  2. Gibbs free energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbs_free_energy

    Its symbol is Δ f G˚. All elements in their standard states (diatomic oxygen gas, graphite, etc.) have standard Gibbs free energy change of formation equal to zero, as there is no change involved. Δ f G = Δ f G˚ + RT ln Q f, where Q f is the reaction quotient. At equilibrium, Δ f G = 0, and Q f = K, so the equation becomes Δ f G˚ = − ...

    Also called Indianite. A mineral from the lime-rich end of the plagioclase group of minerals. Anorthites are usually silicates of calcium and aluminium occurring in some basic igneous rocks, typically those produced by the contact metamorphism of impure calcareous sediments. anticline An arched fold in which the layers usually dip away from the fold axis. Contrast syncline. aphanic Having the ...

  5. List of prime knots - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_prime_knots

    In knot theory, prime knots are those knots that are indecomposable under the operation of knot sum. The prime knots with ten or fewer crossings are listed here for quick comparison of their properties and varied naming schemes.

  7. Prime knot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_knot

    Simplest prime link. In knot theory, a prime knot or prime link is a knot that is, in a certain sense, indecomposable. Specifically, it is a non-trivial knot which cannot be written as the knot sum of two non-trivial knots. Knots that are not prime are said to be composite knots or composite links. It can be a nontrivial problem to determine ...

    Stevedore knot (mathematics), a prime knot with crossing number 6; Three-twist knot is the twist knot with three-half twists, also known as the 5 2 knot. Trefoil knot A knot with crossing number 3; Unknot; Knot complement, a compact 3 manifold obtained by removing an open neighborhood of a proper embedding of a tame knot from the 3-sphere.

  9. Geology of the Pearl River Delta - Wikipedia

    The modern configuration of the Pearl River Delta emerged during the second marine transgression, which took place approximately 7500 years ago. [3] To elucidate the factors driving the evolution of the present delta, a three-stage evolutionary model has been proposed.
