The rate of reaction refers to the speed that products take to form through the reactants when a chemical reaction occurs. Furthermore, it also provides essential insights into the timeframe needed to complete a reaction. For instance, the reaction rate of the combustion of cellulose in fire is much higher, and the reaction completes in […]

An enzyme attracts substrates to its active site, catalyses chemical reactions that produce products, and then allows the products to dissociate. Enzyme-substrate complexes are formed when enzymes are combined with their substrates. A general mechanism of action of an enzyme is to reduce the activation energy. The activation energy of an enzyme is increased with

The synthesis of an alkene can be done by dehydration of alcohol. Water is eliminated to form a double bond in the process of dehydration of alcohol by using E1 and E2 mechanisms. The alkene is produced when the alcohol reacts with the protic acid, leading to the loss of water molecules. This is the

In a general chemical reaction, the reactants react to produce products. When an arrow indicating chemical equilibrium is marked between the reactants and products that depicts that the said reaction is reversible in nature. In a reversible chemical reaction, as soon as the products are formed they react to produce back the original products. Chemical

Limestone is among the most extensively used and least expensive alkalising agents globally. It is frequently used in chemical operations in the form of slaked or calcium hydroxide. The heat breakdown of limestone into quick Limestone and carbon dioxide is referred to as “Limestone Calcination.” It’s often referred to as “Calcination.” Fairly basic chemical processes

Law of mass action: In chemistry, law of mass action is defined as the theory that the rate of chemical reaction is directly proportional to the product of the concentrations of the reactants in a chemical equation.The rate of  reaction of a substance is proportional to the active mass and the reaction is directly proportional

Concept of chemical equilibrium Chemical equilibrium is defined as a state where both reactants and products are present in the  concentration and have no tendency to change further with time. There will be no observable changes in the properties of any particular system in the present.  The equilibrium rate of forward and backward reactions is

Chemical kinetics is one of the most important and exciting domains of chemistry that studies the speeds and processes of chemical reactions. Kinetic studies may also be used to demonstrate how a chemical process’s pace can be changed. In this article, you will look at the kinetics of one particular hydrogen peroxide chemical reaction between

Introduction Catalysis is the process of altering the rate of a reaction. To alter the reaction rate, we add a substance called a catalyst. These catalysts are added in a small quantity and recovered after the reaction completes. Based on the catalyst phase, the type of catalysis can be classified into two broad types: Homogeneous

Introduction Thomas Graham, a Scottish physical chemist, proposed Graham’s law of effusion (also known as Graham’s law of diffusion) in 1848. Graham discovered that a Gas’s effusion rate is inversely proportional to the square root of its particles molar mass. What is Diffusion? The movement of particles from a higher concentration to a lower concentration
