  2. Metallic mean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metallic_mean

    The term "bronze ratio" (=) (Cf. Golden Age and Olympic Medals) and even metals such as copper (=) and nickel (=) are occasionally found in the literature. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] In terms of algebraic number theory , the metallic means are exactly the real quadratic integers that are greater than 1 {\displaystyle 1} and have − 1 {\displaystyle -1} as ...

    The program was renamed to National Talent Search Scheme with the NTSE examination now being conducted for classes X, XI, and XII. Currently, the NTSE exam is conducted only for 10th class students in India in two phases with subjects relating to Mental Ability Test and Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) for 100 marks each. [6] [7]

  4. Metal ions in aqueous solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_ions_in_aqueous_solution

    A metal ion in aqueous solution or aqua ion is a cation, dissolved in water, of chemical formula [M(H 2 O) n] z+.The solvation number, n, determined by a variety of experimental methods is 4 for Li + and Be 2+ and 6 for most elements in periods 3 and 4 of the periodic table.

  5. Coordination geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordination_geometry

    The coordination geometry depends on the number, not the type, of ligands bonded to the metal centre as well as their locations. The number of atoms bonded is the coordination number. The geometrical pattern can be described as a polyhedron where the vertices of the polyhedron are the centres of the coordinating atoms in the ligands. [1]

  6. Chemical kinetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_kinetics

    The 'rule of thumb' that the rate of chemical reactions doubles for every 10 °C temperature rise is a common misconception. This may have been generalized from the special case of biological systems, where the α (temperature coefficient) is often between 1.5 and 2.5. The kinetics of rapid reactions can be studied with the temperature jump method.

  7. Determinant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Determinant

    In mathematics, the determinant is a scalar-valued function of the entries of a square matrix.The determinant of a matrix A is commonly denoted det(A), det A, or | A |.Its value characterizes some properties of the matrix and the linear map represented, on a given basis, by the matrix.

  8. Environmental chemistry - Wikipedia

    More sophisticated approaches are used in the determination of trace metals and organic compounds. Metals are commonly measured by atomic spectroscopy and mass spectrometry : Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) and Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission (ICP-AES) or Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometric (ICP-MS) techniques.

  9. Wien's displacement law - Wikipedia

    Blacksmiths work iron when it is hot enough to emit plainly visible thermal radiation. The color of a star is determined by its temperature, according to Wien's law. In the constellation of Orion, one can compare Betelgeuse (T ≈ 3800 K, upper left), Rigel (T = 12100 K, bottom right), Bellatrix (T = 22000 K, upper right), and Mintaka (T = 31800 K, rightmost of the 3 "belt stars" in the middle).
