Stereo-chemistry :: Stereo-chemical (a.) Pertaining to, or illustrating, the hypothetical space relations of atoms in the molecule; as, a stereo-chemic formula..

Substitute :: Substituent (n.) Any atom, group, or radical substituted for another, or entering a molecule in place of some other part which is removed..

Ternary :: Ternary (a.) Containing, or consisting of, three different parts, as elements, atoms, groups, or radicals, which are regarded as having different functions or relations in the molecule; thus, sodic hydroxide, NaOH, is a ternary compound..

Monatomic :: Monatomic (adv.) Consisting of, or containing, one atom; as, the molecule of mercury is monatomic..

Hexeikosane :: Hexeikosane (n.) A hydrocarbon, C26H54, resembling paraffine; -- so called because each molecule has twenty-six atoms of carbon..

Wave :: Wave (v. i.) A vibration propagated from particle to particle through a body or elastic medium, as in the transmission of sound; an assemblage of vibrating molecules in all phases of a vibration, with no phase repeated; a wave of vibration; an undulation. See Undulation..

Disgregation :: Disgregation (n.) The process of separation, or the condition of being separate, as of the molecules of a body..

Nonane :: Nonane (n.) One of a group of metameric hydrocarbons C9H20 of the paraffin series; -- so called because of the nine carbon atoms in the molecule. Normal nonane is a colorless volatile liquid, an ingredient of ordinary kerosene..

Trikosane :: Trikosane (n.) A hydrocarbon, C23H48, of the methane series, resembling paraffin; -- so called because it has twenty-three atoms of carbon in the molecule..

Atomicity :: Atomicity (n.) Degree of atomic attraction; equivalence; valence; also (a later use) the number of atoms in an elementary molecule. See Valence.

Pentane :: Pentane (n.) Any one of the three metameric hydrocarbons, C5H12, of the methane or paraffin series. They are colorless, volatile liquids, two of which occur in petroleum. So called because of the five carbon atoms in the molecule..

Self-repelling :: Self-repelling (a.) Made up of parts, as molecules or atoms, which mutually repel each other; as, gases are self-repelling..

Tetradecane :: Tetradecane (n.) A light oily hydrocarbon, C14H30, of the marsh-gas series; -- so called from the fourteen carbon atoms in the molecule..

Corpuscle :: Corpuscle (n.) A minute particle; an atom; a molecule.

Tetratomic :: Tetratomic (a.) Consisting of four atoms; having four atoms in the molecule, as phosphorus and arsenic..

#NAME? :: -retted (a.) Containing two atoms or equivalents of carbon in the molecule.

Tetrabasic :: Tetrabasic (a.) Capable of neutralizing four molecules of a monacid base; having four hydrogen atoms capable of replacement by bases; quadribasic; -- said of certain acids; thus, normal silicic acid, Si(OH)4, is a tetrabasic acid..

Tetrol :: Tetrol (n.) A hypothetical hydrocarbon, C4H4, analogous to benzene; -- so called from the four carbon atoms in the molecule..

Invertin :: Invertin (n.) An unorganized ferment which causes cane sugar to take up a molecule of water and be converted into invert sugar.
