  2. Pi bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi_bond

    A typical triple bond, for example in acetylene (HC≡CH), consists of one sigma bond and two pi bonds in two mutually perpendicular planes containing the bond axis. Two pi bonds are the maximum that can exist between a given pair of atoms. Quadruple bonds are extremely rare and can be formed only between transition metal atoms, and consist of ...

  3. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    Periodic table of the chemical elements showing the most or more commonly named sets of elements (in periodic tables), and a traditional dividing line between metals and nonmetals. The f-block actually fits between groups 2 and 3; it is usually shown at the foot of the table to save horizontal space.

  4. Tennessine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennessine

    Tennessine is predicted to continue the trend; a strong pi character should be seen in the bonding of Ts 2. [4] [121] The molecule tennessine chloride (TsCl) is predicted to go further, being bonded with a single pi bond. [121] Aside from the unstable −1 state, three more oxidation states are predicted; +5, +3, and +1.

  5. Ball-and-stick model - Wikipedia

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

    Double and triple bonds are usually represented by two or three curved rods, respectively, or alternately by correctly positioned sticks for the sigma and pi bonds. 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 ...

  6. Phosphorus triiodide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus_triiodide

    Phosphorus triiodide (PI 3) is an inorganic compound with the formula PI 3. A red solid, it is too unstable to be stored for long periods of time; it is, nevertheless, commercially available. [ 2 ] It is widely used in organic chemistry for converting alcohols to alkyl iodides and also serves as a powerful reducing agent.

  7. Graphene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphene

    Sigma and pi bonds in graphene. Sigma bonds result from an overlap of sp 2 hybrid orbitals, whereas pi bonds emerge from tunneling between the protruding p z orbitals. Three of the four outer- shell electrons of each atom in a graphene sheet occupy three sp 2 hybrid orbitals – a combination of orbitals s, p x and p y — that are shared with ...

  8. Orbital hybridisation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_hybridisation

    In ethene, the two carbon atoms form a σ bond by overlapping one sp 2 orbital from each carbon atom. The π bond between the carbon atoms perpendicular to the molecular plane is formed by 2p–2p overlap. Each carbon atom forms covalent C–H bonds with two hydrogens by s–sp 2 overlap, all with 120° bond angles. The hydrogen–carbon bonds ...

  9. Cation–π interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cation–π_interaction

    The following table shows a series of Gibbs free energy of binding between benzene and several cations in the gas phase. [ 2 ] [ 6 ] For a singly charged species, the gas-phase interaction energy correlates with the ionic radius , r i o n {\displaystyle r_{\mathrm {ion} }} (non-spherical ionic radii are approximate).
