both the first and second homotopy groups of a space are contained within its fundamental 2-group. As this 2-group also defines an action of π 1 (X,x) on π 2 (X,x) and an element of the cohomology group H 3 (π 1 (X,x), π 2 (X,x)), this is precisely the data needed to form the Postnikov tower of X if X is a pointed connected homotopy 2 ...

  3. Diagonal relationship - Wikipedia

    The corresponding group 2 salts are insoluble. (Think lattice and solvation energies). Both Li and Mg form covalent organometallic compounds. LiMe and MgMe 2 (cf. Grignard reagents) are both valuable synthetic reagents. The other group 1 and group 2 analogues are ionic and extremely reactive (and hence difficult to manipulate). [5]

  4. Leaving group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaving_group

    Nevertheless, one can generally examine acid dissociation constants to qualitatively predict or rationalize rate or reactivity trends relating to variation of the leaving group. Consistent with this picture, strong bases such as OH −, OR 2 and NR − 2 tend to make poor leaving groups, due their inability to stabilize a negative charge.

  5. Reactivity (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactivity_(chemistry)

    Both factors are actually distinct, and both commonly depend on temperature. For example, it is commonly asserted that the reactivity of alkali metals (Na, K, etc.) increases down the group in the periodic table, or that hydrogen's reactivity is evidenced by its reaction with oxygen. In fact, the rate of reaction of alkali metals (as evidenced ...

  6. Group theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_theory

    The concept of a group is central to abstract algebra: other well-known algebraic structures, such as rings, fields, and vector spaces, can all be seen as groups endowed with additional operations and axioms. Groups recur throughout mathematics, and the methods of group theory have influenced many parts of algebra.

  7. Multiply transitive group action - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiply_transitive_group...

    A 2-transitive group is a group such that there exists a group action that's 2-transitive and faithful. Similarly we can define sharply 2 -transitive group . Equivalently, g x = w {\displaystyle gx=w} and g y = z {\displaystyle gy=z} , since the induced action on the distinct set of pairs is g ( x , y ) = ( g x , g y ) {\displaystyle g(x,y)=(gx ...

  8. Group (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_(mathematics)

    The manipulations of the Rubik's Cube form the Rubik's Cube group. In mathematics, a group is a set with an operation that satisfies the following constraints: the operation is associative, it has an identity element, and every element of the set has an inverse element. Many mathematical structures are groups endowed with other properties.

  9. Reactivity series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactivity_series

    2 Na (s) + 2 H 2 O (l) →2 NaOH (aq) + H 2 (g) Metals in the middle of the reactivity series, such as iron, will react with acids such as sulfuric acid (but not water at normal temperatures) to give hydrogen and a metal salt, such as iron(II) sulfate: Fe (s) + H 2 SO 4 (l) → FeSO 4 (aq) + H 2 (g) There is some ambiguity at the borderlines ...
