Energy equivalent of the mass deficiency, energy released in the formation of an atom from the subatomic particles.
Handmade crystal glass as a work of art
In order for the colored crystal to open in all its beauty and sparkle with every face natural light is required. Handmade crystal glass has specific tactile and aesthetic properties - it is pleasant to touch, it seems to radiate heat. To appreciate the quality and beauty of such things, of course, it is not enough to look at the picture.
Optical Isomers
Stereoisomers that differ only by being nonsuperimposable mirror images of each other, like right and left hands, also called enantiomers.
Hydrocarbons
Compounds that contain only carbon and hydrogen.
Differential Thermometer
A thermometer used for accurate measurement of very small changes in temperature.
