Checking against GA criteria

GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
The article is well enough written that I can follow it with my knowledge of Chemistry from an A-level over forty years ago.

It follows the Chemistry project guidelines and Manual of Style.
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
References appear to be RS and check out. I assume good faith for those which I cannot access. Citations follow Wikipedia:SCG
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
As far as I can determine, it is broad and focussed.
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
I note that it is suggested on the file pages that .png images should be rendered as vector graphics, but that is not a GA requirement.
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
I believe that this passes muster. I am happy to list it as a good article, congratulations! Jezhotwells (talk) 21:40, 1 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
