Do you feel the water balloons hard on your palms? In such a context, we always consider the balloons to be heavy. This is where we go wrong. It is not the balloon’s weight that makes it heavy. It is the water’s weight inside the balloon.  The term, pressure, can be applied to various fields. […]

The best distinction between the new orbitals and the antique orbitals is the power and form of the orbitals.  Hybridisation is a mechanism in which the orbitals of an element combine to produce new orbitals for the atoms. It is used to learn about the many types of bonds, bond lengths, and energy that can

Hybridisation is a concept in organic chemistry used to explain chemical bonding when the valence bond theory fails to provide an adequate explanation. This hypothesis is beneficial for explaining organic molecules’ covalent bonding. Hybridisation is the intermixing of atomic orbitals of various shapes with approximately the same energy to produce the same number of hybrid

There are various mixtures in chemistry made by combining different substances that have different or similar mediums. Whether these substances are in liquid, solid or gaseous phases, they are combined to form a colloid or mixture. These mixtures and colloids are important in chemistry since they form a base for creating and storing a lot

Catalysts are compounds that affect the rate of a process by changing the nature of a reaction. A catalyst is frequently used to speed up or increase the rate of a chemical process. There are many types of catalysts in solid, liquid, and gaseous states. Metals and semi-metallic elements like aluminium and silicon are considered

The colloidal dispersion of two non-miscible liquids, where one liquid acts as the medium of dispersion and the other as a dispersed phase, is known as an emulsion. In simple words, an emulsion is a mixture that consists of two liquids that don’t mix with each other.  The word emulsion is derived from Latin, which

When two atomic orbitals integrate together to form a hybrid orbital in a single molecule, the redistribution of orbital energy of individual atoms occurs, resulting in the equivalent energy of an orbit. Hybridisation is the term used to describe this process. The hybrid orbitals are the new orbitals that are formed as a result of

A solar cell is an electrical device that, through the photovoltaic effect, converts the energy of light directly into electricity. The photovoltaic effect is both a physical and chemical phenomenon. When exposed to light, it is a type of photoelectric cell, which is defined as a device whose electrical characteristics such as current, voltage, or

Zeolites and silicones are basically types of microporous. Formation of this type of microporous happens with the help of three-dimensional crystalline solids of aluminum silicate. A small opening side is fixed in zeolites. From this opening side, small molecules enter through it easily. But large molecules can not banter from this opening side. This is

A real gas will not behave like an ideal gas (molecules have no volume and do not interact) due to interactions between their gas molecules. Real gases are non-ideal gases with molecules that occupy space and interact between themselves, and thus do not obey the ideal gas law. The ideal gas law does not apply
