Thanks for using this online dictionary, we have been helping millions of people improve their use of the english language with its free online services. English definition of molecule is as below...

Monoxide :: Monoxide (n.) An oxide containing one atom of oxygen in each molecule; as, barium monoxide..

Tetracid :: Tetracid (a.) Capable of neutralizing four molecules of a monobasic acid; having four hydrogen atoms capable of replacement ba acids or acid atoms; -- said of certain bases; thus, erythrine, C4H6(OH)4, is a tetracid alcohol..

Deutohydroguret :: Deutohydroguret (n.) A compound containing in the molecule two atoms of hydrogen united with some other element or radical.

Tetryl :: Tetryl (n.) Butyl; -- so called from the four carbon atoms in the molecule.

Pentachloride :: Pentachloride (n.) A chloride having five atoms of chlorine in each molecule.

Polyiodide :: Polyiodide (n.) A iodide having more than one atom of iodine in the molecule.

Palmitin :: Palmitin (n.) A solid crystallizable fat, found abundantly in animals and in vegetables. It occurs mixed with stearin and olein in the fat of animal tissues, with olein and butyrin in butter, with olein in olive oil, etc. Chemically, it is a glyceride of palmitic acid, three molecules of palmitic acid being united to one molecule of glyceryl, and hence it is technically called tripalmitin, or glyceryl tripalmitate..

Triacid :: Triacid (a.) Capable of neutralizing three molecules of a monobasic acid or the equivalent; having three hydrogen atoms which may be acid radicals; -- said of certain bases; thus, glycerin is a triacid base..

Equivalent :: Equivalent (n.) A combining unit, whether an atom, a radical, or a molecule; as, in acid salt two or more equivalents of acid unite with one or more equivalents of base..

Intramolecular :: Intramolecular (a.) Between molecules; situated, or acting, between the molecules of bodies..

Plastidule :: Plastidule (n.) One of the small particles or organic molecules of protoplasm.

Pore :: Pore (v.) A minute opening or passageway; an interstice between the constituent particles or molecules of a body; as, the pores of stones..

Dioxide :: Dioxide (n.) An oxide containing two atoms of oxygen in each molecule; binoxide.

Atom :: Atom (n.) An ultimate particle of matter not necessarily indivisible; a molecule.

Pentadecane :: Pentadecane (n.) A hydrocarbon of the paraffin series, (C15H32) found in petroleum, tar oil, etc., and obtained as a colorless liquid; -- so called from the fifteen carbon atoms in the molecule..

Disulphide :: Disulphide (n.) A binary compound of sulphur containing two atoms of sulphur in each molecule; -- formerly called disulphuret. Cf. Bisulphide.

Olein :: Olein (n.) A fat, liquid at ordinary temperatures, but solidifying at temperatures below 0¡ C., found abundantly in both the animal and vegetable kingdoms (see Palmitin). It dissolves solid fats, especially at 30-40¡ C. Chemically, olein is a glyceride of oleic acid; and, as three molecules of the acid are united to one molecule of glyceryl to form the fat, it is technically known as triolein. It is also called elain..

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

Molecule :: Molecule (n.) The smallest part of any substance which possesses the characteristic properties and qualities of that substance, and which can exist alone in a free state..

Dissociation :: Dissociation (n.) The process by which a compound body breaks up into simpler constituents; -- said particularly of the action of heat on gaseous or volatile substances; as, the dissociation of the sulphur molecules; the dissociation of ammonium chloride into hydrochloric acid and ammonia..
