    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_nomenclature

    Chemical nomenclature. Chemical nomenclature is a set of rules to generate systematic names for chemical compounds. The nomenclature used most frequently worldwide is the one created and developed by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). IUPAC Nomenclature ensures that each compound (and its various isomers) have only ...

    Chemical symbol. The periodic table, elements being denoted by their symbols. Chemical symbols are the abbreviations used in chemistry, mainly for chemical elements; but also for functional groups, chemical compounds, and other entities. Element symbols for chemical elements normally consist of one or two letters from the Latin alphabet and are ...

  6. E–Z notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E–Z_notation

    E–Z configuration, or the E–Z convention, is the IUPAC preferred method of describing the absolute stereochemistry of double bonds in organic chemistry. It is an extension of cis–trans isomer notation (which only describes relative stereochemistry) that can be used to describe double bonds having two, three or four substituents. E and Z ...

    The bond angle for water is 104.5°. Valence shell electron pair repulsion ( VSEPR) theory ( / ˈvɛspər, vəˈsɛpər / VESP-ər, [1] : 410 və-SEP-ər [2]) is a model used in chemistry to predict the geometry of individual molecules from the number of electron pairs surrounding their central atoms. [3] It is also named the Gillespie-Nyholm ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphitic_carbon_nitride

    Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4) is a family of carbon nitride compounds with a general formula near to C 3 N 4 (albeit typically with non-zero amounts of hydrogen) and two major substructures based on heptazine and poly (triazine imide) units which, depending on reaction conditions, exhibit different degrees of condensation, properties and ...

  9. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylenediaminetetraacetic...

    In coordination chemistry, EDTA 4− is a member of the aminopolycarboxylic acid family of ligands. EDTA 4− usually binds to a metal cation through its two amines and four carboxylates, i.e., it is a hexadentate ("six-toothed") chelating agent. Many of the resulting coordination compounds adopt octahedral geometry.
