Abstract
This paper reviews the problems associated with marijuana abuse
and marijuana dependency among college students (Ratini, 2014). It also
explores their progressive use of marijuana, ca...

Ammonium hydroxide (NH 4+...OH -) can be characterised quantum mechanically when stabilised by water bridges connecting the ion-pairs. It is a small step from there to hydronium hydroxide, or H 3O+...

Earlier, I constructed a possible model of hydronium hydroxide, or H 3O+.OH - One way of assessing the quality of the model is to calculate the free energy difference between it and two normal wat...

Here is another exploration of simple chemical concepts using crystal structures. Consider a simple diene: how does the central C-C bond length respond to the torsion angle between the two C=C bond...

Previously, I explored deviation from ideal tetrahedral arrangements of four carbon ligands around a central (sp 3) carbon using crystal structures. Now it is the turn of digonal (sp 1) and trigona...

The phenomenon of bond stretch isomerism, two isomers of a compound differing predominantly in just one bond length, is one of those chemical concepts that wax and occasionally wane. Here I explore...

This question was posted on the CCL (computational chemistry list) by John McKelvey. Here, I give an answer in the form of a search of the CSD (crystal structure database).
I was not sure if the qu...
