  2. Square antiprismatic molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_antiprismatic...

    Examples. XeF 2− 8; IF − 8; ReF − 8; Square prismatic geometry and cubic geometry. Square prismatic geometry (D 4h) is much less common compared to the square antiprism. An example of a molecular species with square prismatic geometry (a slightly flattened cube) is octafluoroprotactinate(V), [PaF 8] 3–, as found in its sodium salt, Na 3 ...

  3. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Prentice's rule, named so after the optician Charles F. Prentice, is a formula used to determine the amount of induced prism in a lens: = where: P is the amount of prism correction (in prism dioptres) c is decentration (the distance between the pupil centre and the lens's optical centre, in millimetres)

  4. Fine structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fine_structure

    Relativistic corrections (Dirac) to the energy levels of a hydrogen atom from Bohr's model. The fine structure correction predicts that the Lyman-alpha line (emitted in a transition from n = 2 to n = 1) must split into a doublet. The total effect can also be obtained by using the Dirac equation. In this case, the electron is treated as non ...

  5. Square antiprism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_antiprism

    Square antiprism. In geometry, the square antiprism is the second in an infinite family of antiprisms formed by an even-numbered sequence of triangle sides closed by two polygon caps. It is also known as an anticube. [1] If all its faces are regular, it is a semiregular polyhedron or uniform polyhedron .

  6. Bohr–Sommerfeld model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr–Sommerfeld_model

    The Bohr–Sommerfeld model (also known as the Sommerfeld model or Bohr–Sommerfeld theory) was an extension of the Bohr model to allow elliptical orbits of electrons around an atomic nucleus. Bohr–Sommerfeld theory is named after Danish physicist Niels Bohr and German physicist Arnold Sommerfeld. Sommerfeld argued that if electronic orbits ...

  7. VSEPR theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VSEPR_theory

    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 ...

  8. BET theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BET_theory

    The resulting BET equation is θ = c p ( 1 − p / p o ) ( p o + p ( c − 1 ) ) {\displaystyle \theta ={\frac {cp}{(1-p/p_{o}){\bigl (}p_{o}+p(c-1){\bigr )}}}} where c is referred to as the BET C-constant, p o {\displaystyle p_{o}} is the vapor pressure of the adsorptive bulk liquid phase which would be at the temperature of the adsorbate and ...

    Multiplying the second equation by i and combining it with the first equation yields the (complex) equation − ℏ 2 2 m ∇ 2 χ + ( u ~ 1 − E ) χ + i ℏ 2 2 m [ 2 τ 12 ∇ + ∇ τ 12 ] χ + i ( u 1 − u 2 ) ψ 2 = 0. {\displaystyle -{\frac {\hbar ^{2}}{2m}} abla ^{2}\chi +({\tilde {u}}_{1}-E)\chi +i{\frac {\hbar ^{2}}{2m}}[2\mathbf ...

  10. Octahedral molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octahedral_molecular_geometry

    In chemistry, octahedral molecular geometry, also called square bipyramidal, [1] describes the shape of compounds with six atoms or groups of atoms or ligands symmetrically arranged around a central atom, defining the vertices of an octahedron. The octahedron has eight faces, hence the prefix octa. The octahedron is one of the Platonic solids ...

  11. Møller–Plesset perturbation theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Møller–Plesset...

    The solution of the zeroth-order MP equation is the sum of orbital energies. The zeroth plus first-order correction yields the Hartree–Fock energy. As with the original formulation, the first non-vanishing perturbation correction beyond the Hartree–Fock treatment is the second-order energy.
