  2. Joule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule

    This is the definition declared in the modern International System of Units in 1960. [13] The definition of the joule as J = kg⋅m 2 ⋅s −2 has remained unchanged since 1946, but the joule as a derived unit has inherited changes in the definitions of the second (in 1960 and 1967), the metre (in 1983) and the kilogram .

  3. Glossary of chemistry terms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_chemistry_terms

    This glossary of chemistry terms is a list of terms and definitions relevant to chemistry, including chemical laws, diagrams and formulae, laboratory tools, glassware, and equipment. Chemistry is a physical science concerned with the composition, structure, and properties of matter , as well as the changes it undergoes during chemical reactions ...

  4. Joule-second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule-second

    The joule-second also appears in quantum mechanics within the definition of the Planck constant. [2] Angular momentum is the product of an object's moment of inertia, in units of kg⋅m 2 and its angular velocity in units of rad⋅s −1. This product of moment of inertia and angular velocity yields kg⋅m 2 ⋅s −1 or the joule-second.

  6. Chemical symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_symbol

    Chemical symbols are the abbreviations used in chemistry, mainly for chemical elements; but also for functional groups, chemical compounds, and other entities. Element symbols for chemical elements, also known as atomic symbols , normally consist of one or two letters from the Latin alphabet and are written with the first letter capitalised.

  7. Term symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Term_symbol

    In atomic physics, a term symbol is an abbreviated description of the total spin and orbital angular momentum quantum numbers of the electrons in a multi-electron atom.So while the word symbol suggests otherwise, it represents an actual value of a physical quantity.

  8. J-coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J-coupling

    The full form of the J-coupling interaction between spins 'I j and I k on the same molecule is: H = 2π I j · J jk · I k. where J jk is the J-coupling tensor, a real 3 × 3 matrix. It depends on molecular orientation, but in an isotropic liquid it reduces to a number, the so-called scalar coupling. In 1D NMR, the scalar coupling leads to ...

  9. Joule per mole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule_per_mole

    The joule per mole (symbol: J·mol −1 or J/mol) is the unit of energy per amount of substance in the International System of Units (SI), such that energy is measured in joules, and the amount of substance is measured in moles. It is also an SI derived unit of molar thermodynamic energy defined as the energy equal to one joule in one mole of ...
