  2. Nonconformity (quality) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonconformity_(quality)

    In quality management, a nonconformity (sometimes referred to as a non conformance or nonconformance or defect) is a deviation from a specification, a standard, or an expectation. Nonconformities or nonconformance can be classified in seriousness multiple ways, though a typical classification scheme may have three to four levels, including ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neighbouring_group...

    In organic chemistry, neighbouring group participation (NGP, also known as anchimeric assistance) has been defined by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) as the interaction of a reaction centre with a lone pair of electrons in an atom or the electrons present in a sigma or pi bond contained within the parent molecule but not conjugated with the reaction centre.

    Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acid–base extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...

  5. Functional group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_group

    In organic chemistry, a functional group is a substituent or moiety in a molecule that causes the molecule's characteristic chemical reactions. The same functional group will undergo the same or similar chemical reactions regardless of the rest of the molecule's composition.

    Non-conformists of the 1930s, an avantgarde movement during the inter-war period in France; Counterculture of the 1960s; Civil disobedience, the active, professed refusal of a citizen to comply with certain laws, demands, or commands of a government

  7. Group (periodic table) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_(periodic_table)

    In the periodic table of the elements, each column is a group. In chemistry, a group (also known as a family) [1] is a column of elements in the periodic table of the chemical elements. There are 18 numbered groups in the periodic table; the 14 f-block columns, between groups 2 and 3, are not numbered.

  8. Pendant group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pendant_group

    In IUPAC nomenclature of chemistry, a pendant group (sometimes spelled pendent) or side group is a group of atoms attached to a backbone chain of a long molecule, usually a polymer. Pendant groups are different from pendant chains, as they are neither oligomeric nor polymeric. [2] For example, the phenyl groups are the pendant groups on a ...

  9. Normal subgroup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_subgroup

    A normal subgroup of a normal subgroup of a group need not be normal in the group. That is, normality is not a transitive relation. The smallest group exhibiting this phenomenon is the dihedral group of order 8. [15] However, a characteristic subgroup of a normal subgroup is normal. [16] A group in which normality is transitive is called a T ...
