  2. Iodide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodide

    An iodide ion is I −. [2] Compounds with iodine in formal oxidation state −1 are called iodides. In everyday life, iodide is most commonly encountered as a component of iodized salt, which many governments mandate. Worldwide, iodine deficiency affects two billion people and is the leading preventable cause of intellectual disability. [3]

  3. Iodine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodine

    Commercially, it is usually made by reacting iodine with hydrogen sulfide or hydrazine: [47] 2 I 2 + N 2 H 4 4 HI + N 2. At room temperature, it is a colourless gas, like all of the hydrogen halides except hydrogen fluoride, since hydrogen cannot form strong hydrogen bonds to the large and only mildly electronegative iodine atom. It melts at ...

  4. Hydrogen iodide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_iodide

    Hydrogen iodide (HI) is a diatomic molecule and hydrogen halide. Aqueous solutions of HI are known as hydroiodic acid or hydriodic acid, a strong acid.Hydrogen iodide and hydroiodic acid are, however, different in that the former is a gas under standard conditions, whereas the other is an aqueous solution of the gas.

  5. Hydrogen ion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_ion

    The concentration of hydrogen ions and pH are inversely proportional; in an aqueous solution, an increased concentration of hydrogen ions yields a low pH, and subsequently, an acidic product. By definition, an acid is an ion or molecule that can donate a proton, and when introduced to a solution it will react with water molecules (H 2 O) to ...

  6. Molar mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_mass

    The molar mass of atoms of an element is given by the relative atomic mass of the element multiplied by the molar mass constant, M u ≈ 1.000 000 × 10 −3 kg/mol ≈ 1 g/mol. For normal samples from Earth with typical isotope composition, the atomic weight can be approximated by the standard atomic weight [ 2 ] or the conventional atomic weight.

  7. Reduced mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduced_mass

    For typical applications in nuclear physics, where one particle's mass is much larger than the other the reduced mass can be approximated as the smaller mass of the system. The limit of the reduced mass formula as one mass goes to infinity is the smaller mass, thus this approximation is used to ease calculations, especially when the larger ...

  8. Dihydrogen cation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihydrogen_cation

    The dihydrogen cation or hydrogen molecular ion is a cation (positive ion) with formula +. It consists of two hydrogen nuclei , each sharing a single electron. It is the simplest molecular ion. The ion can be formed from the ionization of a neutral hydrogen molecule by

  9. Abundance of the chemical elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abundance_of_the_chemical...

    Parts-per-million cube of relative abundance by mass of elements in an average adult human down to 1 ppm. By mass, human cells consist of 65–90% water (H 2 O), and a significant portion of the remainder is composed of carbon-containing organic molecules. Oxygen therefore contributes a majority of a human body's mass, followed by carbon.
