  2. IUPAC numerical multiplier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUPAC_numerical_multiplier

    The numbers 200-900 would be confused easily with 22 to 29 if they were used in chemistry. khīlioi = 1000, diskhīlioi = 2000, triskhīlioi = 3000, etc. 13 to 19 are formed by starting with the Greek word for the number of ones, followed by και (the Greek word for 'and'), followed by δέκα (the Greek word for 'ten').

  3. Tetramer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetramer

    A tetramer (/ ˈ t ɛ t r ə m ər /) (tetra-, "four" + -mer, "parts") is an oligomer formed from four monomers or subunits. The associated property is called tetramery. An example from inorganic chemistry is titanium methoxide with the empirical formula Ti(OCH 3) 4, which is tetrameric in solid state and has the molecular formula Ti 4 (OCH 3 ...

    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. Quadruple bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadruple_bond

    An example of a ditungsten compound with a quadruple bond is ditungsten tetra(hpp). Quadruple bonds between atoms of main-group elements are unknown. For the diatomic carbon (C 2 ) molecule as an example, molecular orbital theory shows that there are two sets of paired electrons in the sigma system (one bonding, one antibonding), and two sets ...

  6. Carbon tetrachloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_tetrachloride

    Carbon tetrachloride, also known by many other names (such as carbon tet for short and tetrachloromethane, also recognised by the IUPAC), is a chemical compound with the chemical formula CCl 4.

  7. Tetraoxygen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetraoxygen

    Tetraoxygen was first predicted in 1924 by Gilbert N. Lewis, who proposed it as an explanation for the failure of liquid oxygen to obey Curie's law. [1] Though not entirely inaccurate, computer simulations indicate that although there are no stable O 4 molecules in liquid oxygen, O 2 molecules do tend to associate in pairs with antiparallel spins, forming transient O 4 units. [2]

  8. Tetrachloroethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrachloroethylene

    Tetrachloroethylene, also known as perchloroethylene [a] or under the systematic name tetrachloroethene, and abbreviations such as perc (or PERC), and PCE, is a chlorocarbon with the formula Cl 2 C=CCl 2.

  9. 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.
