  2. 1,2-Dibromoethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,2-Dibromoethylene

    1,2-Dibromoethylene can be synthesized by halogenation of acetylene (C 2 H 2) with bromine (Br 2). [1] In order to prevent the formation of tetrahalogenated compounds, acetylene is used in excess, with Br 2 as the limiting reagent.

  3. List of chemical elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_elements

    A chemical element, often simply called an element, is a type of atom which has a specific number of protons in its atomic nucleus (i.e., a specific atomic number, or Z). [ 1 ] The definitive visualisation of all 118 elements is the periodic table of the elements , whose history along the principles of the periodic law was one of the founding ...

  4. Period (periodic table) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Period_(periodic_table)

    There are currently seven complete periods in the periodic table, comprising the 118 known elements. Any new elements will be placed into an eighth period; see extended periodic table. The elements are colour-coded below by their block: red for the s-block, yellow for the p-block, blue for the d-block, and green for the f-block.

  5. Periodic table (crystal structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table_(crystal...

    The following table gives the crystalline structure of the most thermodynamically stable form(s) for elements that are solid at standard temperature and pressure. Each element is shaded by a color representing its respective Bravais lattice, except that all orthorhombic lattices are grouped together.

  6. Chemical element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_element

    A chemical element is a chemical substance whose atoms all have the same number of protons.The number of protons is called the atomic number of that element. For example, oxygen has an atomic number of 8, meaning each oxygen atom has 8 protons in its nucleus.

  7. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    [4] Lewis structures extend the concept of the electron dot diagram by adding lines between atoms to represent shared pairs in a chemical bond. Lewis structures show each atom and its position in the structure of the molecule using its chemical symbol.

    Name given at one time to 227 Th, an isotope of thorium. RdTh: Radiothorium: 90: Name given at one time to 228 Th, an isotope of thorium. Rn: Radon: 86: From radium and emanation. Name restricted at one time to 222 Rn, an isotope of radon identified in the decay chain of radium. This named isotope later became the official name for element 86 ...

    Skeletal structural formula of Vitamin B 12.Many organic molecules are too complicated to be specified by a molecular formula.. The structural formula of a chemical compound is a graphic representation of the molecular structure (determined by structural chemistry methods), showing how the atoms are connected to one another.
