atomic transition
  گذرش ِ اتمی   
gozareš-e atomi

Fr.: transition atomique   

A change in the → energy level or → state of an → atom in which a → quantum of energy is either gained or lost. See also → forbidden transition; → permitted transition; → semiforbidden transition.

atomic; → transition.

atomic volume
  گنج ِ اتمی   
gonj-e atomi

Fr.: volume atomique   

The volume one → mole of a → chemical element occupies at room temperature. Atomic volume is typically given in cubic centimeters per mole (cc/mol). In other words, atomic volume is the ratio of → atomic mass to the → density of an element.

atomic; → volume. .

atomic volume curve
  خم ِ گنج ِ اتمی   
xam-e gonj-e atomi

Fr.: courbe du volume atomique   

A graph displaying → atomic volumes of → chemical elements against their → atomic masses, first plotted by Lother Meyer (1830-1895). The elements with similar properties occupy the same positions on the graph. In the original curve, Lothar Meyer plotted atomic volumes against → atomic weights. → Alkali metals such as Na, K, Rb, and Cs occupy the top position on the graph. Elements like Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, and Ba occupy the positions on the ascending part of the graph. → Inert gases, except He, occupy the positions on the descending part of the graph. → Halogen elements like F, Cl, and Br also occupy the descending part of the graph.

Fr.: poids atomique   

relative atomic mass.

atomic; → weight.

atomic wff
   wff اتمی   
wff atomi

Fr.: FBF atomique   

i) If t1, t2, ..., tn are terms and P is a → predicate of arity n, then P(t1, t2, ..., tn) is an atomic wff.
ii) If t1 and t2 are terms, then (t1 = t2) is an atomic wff.

atomic; → wff.
