The Synthesized Zeolites

The focus of the review is on zeolite characterization, synthesis, and applications. Zeolite is a hydrated aluminosilicate with a tetrahedral structural framework that contains exchangeable active metal ions and water molecules in channels and cages. Different synthesis methods, including hydrothermal and green synthesis methods, were used to make zeolite.  The results of the characterization demonstrate […]

The Properties of Zeolites

Zeolite materials were first established in the eighteenth century when Baron Axel Fredrik Cronstedt, a Swedish scientist and pioneer of modern mineralogy, observed that when mineral “stilbite” is heated, moisture forms on its surface. Zeolites are crystalline aluminosilicates with open 3D-framework structures made up of SiO4 and AlO4 tetrahedra joined together by sharing all of

The Microscopic Scale

Meaning of microscopic scale: microscopic scale can be stated as the contact between the particles and the scale of the particles. The rotations of the particles, the position of contact forces, the position of the point of contact and the centre of the particles are the variables that are taken into consideration at the microscopic scale. At the

The Mechanism of Elimination Reaction

Chemistry involves multiple chemical reactions classified based on the type of mechanism and involving reagents. One such type of popular chemical reaction is the elimination reaction. It is the reaction that completes the substitution reaction. One equivalent of acid is replaced by an alkyl halide and eliminated in the elimination reaction. Let us cover all the topics related

The First Member Of The S-Block Elements Differs From The Rest Of Their Members Considerably

Atomic and ionic sizes are referred to as the distances away from the central atom or nucleus that has distinct periodic trends. “Low atomic and ionic size” in the periodic table is reflected in the S block group due to the alkali metals size being greater in comparison to other components in the specific period.

Tautomerism Reaction Mechanism

This configuration change of the compound is a process called tautomerization. They are certain types of structural isomers. Structural isomers are all molecules that have the same chemical formula. What makes tautomers worthy of classification is that they easily interconvert between different morphologies. Many structural isomers do not easily convert to the corresponding isomers.  Mechanism
