Introduction Definition of Disaccharides is a compound that consists of two units of monosaccharides like glucose, fructose, galactose, and mannose. Disaccharides are generally formed in plants and they can be separated from plant material. Formation of disaccharides Condensation reaction and glycosidic bond formation In the presence of acid, a glycosidic bond is formed between two … Read more
Introduction In 1923 Bronsted and Lowry proposed this theory to define acid and base. It’s applied on both aqueous and non-aqueous solution. They focused on the movement of hydrogen ions. Definition According to this theory, Acids are substances (molecules or ions) that have the tendency to donate protons (H+) and bases are substances that are … Read more
Introduction Silver is not only used for making jewelry but also is required for many industrial purposes like batteries, dentistry, nuclear reactors to photography (1). However, the pure form of silver is very soft as well as expensive and can not fulfill the demands of the growing industries. Thus, alloys of silver are widely used … Read more
Know in one minute about tautomerization Tautomerism is the process in which a single compound exists in two interconvertible structures that differ in the relative position of at least one hydrogen atom. The two different structures are known as tautomers of each other. Tautomerism is also known as dynamic isomerism as the two forms of … Read more
Introduction Functional groups of carbon are groups of elements that on adding to a carbon chain or elemental chains like that of a nitrogen or similar atoms, changes the property of the particular chain. By adding these functional groups one can achieve the synthesis of a completely new compound, which has different structures, physical and … Read more
Introduction The chemical element carbon is one of the most commonly used elements in day-to-day life. One can find carbon in almost all the objects present around. Knowing about its chemical properties, physical properties of objects made by carbon, its atomic structure, etc. is a necessity. By knowing all these properties one can build, construct … Read more
Introduction Carbon is considered to be the element that is present in almost all objects that we use in our day-to-day life and also is the basic element for the formation of almost all biological and abiological beings present on our planet Earth. Its elements are spread all over and are widely used to make … Read more
Introduction In science, almost all quantities being measured have a specific unit or way to complete the measurement process. Some quantities are measured using a single parameter while some require multiple parameters to do so. Concentration is one such term that plays a crucial role in the field of chemistry. Through concentration, one can produce … Read more

Properties of Bronze include its reddish-brown color, better strength, and hardness than copper, less conduction than copper, and resistance … Read more
Know about Physisorption in one minute Physisorption is a type of adsorption process that involves weak van der Waals forces between the adsorbate and the adsorbent surface. It is characterized by reversible interactions that do not result in the formation of a new chemical species. It is not specific in nature. And reversible in nature. … Read more
