  2. Synthetic element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_element

    The synthetic elements are those with atomic numbers 95–118, as shown in purple on the accompanying periodic table: [1] these 24 elements were first created between 1944 and 2010. The mechanism for the creation of a synthetic element is to force additional protons into the nucleus of an element with an atomic number lower than 95.

  3. Potassium hydroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_hydroxide

    In chemical synthesis, the choice between the use of KOH and the use of NaOH is guided by the solubility or keeping quality of the resulting salt. The corrosive properties of potassium hydroxide make it a useful ingredient in agents and preparations that clean and disinfect surfaces and materials that can themselves resist corrosion by KOH.

    This is a list of radioactive nuclides (sometimes also called isotopes), ordered by half-life from shortest to longest, in seconds, minutes, hours, days and years. Current methods include jumping up and down make it difficult to measure half-lives between approximately 10 −19 and 10 −10 seconds.

  6. Sandwich compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandwich_compound

    Half sandwich complexes have only one facially-bound planar organic ligand instead of two gives rise to a still larger family of half-sandwich compounds. One well studied example is probably methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl. Such species are occasionally referred to as piano-stool compounds, at least when there are three diatomic ...

  7. List of semiconductor materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../List_of_semiconductor_materials

    A compound semiconductor is a semiconductor compound composed of chemical elements of at least two different species. These semiconductors form for example in periodic table groups 13–15 (old groups III–V), for example of elements from the Boron group (old group III, boron, aluminium, gallium, indium) and from group 15 (old group V, nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, bismuth).

  8. Potassium permanganate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_permanganate

    2 KMnO 4 + 16 HCl → 2 MnCl 2 + 5 Cl 2 + 2 KCl + 8 H 2 O. In neutral solution, permanganate slowly reduces to manganese dioxide (MnO 2). This is the material that stains one's skin when handling KMnO 4. KMnO 4 reduces in alkaline solution to give green K 2 MnO 4: [75] 4 KMnO 4 + 4 KOH → 4 K 2 MnO 4 + O 2 + 2 H 2 O
