  2. Ion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion

    There are additional names used for ions with multiple charges. For example, an ion with a −2 charge is known as a dianion and an ion with a +2 charge is known as a dication. A zwitterion is a neutral molecule with positive and negative charges at different locations within that molecule. [17]

  3. Spectroscopic notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectroscopic_notation

    This notation is used to specify electron configurations and to create the term symbol for the electron states in a multi-electron atom. When writing a term symbol, the above scheme for a single electron's orbital quantum number is applied to the total orbital angular momentum associated to an electron state. [4]

    A non-fullerene example is [As@Ni 12 As 20] 3−, an ion in which one arsenic (As) atom is trapped in a cage formed by the other 32 atoms. This notation was proposed in 1991 [3] with the discovery of fullerene cages (endohedral fullerenes), which can trap atoms such as La to form, for example, La@C 60 or La@C 82.

  6. Salt (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(chemistry)

    For example, the uranyl(2+) ion, UO 2+ 2 , has uranium in an oxidation state of +6, so would be called a dioxouranium(VI) ion in Stock nomenclature. [ 110 ] An even older naming system for metal cations, also still widely used, appended the suffixes -ous and -ic to the Latin root of the name, to give special names for the low and high oxidation ...

  7. Hydrogen ion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_ion

    The concentration of hydrogen ions and pH are inversely proportional; in an aqueous solution, an increased concentration of hydrogen ions yields a low pH, and subsequently, an acidic product. By definition, an acid is an ion or molecule that can donate a proton, and when introduced to a solution it will react with water molecules (H 2 O) to ...

  8. IUPAC nomenclature of inorganic chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUPAC_nomenclature_of...

    An ionic compound is named by its cation followed by its anion. See polyatomic ion for a list of possible ions. For cations that take on multiple charges, the charge is written using Roman numerals in parentheses immediately following the element name. For example, Cu(NO 3) 2 is copper(II) nitrate, because the charge of two nitrate ions (NO −

  9. Electron configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_configuration

    The second notation groups all orbitals with the same value of n together, corresponding to the "spectroscopic" order of orbital energies that is the reverse of the order in which electrons are removed from a given atom to form positive ions; 3d is filled before 4s in the sequence Ti 4+, Ti 3+, Ti 2+, Ti +, Ti.
