  2. g-force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-force

    For objects likewise, the question of whether they can withstand the mechanical g-force without damage is the same for any type of g-force. For example, upward acceleration (e.g., increase of speed when going up or decrease of speed when going down) on Earth feels the same as being stationary on a celestial body with a higher surface gravity ...

  3. Dispersion stabilized molecules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersion_stabilized...

    Dispersion forces stabilizing a reactive moiety within a molecule is distinct from using steric bulk to protect that reactive moiety. Adding "steric hindrance" to a molecule's reactive site through bulky groups is a common strategy in molecular chemistry to stabilize reactive moieties within a molecule. [3]

  4. g-factor (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-factor_(physics)

    The spin magnetic moment of a charged, spin-1/2 particle that does not possess any internal structure (a Dirac particle) is given by [1] =, where μ is the spin magnetic moment of the particle, g is the g-factor of the particle, e is the elementary charge, m is the mass of the particle, and S is the spin angular momentum of the particle (with magnitude ħ/2 for Dirac particles).

  5. Chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemistry

    Chemistry is the scientific study of the properties and behavior of matter. [1] It is a physical science within the natural sciences that studies the chemical elements that make up matter and compounds made of atoms, molecules and ions: their composition, structure, properties, behavior and the changes they undergo during reactions with other substances.

  6. Steric effects - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steric_effects

    Regioselective dimethoxytritylation of the primary 5'-hydroxyl group of thymidine in the presence of a free secondary 3'-hydroxy group as a result of steric hindrance due to the dimethoxytrityl group and the ribose ring (Py = pyridine). [2] Steric hindrance is a consequence of steric effects. Steric hindrance is the slowing of chemical ...

  7. Mechanically interlocked molecular architectures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanically_interlocked...

    Examples of such molecules are rotaxanes, catenanes with covalently linked rings (so-called pretzelanes), and open knots (pseudoknots) which are abundant in proteins. The term "residual topology" was suggested on account of a striking similarity of these compounds to the well-established topologically nontrivial species, such as catenanes and ...

  8. Generalized forces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_forces

    In analytical mechanics (particularly Lagrangian mechanics), generalized forces are conjugate to generalized coordinates. They are obtained from the applied forces F i , i = 1, …, n , acting on a system that has its configuration defined in terms of generalized coordinates.

  9. Physisorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physisorption

    Van der Waals forces originate from the interactions between induced, permanent or transient electric dipoles. In comparison with chemisorption , in which the electronic structure of bonding atoms or molecules is changed and covalent or ionic bonds form, physisorption does not result in changes to the chemical bonding structure.
