  2. Xenon tetrafluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenon_tetrafluoride

    Xenon tetrafluoride is a chemical compound with chemical formula XeF 4. It was the first discovered binary compound of a noble gas. [3] It is produced by the chemical reaction of xenon with fluorine: [4] [5] Xe + 2 F 2 → XeF 4. This reaction is exothermic, releasing an energy of 251 kJ/mol. [3]

  3. Method of image charges - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_image_charges

    The method of image charges (also known as the method of images and method of mirror charges) is a basic problem-solving tool in electrostatics.The name originates from the replacement of certain elements in the original layout with fictitious charges, which replicates the boundary conditions of the problem (see Dirichlet boundary conditions or Neumann boundary conditions).

  4. Electric dipole moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_dipole_moment

    The electric dipole moment is a measure of the separation of positive and negative electrical charges within a system: that is, a measure of the system's overall polarity. ...

  5. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    Note that the dipole moments drawn in this diagram represent the shift of the valence electrons as the origin of the charge, which is opposite the direction of the actual electric dipole moment. The bond dipole moment [5] uses the idea of electric dipole moment to measure the polarity of a chemical bond within a molecule. It occurs whenever ...

  6. Silicon tetrafluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_tetrafluoride

    Silicon tetrafluoride or tetrafluorosilane is a chemical compound with the formula Si F 4.This colorless gas is notable for having a narrow liquid range: its boiling point is only 4 °C above its melting point.

  7. Dipole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dipole

    An example in organic chemistry of the role of geometry in determining dipole moment is the cis and trans isomers of 1,2-dichloroethene. In the cis isomer the two polar C−Cl bonds are on the same side of the C=C double bond and the molecular dipole moment is 1.90 D.

  8. Reaction field method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_field_method

    Today, Ewald summation is the usual technique of choice, but for many quantities of interest both techniques yield equivalent results. For example, in Monte Carlo simulations of liquid crystals, (using both the hard spherocylinder [6] and Gay-Berne models [7]) the results from the reaction field method and Ewald summation are consistent ...

  9. Mathematical descriptions of the electromagnetic field

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_descriptions...

    These equations are inhomogeneous versions of the wave equation, with the terms on the right side of the equation serving as the source functions for the wave. As with any wave equation, these equations lead to two types of solution: advanced potentials (which are related to the configuration of the sources at future points in time), and ...
