  2. Ball-and-stick model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball-and-stick_model

    In a good model, the angles between the rods should be the same as the angles between the bonds, and the distances between the centers of the spheres should be proportional to the distances between the corresponding atomic nuclei. The chemical element of each atom is often indicated by the sphere's color. [2]

  3. Bond graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_graph

    As a word bond graph, this system would look like: A half-arrow is used to provide a sign convention, so if the engine is doing work when τ and ω are positive, then the diagram would be drawn: This system can also be represented in a more general method. This involves changing from using the words, to symbols representing the same items.

  4. Seesaw molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seesaw_molecular_geometry

    The seesaw geometry occurs when a molecule has a steric number of 5, with the central atom being bonded to 4 other atoms and 1 lone pair (AX 4 E 1 in AXE notation). An atom bonded to 5 other atoms (and no lone pairs) forms a trigonal bipyramid with two axial and three equatorial positions, but in the seesaw geometry one of the atoms is replaced ...

  5. VSEPR theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VSEPR_theory

    For example, the double-bond carbons in alkenes like C 2 H 4 are AX 3 E 0, but the bond angles are not all exactly 120°. Likewise, SOCl 2 is AX 3 E 1, but because the X substituents are not identical, the X–A–X angles are not all equal. Based on the steric number and distribution of Xs and Es, VSEPR theory makes the predictions in the ...

  6. Flat-four engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat-four_engine

    This engine was mounted longitudinally in the chassis, water-cooled, produced 9 hp (7 kW) and had a displacement of 2.4 L (146 cu in). Unusually for its day, the bore and stroke were equal, with each being 95 mm (3.7 in). In 1902 the Buffum automobile was equipped with opposed four cylinder engines that were rated at 16 horsepower.

  7. Bond length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_length

    The existence of a very long C–C bond length of up to 290 pm is claimed in a dimer of two tetracyanoethylene dianions, although this concerns a 2-electron-4-center bond. [4] [5] This type of bonding has also been observed in neutral phenalenyl dimers. The bond lengths of these so-called "pancake bonds" [6] are up to 305 pm. Shorter than ...

  8. Pentagonal bipyramidal molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagonal_bipyramidal...

    The pentagonal bipyramid is a case where bond angles surrounding an atom are not identical (see also trigonal bipyramidal molecular geometry). [1] [page needed] This is one of the three common shapes for heptacoordinate transition metal complexes, along with the capped octahedron and the capped trigonal prism. [2] [3] [page needed]

  9. Dewar–Chatt–Duncanson model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dewar–Chatt–Duncanson...

    Both of these effects tend to reduce the carbon-carbon bond order, leading to an elongated C−C distance and a lowering of its vibrational frequency. In Zeise's salt K[PtCl 3 (C 2 H 4)]. H 2 O the C−C bond length has increased to 134 picometres from 133 pm for ethylene. In the nickel compound Ni(C 2 H 4)(PPh 3) 2 the value is 143 pm.
