  2. Bond length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_length

    It is generally considered the average length for a carbon–carbon single bond, but is also the largest bond length that exists for ordinary carbon covalent bonds. Since one atomic unit of length (i.e., a Bohr radius) is 52.9177 pm, the C–C bond length is 2.91 atomic units, or approximately three Bohr radii long.

  3. Angstrom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angstrom

    Some popular US dictionaries list only the spelling angstrom. [2] [3] The unit's symbol is Å, which is a letter of the Swedish alphabet, regardless of how the unit is spelled. [1] [4] [3] However, "A" [citation needed] or "A.U." [11] [7] may be used in less formal contexts or typographically limited media.

  4. Molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_geometry

    Molecular geometries can be specified in terms of 'bond lengths', 'bond angles' and 'torsional angles'. The bond length is defined to be the average distance between the nuclei of two atoms bonded together in any given molecule. A bond angle is the angle formed between three atoms across at least two bonds.

  6. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(length)

    The picometre (SI symbol: pm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 −12 metres (⁠ 1 / 1 000 000 000 000 ⁠ m = 0. 000 000 000 001 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude this section lists lengths between 10 −12 and 10 −11 m (1 pm and 10 pm). 1 pm – distance between atomic nuclei in a white dwarf [citation ...

  7. Covalent radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covalent_radius

    The covalent radius, r cov, is a measure of the size of an atom that forms part of one covalent bond. It is usually measured either in picometres (pm) or angstroms (Å), with 1 Å = 100 pm. In principle, the sum of the two covalent radii should equal the covalent bond length between two atoms, R(AB) = r(A) + r(B).

  8. Atomic spacing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_spacing

    Bond length can be determined between different elements in molecules by using the atomic radii of the atoms. Carbon bonds with itself to form two covalent network solids. [2]
