    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_formula

    A chemical formula is a way of presenting information about the chemical proportions of atoms that constitute a particular chemical compound or molecule, using chemical element symbols, numbers, and sometimes also other symbols, such as parentheses, dashes, brackets, commas and plus (+) and minus (−) signs.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts-per_notation

    In fractions like "2 nanometers per meter" (2 n m / m = 2 nano = 2×10 −9 = 2 ppb = 2 × 0.000 000 001), so the quotients are pure-number coefficients with positive values less than or equal to 1. When parts-per notations, including the percent symbol (%), are used in regular prose (as opposed to mathematical expressions), they are still pure ...

    A non-SI, metric unit of length equal to 1010 metre, i.e. 1 ⁄ 10000000000 of a metre or 0.1 nanometre. The angstrom is commonly used in the natural sciences to express microscopic or atomic-scale distances, including the sizes of atomic nuclei, wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation, and lengths of chemical bonds (e.g. the covalent ...

    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.

    Oxygen (1s 2 2s 2 2p 4), fluorine (1s 2 2s 2 2p 5), and neon (1s 2 2s 2 2p 6) then complete the already singly filled 2p orbitals; the last of these fills the second shell completely. [ 39 ] [ 58 ] Starting from element 11, sodium , the second shell is full, making the second shell a core shell for this and all heavier elements.

  8. Potassium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium

    Four oxides of potassium are well studied: potassium oxide (K 2 O), potassium peroxide (K 2 O 2), potassium superoxide (KO 2) [25] and potassium ozonide (KO 3). The binary potassium-oxygen compounds react with water forming KOH. KOH is a strong base. Illustrating its hydrophilic character, as much as 1.21 kg of KOH can dissolve in a single ...

    Planar conformation found in potassium oxalate K 2 C 2 O 4 [8] [10] The barrier to rotation about this bond is calculated to be roughly 2–6 kcal/mol for the free dianion, C 2 O 2− 4 . [ 11 ] [ 12 ] [ 13 ] Such results are consistent with the interpretation that the central C−C bond is regarded as a single bond with minimal π interactions ...
