Why Atoms React and How?

The atom, which is the smallest particle known today, was discovered by John Dalton in 1804 to explain matter. According to Dalton, an atom is the tiniest particle of a detail. It was adopted as the unit of chemical atom reactions and could not be subdivided further. Amedeo Avogadro agreed with Dalton, but he wondered […]

Various Quantum Numbers (Principal, Angular Momentum, and Magnetic Quantum Numbers)

Introduction An atom is composed of a large number of orbitals that are identifiable from each other from their shape, size, and spatial perception.  Orbital parameters are applied to define an electron’s state properly and are expressed in terms of three numbers: principal quantum number, azimuthal quantum number, magnetic quantum number, and a spin quantum

Size of Nucleus

The smallest unit of matter is an atom, which has the properties of a chemical element and is the fundamental building block of chemistry. Atoms are the smallest units of all matter. An atom’s interior consists primarily of empty space, with its centre containing positively charged particles known as protons and neutral particles known as

Shapes of D Orbitals

In Quantum Mechanics and Chemistry, an orbital is a mathematical function that depicts the wave-like behaviour of an electron pair, electron, or nucleon. Orbitals can also be known as electron orbitals or atomic orbitals. Atomic orbitals are three-dimensional regions of space surrounding an atom’s nucleus. Atoms can form covalent bonds thanks to atomic orbitals. The

Elements: Classification of Elements

The periodic properties of atoms are related to the fact that the elements present in the periodic table are arranged in the sequence of growing and increasing atomic numbers. All the elements in the periodic table show different trends. Moreover, we can take the help of periodic law and table formation to predict their atomic,

Elements in the Human Body

The human body is a single structure which consists of billions of smaller structures. The smallest structure of the human body is referred to as a cell. An average adult has around 30-40 trillions of cells. These cells constitute various elements. Approximately 99% of the mass of an average human body consists of mainly 11

Compounds Formed by Group 14 Elements

In the periodic table, carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), tin (Sn), and lead (Pb) are known as group 14 or members of the carbon family in the p-block , whose external electron configuration ns2np2 is found with only two electrons in the p orbital.  If we pay attention to the radius of the elements

Calculations Involving Unit Dimensions

INTRODUCTION The smallest gathering of atoms that has the overall symmetry of a crystal, and the whole lattice is actually developed by repetition in three dimensions is named a unit. Crystalline solids display a daily and repeating pattern of constituent particles. Unit Cell Types Primitive Unit Cells Primitive Unit Cells are formed when the constituent
