Essays on Chemistry

Introduction and Brief Analysis We live on an extraordinarily big Planet with countless things in it. But, have you ever wondered what is that one thing that is the most expensive in the world among so many things? You probably have, which is why you…

Introduction In surface chemistry, adsorption stands for the adhesion of chemical species onto the surface of particles. Adsorptions are usually done with the help of adsorbents. These adsorbent surface acts as an effective adsorptive sites that attracts pollutant ions to accommodate into the vacant sites….

Photosynthesis is a chemical reaction that takes place inside a plant, it has two stages known as the light reactions and the Calvin Cycle which then divides into photosystem I and photosystem II. It is known as the process that feeds the biosphere which involves…

The driving forces for the low molecular weight gelators ( LMWGs ) where it self-assembles are due to dipole- dipole attraction, hydrogen- bonding, π- π interactions, and the van der Waals forces. For the construction of an LMWG, it is efficient if it uses low…

Alkali Metals Lithium is on the top of Alkali metals and the lights out of all the metals. It is so light that it will float on water unlike some metals, and when it comes in contact with water it reacts by fizzing and putting…

Chlorination reactions are key processes used in industry and are also utilized in the public sector. In terms of the atomic level a chlorination reaction is any reaction or process in which chlorine, and no other element, are introduced into a molecule. These reactions must…

Ideas and practices have an intriguing way of emanating and spreading across communities, countries, and geographical regions. Numerous diffusion events are highlighted occasionally in mass media as it shapes and radically transforms the daily lives of multitudes of people around the world. Notable examples include…

SOL-Gel Processing Dong et al describes a method to synthesize iodine butyl-n-sulfonate amino polysiloxane {(IB-N-SA) PDMS} using poly(4-iodobutoxy) methylsiloxane and guanidine sulfamate. The cotton fabric was then soaked in a bath of (IB-N-SA) PDMS, zirconium oxide chloride, and urea at room temperature for four minutes…

Chemistry is important because of all the inventions it has created and of all the things it has explained. If it wasn’t for chemistry, we wouldn’t have the majority of the medicines we have today. In chemistry, they develop and test new medicines which keep…

Graphene oxide (GO) was prepared from natural graphite powder using a modified Hummers’ method (Ji et al. , 2012), (Wang et al. , 2011). Fe3O4 microspheres were produced tracing a solvothermal method published formerly (Deng et al. , 2010). FeCl3. 6H2O (4. 32 g) and…
