Unpaired in a sentence

This isotope has one unpaired proton and one unpaired neutron, so either the proton or the neutron can decay.

Now that your watch is unpaired, you'll need to connect it to its charging cable with power connected.

The like spin of unpaired atomic electrons form an orbital magnetic moment.

About 15 percent of the world's languages, however, have unpaired voiced fricatives, i.e. a voiced fricative without a voiceless counterpart.

All of these structures are paramagnetic (have unpaired electrons), not diamagnetic.

Although the electronic configuration of the individual atoms (and ions) of most elements contain unpaired spins, they are not necessarily paramagnetic, because at ambient temperature quenching is very much the rule rather than the exception.

Although there are usually energetic reasons why a molecular structure results such that it does not exhibit partly filled orbitals (i.e. unpaired spins), some non-closed shell moieties do occur in nature.

An electron configuration with two unpaired electrons, as is found in dioxygen (see the filled * orbitals in the diagram) orbitals that are of equal energy—i.

As there are seven 4f orbitals, the number of unpaired electrons can be as high as 7, which gives rise to the large magnetic moments observed for lanthanide compounds.

Complexes with zero to two unpaired electrons are considered low-spin and those with four or five are considered high-spin.

Considering only monometallic complexes, unpaired electrons arise because the complex has an odd number of electrons or because electron pairing is destabilized.

During the breeding season, unpaired male aardwolves will search their own territory, as well as others, for a female to mate with.

Ferromagnetism Tip of permanent magnet with coins demonstrating ferromagnetism main A ferromagnet, like a paramagnetic substance, has unpaired electrons.

For example, Cu II 2 (OAc) 4 (H 2 O) 2 is almost diamagnetic below room temperature whereas Crystal Field Theory predicts that the molecule would have two unpaired electrons.

Free radicals are very reactive atoms or molecules that have unpaired electrons.

In a diamagnetic material, there are no unpaired electrons, so the intrinsic electron magnetic moments cannot produce any bulk effect.

In contemporary usage, the term radical refers to free radicals that are (not necessarily charged) species with an unpaired electron.

In ferromagnetic elements such as iron, cobalt and nickel, an odd number of electrons leads to an unpaired electron and a net overall magnetic moment.

In principle any system that contains atoms, ions, or molecules with unpaired spins can be called a paramagnet, but the interactions between them need to be carefully considered.

Moreover, the size of the magnetic moment on a lanthanide atom can be quite large as it can carry up to 7 unpaired electrons in the case of gadolinium (III) (hence its use in MRI ).
