A Lewis base is often a Brønsted–Lowry base as it can donate a pair of electrons to H+; the proton is a Lewis acid as it can accept a pair of electrons. The conjugate base of a Brønsted–Lowry acid is also a Lewis base as loss of H+ from the acid leaves those electrons which were used for the A—H bond as a lone pair on ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_acids_and_bases |
The notation Γ ⊢ ϕ {\displaystyle \Gamma \vdash \phi } means that there is a deduction that ends with ϕ {\displaystyle \phi } using as axioms only logical axioms and elements of Γ {\displaystyle \Gamma } . Thus, informally, Γ ⊢ ϕ {\displaystyle \Gamma \vdash \phi } means that ϕ {\displaystyle \phi } is provable assumin... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert-style_system |
In the 1980s, GM concerns included an increase in the number of orphan wells and the "protection of useable groundwater. "In 2014, new regulation directed industry to "locate and test" any abandoned wells that were close to houses, airports, businesses, etc. that may pose a risk due to gas leakage. The resulting 33-pag... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orphan_wells_in_Alberta,_Canada |
The genetics of the several Yellowface mutations and their relation to the Blue mutation are not yet fully and definitively understood.Much confusion and misunderstanding have arisen because the popular names given to these mutations are misleading. These mutations do not generate a yellow face, as the names might sugg... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellowface_I_budgerigar_mutation |

They are found in subtropical and temperate oceanic waters globally.The genus contains bioluminescent species. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neon_flying_squid |
One special case of a projective hyperplane is the infinite or ideal hyperplane, which is defined with the set of all points at infinity. In projective space, a hyperplane does not divide the space into two parts; rather, it takes two hyperplanes to separate points and divide up the space. The reason for this is that t... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affine_hyperplane |
For queer employees, there is an undeniable "pink ceiling"; not a single Fortune 1000 CEO is openly gay, and it is documented that being gay negatively impacts an employee's opportunity for promotion – 28 percent of gay employees remain closeted "because they feel it may be an obstacle to career advancement or developm... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Workplace_inequality |

In the case of prescribed displacement, the strain energy can be expressed in terms of the specified displacement and the crack surface Ω ( q , s ) {\displaystyle \Omega (q,s)} , and the change in this strain energy is only affected by the change in fracture surface area: δ Ω = ( ∂ Ω / ∂ s ) δ s {\displaystyle \delta \... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_energy_release_rate |
When the second generation of mobile telecoms (so-called 2G) was introduced in Finland by Radiolinja (now Elisa) on the GSM standard (now the world's most common mobile technology with over 2 billion users) in 1991, the digital technology introduced data services. SMS text messaging was the first such service. The firs... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_advertising |
