Examples of a Pure Substance in Our Daily Life
A pure substance is one which is made up of a same type of molecule.And in real life we come across very few examples of pure substances. A substance can be said to be pure if it has a homogeneous appearance and an uniform color throughout its matter. These materials are very hard to find […]
Read MoreAtomic structure | Models and Experiments in Detail
At the initial point of the 19th century, a British chemist John Dalton proposed the atomic theory. This could successfully explain the law of conservation of mass and constant proportion. However since he considered atoms to be indivisible, his theories couldn’t be used to explain many chemical phenomena. By the end of the 19th and […]

Read MoreVelocity and Acceleration |Formula,Units and Graph derivation
Velocity is a rate of change in displacement with respect to time. As displacement is a vector quantity having both magnitude and direction, velocity is also a vector quantity. Acceleration is a rate of change in velocity with respect to time. An object undergoes acceleration whenever an object’s speed increases or decreases (usually referred to […]

The kidney is the primary organ of excretion found in the upper chordates. It is an abdominal organ, situated just anterior to the posterior abdominal wall. Being two in number, they are located one on each side of the vertebral column. It is a retroperitoneal organ, i.e., it has no peritoneal covering, peritoneum gets reflected […]
Read More5 Types of Bonds in Chemistry with Diagrams
There are different chemical species, like atoms, ions, and molecules. A chemical bond is a lasting attraction between two chemical species. Depending on the specific type of bond and the nature of the particular species, the bond may be strong or weak. Chemical species usually bond to fill their electron orbitals and shells, due to […]
