    Protonated molecular hydrogen – H + 3; Trioxidane – H 2 O 3; Water - H 2 O [204] He. Sodium helide – Na 2 He; I. In. Indium(I) bromide – InBr;

  3. Molecular solid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_solid

    Typically, a molecular solid is ductile when it has isotropic intermolecular interactions. This allows for dislocation between layers of the crystal much like metals. [5] [8] [11] For example, plastic crystals are soft, resemble waxes and are easily deformed. One example of a ductile molecular solid, that can be bent 180°, is hexachlorobenzene ...

  4. Inorganic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inorganic_compound

    An inorganic compound is typically a chemical compound that lacks carbon–hydrogen bondsā  ‍ — ‍ that is, a compound that is not an organic compound. [1] [2] The study of inorganic compounds is a subfield of chemistry known as inorganic chemistry.

  5. Terpene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terpene

    Terpenes are colorless, although impure samples are often yellow. Boiling points scale with molecular size: terpenes, sesquiterpenes, and diterpenes respectively at 110, 160, and 220 °C. Being highly non-polar, they are insoluble in water. Being hydrocarbons, they are highly flammable and have low specific gravity (float on water).

  6. Glucosinolate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucosinolate

    The semisystematic naming of glucosinolates consists of the chemical name of the group "R" in the diagram followed by "glucosinolate", with or without a space. For example, allylglucosinolate and allyl glucosinolate refer to the same compound: both versions are found in the literature. [5] Isothiocyanates are conventionally written as two words ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_chemistry

    The scientific approach to food and nutrition arose with attention to agricultural chemistry in the works of J. G. Wallerius, Humphry Davy, and others.For example, Davy published Elements of Agricultural Chemistry, in a Course of Lectures for the Board of Agriculture (1813) in the United Kingdom which would serve as a foundation for the profession worldwide, going into a fifth edition.

  8. Bonding in solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonding_in_solids

    Regarding the organization of covalent bonds, recall that classic molecular solids, as stated above, consist of small, non-polar covalent molecules. The example given, paraffin wax , is a member of a family of hydrocarbon molecules of differing chain lengths, with high-density polyethylene at the long-chain end of the series.

  9. Lycopene - Wikipedia

    Aside from tomatoes or tomato products like ketchup, it is found in watermelons, grapefruits, red guavas, and baked beans. [4] It has no vitamin A activity. [4]In plants, algae, and other photosynthetic organisms, lycopene is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of many carotenoids, including beta-carotene, which is responsible for yellow, orange, or red pigmentation, photosynthesis, and ...
