Chemistry is the science of study of matter in finest sense, its interactions and existence.
Functional groups are an atom or a group of atoms bonded together in a unique manner attached to the alkyl chain or ring or any other organic molecule. They confer …
Hydrochloric acid is also called muriatic acid and is chemically represented as HCl. It is a monobasic acid and hence, it releases only one hydrogen atom when dissolved in water. …
Hydrobromic acid is a diatomic molecule which exists as a colorless gas at room temperature. Its molecular formula is “HF” and so is also called as hydrogen bromide. It has …
The difference between ion and atom are given in the table below. But before that one needs to be clear of what is an atom and ion. Atom is the …
Sodium hydroxide is a white, odorless and crystalline solid substance available as circular pellets in the chemical laboratory. One should be careful while handling it due to its caustic and …
Mass spectrometry is used to determine the mass and molecular structure of a compound. Unlike other spectroscopy techniques, here the electromagnetic radiation is not used for the excitation of electrons. …
Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is one that studies the spin changes at the nuclear level. This spin change occurs when a radio frequency energy is absorbed by the nucleus in …
Limit test for iron is a semi-quantitative test used to check the iron impurities in an official sample. Principle: This test is based on the reaction of thioglycolic acid with …
The glass is one of the early discoveries of man. It was made out of molten sand. The uses of glass are indispensable, i.e., there will be no alternatives to …
Gas chromatography is one of the widely used analytical tools. The applications of gas chromatography include Qualitative analysis Testing the purity of compounds To trace impurities Quantitative analysis Determination of …
