Hydrofluoric acid, HF(aq), cannot be stored in glass bottles because compounds called silicates in the glass are attacked by the HF(aq).

Ornithophily or bird pollination is the pollination of flowering plants by birds. This sometimes (but not always) coevolutionary association is derived from insect pollination (entomophily) and is particularly well developed in some parts of the world, especially in the tropics, Southern Africa, and on some island chains

Molarity (M) is the concentration of a solution expressed as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution
Normality is a measure of concentration equal to the gram equivalent weight per liter of solution. Gram equivalent weight is the measure of the reactive capacity of a molecule.
Solubility is a chemical property referring to the ability for a given substance, the solute, to dissolve in a solvent.

A dioptre (uk), or diopter (us), is a unit of measurement of the optical power of a lens or curved mirror, which is equal to the reciprocal of the focal length measured in metres (that is, 1/metres). It is thus a unit of reciprocal length.

Systemic arterial blood pressure usually is measured using an instrument called a sphygmomanometer. This device consists of an inflatable rubber cuff connected by tubing to a compressible bulb and a glass tube containing a column of mercury.

Penicillin is a secondary metabolite of certain species of Penicillium and is produced when growth of the fungus is inhibited by stress. It is not produced during active growth.

Sir William Ramsay and M. W. Travers discovered this element in 1898. The element’s name came from the Greek word xenos, which means ‘stranger’. Xenon belongs to the group of the noble gases.

Carbon dioxide. A lighted wooden splint goes out in a test tube of carbon dioxide but this happens with other gases, too. It is better to bubble the test gas through limewater – calcium hydroxide solution. Carbon dioxide turns limewater cloudy white.

The six noble gases that occur naturally are helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), and the radioactive radon (Rn). Oganesson (Og) is variously predicted to be a noble gas as well or to break the trend due to relativistic effects; its chemistry has not yet been investigated.
