Results 151–160 of 273 for valentni elektron

meson → mezon

Meson is a positively or negatively charged subatomic particle of very short life age with a mass about 200 times greater than the one of electron. It is produced artificially in particle accelerators.

metalloid → polumetal

Metalloid (semimetal) is any of a class of chemical elements intermediate in properties between metals and nonmetals. The classification is not clear cut, but typical metalloids are boron (B), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), arsenic (As), and tellurium (Te). They are electrical semiconductors and their oxides are amphoteric.

electrogravimetry → electrogravimetrija

Electrogravimetry is an electroanalytical technique in which the substance to be determined (usually a metal) is deposited out on an electrode which is weighed before and after the experiment. The potential of the electrode must be carefully chosen to ensure that only the metal do be determined will deposit.

microwave radiation → mikrovalna radijacija

Microwave radiation is a electromagnetic radiation with wavelength between 3 mm and 30 cm.

MOSFET → MOSFET

MOSFET (metal oxide field effect transistor) is a semiconductor device which can be used as an ion selective electrode.

negative pole → negativan pol

Negative pole is that half-cell in electrochemical cell that has the most negative electrode potential.

nucleophile → nukleofil

Nucleophiles are negatively charged or bear a partial negative charge. Examples are lone pairs or a hydroxide ion.

octet → oktet

Octet is scientific law stating that all atoms, except those of hydrogen and helium, require eight electrons in the outermost energy level to maintain chemical stability.

ohm → om

Ohm (Ω) is the SI derived unit of electric resistance. The ohm is the electric resistance between two points of a conductor when a constant difference of potential of one volt, applied between these two points, produces in this conductor a current of one ampere, this conductor not being the source of electromotive force (Ω = V/A). The unit was named after the German physicist Georg Simon Ohm (1789-1854).

overpotential → prenapon

Overpotential (η) is a potential that must be applied in an electrolytic cell in addition to the theoretical potential required to liberate a given substance at an electrode. The value depends on the electrode material and on the current density.
