  2. Bent's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bent's_rule

    These combinations are chosen to satisfy two conditions. First, the total amount of s and p orbital contributions must be equivalent before and after hybridisation. Second, the hybrid orbitals must be orthogonal to each other. [27] [28] If two hybrid orbitals were not orthogonal, by definition they would have nonzero orbital overlap. Electrons ...

  3. Orthogonal ligand-protein pair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonal_ligand-protein_pair

    Orthogonal ligand-protein pairs (also known as re-engineered ligand-receptor interfaces or re-engineered enzyme-substrate interactions) are a protein-ligand binding pair made to be independent of the original binding pair. This is done by taking a mutant protein (naturally occurring or selectively engineered), which is activated by a different ...

  4. Design of experiments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_of_experiments

    Example of orthogonal factorial design Orthogonality concerns the forms of comparison (contrasts) that can be legitimately and efficiently carried out. Contrasts can be represented by vectors and sets of orthogonal contrasts are uncorrelated and independently distributed if the data are normal.

  5. Wannier function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wannier_function

    Example of a localized Wannier function of titanium in barium titanate (BaTiO3) Although, like localized molecular orbitals, Wannier functions can be chosen in many different ways, [3] the original, [1] simplest, and most common definition in solid-state physics is as follows.

  6. Orthogonality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonality

    The line segments AB and CD are orthogonal to each other. In mathematics, orthogonality is the generalization of the geometric notion of perpendicularity.Whereas perpendicular is typically followed by to when relating two lines to one another (e.g., "line A is perpendicular to line B"), [1] orthogonal is commonly used without to (e.g., "orthogonal lines A and B").

  7. Molecular symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_symmetry

    Symmetry elements of formaldehyde. C 2 is a two-fold rotation axis. σ v and σ v ' are two non-equivalent reflection planes.. In chemistry, molecular symmetry describes the symmetry present in molecules and the classification of these molecules according to their symmetry.

  8. Ring flip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_flip

    An example is cyclopropane which, because of its planar geometry, has six fully eclipsed carbon and axial hydrogen bonds making the strain 116 kJ/mol (27.7 kcal/mol). [5] Strain can also be decreased when the carbon-carbon bond angles are close or at the preferred bond angle of 109.5°, meaning a ring having six tetrahedral carbons is typically ...

  9. Orthonormality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthonormality

    This definition can be formalized in Cartesian space by defining the dot product and specifying that two vectors in the plane are orthogonal if their dot product is zero. Similarly, the construction of the norm of a vector is motivated by a desire to extend the intuitive notion of the length of a vector to higher-dimensional spaces.
