    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemistry_mnemonics

    A mnemonic is a memory aid used to improve long-term memory and make the process of consolidation easier. Many chemistry aspects, rules, names of compounds, sequences of elements, their reactivity, etc., can be easily and efficiently memorized with the help of mnemonics.

  3. AP Chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_Chemistry

    The 2014 AP Chemistry exam was the first administration of a redesigned test as a result of a redesigning of the AP Chemistry course. The exam format is now different from the previous years, with 60 multiple choice questions (now with only four answer choices per question), 3 long free response questions, and 4 short free response questions.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Placement_exams

    Advanced Placement (AP) examinations are exams offered in United States by the College Board and are taken each May by students. The tests are the culmination of year-long Advanced Placement (AP) courses, which are typically offered at the high school level. AP exams (with few exceptions [1]) have a multiple-choice section and a free-response ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes_lens

    The Stokes lens also known as variable power cross cylinder lens, in its standard version, is a lens combination consisted of equal but opposite (one plano-convex and other plano-concave) power cylindrical lenses attached together in a way so that the lenses be rotated in opposite directions.

  6. Stigmator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stigmator

    A recent development are computer-controlled stigmators, which usually use the Fourier transform of the image to find the ideal stigmator setting. The Fourier transform of an astigmatic image is usually elliptically shaped. [13] For a stigmatic image, it is round, this property can be used by algorithms to reduce the astigmatic aberration. [4]

    The intended putt (the path from the ball to the hole) corresponds to Alpins' target-induced astigmatism vector (TIA), which is the astigmatic change (by magnitude and axis) the surgeon intends to induce to correct the patient's pre-existing astigmatism to the derived or calculated target.

    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 ...

  9. Air-free technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-free_technique

    These techniques prevent the compounds from reacting with components of air, usually water and oxygen; less commonly carbon dioxide and nitrogen. A common theme among these techniques is the use of a fine (10 0 –10 −3 Torr) or high (10 −3 –10 −6 Torr) vacuum to remove air, and the use of an inert gas: preferably argon, but often nitrogen.
