quark Kobayashi-Maskawa Matrix represents properties held by these; Murray Glen-Man names them
Boron It forms compounds with hydrogen that are given prefixes like nido- and arachno-.
Surface tension The difference in pressure across the interface of two static fluids is twice this quantity times the mean curvature according to LaPlace's law.
Hall-heroult bath proceeds bayer process
yeast first organism to have its genome sequenced
velocity force times this is power
HCl functions as a proton donor in elimination reactions which form alkenes
elimination reaction a type of organic reaction in which two substituents are removed from a molecule in either a one or two-step mechanism. The one-step mechanism is known as the E2 reaction, and the two-step mechanism is known as the E1 reaction.
nondisjunction failure of the chromosomes to separate
appendix connects to cecum
salt bridges these allow the flow of electrons between two containers of different chemicals. Name these connections between the half-cells in a galvanic cell.

Born hayber cycle Finds lattice energy
Reynolds number a dimensionless number that gives a measure of the ratio of inertial forces () to viscous forces (μ / L) and, consequently, it quantifies the relative importance of these two types of forces for given flow conditions.
Laminar flow Even flow, viscosity is dominant low Reynolds number
Turbulent flow choppy flow with irregularities;high inertial forces and high Reynolds number
Calcium
fermentation Pasteur defines it as respiration without air
fungi The only type of these organisms that have flagella are the chytrids.
linear velocity proportional to wavenumber. Planck's constant divided by this quantity equals a particle's de Broglie wavelength. The square of this quantity divided by twice an object's mass equals kinetic energy. a change in this quantity is called an impulse.
hydrolic devices devices work because a change in this quantity in one part of an incompressible fluid is transmitted to all parts of that fluid, allowing the amplification of work
urine the surface tension of it is measured in the Hay test
van der walls force they include one type that results from the interaction of temporary dipoles, London dispersion forces. For 10 points, name these weak attractive forces between gas molecules, named for a Dutch scientist.
gauss This man developed the ruler-and-straightedge construction of a seventeen-sided polygon.
vapor pressure It equals atmospheric pressure at the boiling point
vapor pressure The pressure exerted by the gas in equilibrium (the substance stops changing phases in a closed container) with a solid or liquid in a closed container at a given temperature is called the
work at constant pressure this quantity equals "pressure times change in volume." The first law of thermodynamics sets change in internal energy equal to "heat added plus [this quantity]."

charge A magnetic kind of this would be generated by magnetic monopoles
kuiper belt name this ring of small bodies from around thirty to fifty-five AUs from the sun
parthenogenesis a type of asexual reproduction in which the offspring develops from unfertilized eggs. It is particularly common amongst arthropods and rotifers, can also be found in some species of fish, amphibians, birds, and reptiles, but not in mammals.
flame test name this test for detecting metals, in which strontium solutions turn red and sodium solutions turn yellow when subjected to the namesake source of heat.
bases The super types of these substances include sodium amide and n-butyllithium hard ones end in -ide
auxin name this first plant hormone to be discovered, which promotes coleoptile expansion and fruit growth.
