    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_chemical_formulae

    This is a list of common chemical compounds with chemical formulae and CAS numbers, indexed by formula. This complements alternative listing at list of inorganic compounds . There is no complete list of chemical compounds since by nature the list would be infinite.

  3. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    [1] [2] [3] Introduced by Gilbert N. Lewis in his 1916 article The Atom and the Molecule, a Lewis structure can be drawn for any covalently bonded molecule, as well as coordination compounds. [ 4 ] Lewis structures extend the concept of the electron dot diagram by adding lines between atoms to represent shared pairs in a chemical bond.

  4. Glossary of chemistry terms - Wikipedia

    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 ...

  5. Structural formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_formula

    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. [1]

  6. Tin(II) chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tin(II)_chloride

    The lone pair of electrons in such complexes is available for bonding, however, and therefore the complex itself can act as a Lewis base or ligand. This seen in the ferrocene-related product of the following reaction: SnCl 2 + Fe(η 5-C 5 H 5)(CO) 2 HgCl → Fe(η 5-C 5 H 5)(CO) 2 SnCl 3 + Hg

  7. SN2 reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SN2_reaction

    Competition experiment between SN2 and E2. With ethyl bromide, the reaction product is predominantly the substitution product. As steric hindrance around the electrophilic center increases, as with isobutyl bromide, substitution is disfavored and elimination is the predominant reaction. Other factors favoring elimination are the strength of the ...

  8. Polysulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polysulfide

    The compound (C 5 H 5) 2 TiS 5 is an example of a polysulfide complex. Polysulfides are a class of chemical compounds derived from anionic chains of sulfur atoms. [1] There are two main classes of polysulfides: inorganic and organic. The inorganic polysulfides have the general formula S 2− n. These anions are the conjugate bases of ...

  9. Sulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfide

    Sulfide (also sulphide in British English) [2] is an inorganic anion of sulfur with the chemical formula S 2− or a compound containing one or more S 2− ions. Solutions of sulfide salts are corrosive. Sulfide also refers to large families of inorganic and organic compounds, e.g. lead sulfide and dimethyl sulfide.
