The combustion of a match is an observable occurrence, or event, and therefore a phenomenon. A phenomenon (pl.: phenomena), sometimes spelled phaenomenon, is an observable event. [1]
An aromatic ring can assist in the formation of a carbocationic intermediate called a phenonium ion by delocalising the positive charge. When the following tosylate reacts with acetic acid in solvolysis then rather than a simple S N 2 reaction forming B, a 48:48:4 mixture of A, B (which are enantiomers) and C+D was obtained [2] [3] .
An artist's representation of how some people may see phosphenes by retinal stimulation. A phosphene is the phenomenon of seeing light without light entering the eye.The word phosphene comes from the Greek words phos (light) and phainein (to show).
In neurology, Lhermitte phenomenon, also called the barber chair phenomenon, is an uncomfortable "electrical" sensation that runs down the back and into the limbs.The sensation can feel like it goes up or down the spine.
Michael Faraday holding a piece of glass of the type he used to demonstrate the effect of magnetism on polarization of light, c. 1857.. By 1845, it was known through the work of Augustin-Jean Fresnel, Étienne-Louis Malus, and others that different materials are able to modify the direction of polarization of light when appropriately oriented, [4] making polarized light a very powerful tool to ...
Historically, nonclassical ions were invoked to explain unusually fast solvolyses of steroidal, norbornyl, and cyclopropyl halides. [4] [5] Explanations for these rates was once controversial.
The NASA Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Independent Study Team (UAPIST) was a panel of sixteen experts assembled in 2022 by the United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and chaired by David Spergel to recommend a roadmap for the analysis of unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs) by NASA and other organizations.
Ball-and-stick model of the benzenium ion. An arenium ion in organic chemistry is a cyclohexadienyl cation that appears as a reactive intermediate in electrophilic aromatic substitution. [1]
