A screw gauge is a tool used to measure very thin objects like sheets of metal or wires. It provides greater precision than Vernier’s Callipers. Sometimes it is also called a …
SN1 and SN2 reactions are two kinds of organic reactions. Specifically, they are “Nucleophilic Substitution Reactions”. We are going to discuss the terminology involved here and find out the difference …
Surface Tension is a measure of a liquid’s tendency to minimize its surface area. Dimensions of surface tension can be derived from its definition. It can be defined as the …
Cannizzaro Reaction is a chemical reaction that involves the base-induced disproportionation of two molecules of a non-enolizable aldehyde to give primary alcohol and carboxylic acid. History This reaction was first …
Group-1 Elements of the Modern Periodic Table consist of Hydrogen(H), Lithium(Li), Sodium(Na), Potassium(K), Rubidium(Rb), Caesium(Cs), and Francium(Fr). Out of these elements except for hydrogen, the remaining elements are popularly known …
Newton’s universal law of gravitation establishes a relationship between every particle and every other particle in the universe. The publication of the theory is called the “First Great Unification”, as …
The Clemmensen reduction is a chemical reaction that allows the reduction of ketones to alkanes using zinc amalgam and concentrated hydrochloric acid. This reaction is named after Danish chemist, Erik …
Newlands’ Law of Octaves is an early attempt to classify elements based on periodic properties. It set the stage for later, more complete methods like Mendeleev’s and the Modern Periodic …
Monocots and Dicots are two kinds of plants. Their difference is the number of cotyledons they have. Cotyledon is a structure found in embryonic plants, that helps them survive the …
