  2. Beryllium hydroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beryllium_hydroxide

    Beryllium hydroxide, Be(OH) 2, is an amphoteric hydroxide, dissolving in both acids and alkalis. Industrially, it is produced as a by-product in the extraction of beryllium metal from the ores beryl and bertrandite. [7] The natural pure beryllium hydroxide is rare (in form of the mineral behoite, orthorhombic) or very rare (clinobehoite ...

    The compound in which a benzene ring is fused to arsole — typically on the carbon atoms 3 and 4 — is known as benzarsole. [3] Cumene (C 9 H 12), an aromatic hydrocarbon used in the production of phenol and acetone. Cummingtonite ((Mg,Fe 2+) 2 (Mg,Fe 2+) 5 Si 8 O 22 (OH) 2), a magnesium-iron silicate hydroxide, first identified in Cummington ...

    Because the S 2− anion has a subscript of 2 in the formula (giving a 4− charge), the compound must be balanced with a 4+ charge on the Pb cation (lead can form cations with a 4+ or a 2+ charge). Thus, the compound is made of one Pb 4+ cation to every two S 2− anions, the compound is balanced, and its name is written as lead(IV) sulfide.

  7. List of esters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_esters

    An ester of carboxylic acid.R stands for any group (organic or inorganic) and R′ stands for organyl group.. In chemistry, an ester is a compound derived from an acid (organic or inorganic) in which the hydrogen atom (H) of at least one acidic hydroxyl group (−OH) of that acid is replaced by an organyl group (−R).

    For example, a metal oxide such as zinc oxide, ZnO, contains no hydrogen and so cannot donate a proton. Nevertheless, it can act as an acid by reacting with the hydroxide ion, a base: ZnO + 2 OH − + H 2 O → [Zn(OH) 4] 2−. Zinc oxide can also act as a base: ZnO + 2H + + 5 H 2 O → [Zn(H 2 O) 6] 2+

    The formula, Cu 2 CO 3 (OH) 2 shows that it is halfway between copper carbonate and copper hydroxide. Indeed, in the past the formula was written as CuCO 3 ·Cu(OH) 2. The crystal structure is made up of copper, carbonate and hydroxide ions. [37] The mineral atacamite is an example of a basic chloride. It has the formula, Cu 2 Cl(OH) 3.
