  2. VSEPR theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VSEPR_theory

    Valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory (/ ˈ v ɛ s p ər, v ə ˈ s ɛ p ər / VESP-ər, [1]: 410 və-SEP-ər [2]) is a model used in chemistry to predict the geometry of individual molecules from the number of electron pairs surrounding their central atoms. [3]

  3. Iodine heptafluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodine_heptafluoride

    Iodine heptafluoride is an interhalogen compound with the chemical formula I F 7. [2] [3] It has an unusual pentagonal bipyramidal structure, with D 5h symmetry, as predicted by VSEPR theory. [4]

  4. Isocyanic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isocyanic_acid

    [10] [11] If so, then the canonical form H−N + ≡C−O − is the major resonance structure. However, classic vibrational analysis would indicate that the 2268.8 cm −1 is the asymmetric N=C=O stretch, as per Colthup et al., [ 12 ] as well as the NIST Chemistry WebBook, [ 13 ] which also reports the corresponding symmetric N=C=O stretch ...

  5. Molecular graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_graph

    A chemical graph is a labeled graph whose vertices correspond to the atoms of the compound and edges correspond to chemical bonds. Its vertices are labeled with the kinds of the corresponding atoms and edges are labeled with the types of bonds. [1] For particular purposes any of the labelings may be ignored. A hydrogen-depleted molecular graph ...

  6. Molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_geometry

    In accordance with the VSEPR (valence-shell electron pair repulsion theory), the bond angles between the electron bonds are arccos(− ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠) = 109.47°. For example, methane (CH 4) is a tetrahedral molecule. Octahedral: Octa-signifies eight, and -hedral relates to a face of a solid, so "octahedral" means "having eight faces". The bond ...

  7. HCN channel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HCN_channel

    HCN4 is the main isoform expressed in the sinoatrial node, but low levels of HCN1 and HCN2 have also been reported.The current through HCN channels, called the pacemaker current (I f), plays a key role in the generation and modulation of cardiac rhythmicity, [13] as they are responsible for the spontaneous depolarization in pacemaker action potentials in the heart.

  8. Octahedral molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octahedral_molecular_geometry

    The energy gap is labeled Δ o, which varies according to the number and nature of the ligands. If the symmetry of the complex is lower than octahedral, the e g and t 2g levels can split further. For example, the t 2g and e g sets split further in trans-ML a 4 L b 2.

  9. Tetrahedral molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedral_molecular_geometry

    In a tetrahedral molecular geometry, a central atom is located at the center with four substituents that are located at the corners of a tetrahedron.The bond angles are arccos(− ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠) = 109.4712206...° ≈ 109.5° when all four substituents are the same, as in methane (CH 4) [1] [2] as well as its heavier analogues.
