Molecules and Compounds
Everything in the universe is made up of matter, and matter is composed of a combination of elements. An atom is the smallest unit of an element…
Chemical Formulas
A chemical formula presents information about the proportions of atoms constituting a particular chemical compound or molecule, mainly using symbols…
Molecular Models
Physical models representing molecular architectures of chemical compounds play essential roles in understanding chemistry. The use of molecular…
Classification of Elements and Compounds
Pure substances consist of only one type of matter. A pure substance can be an element or a compound. An element consists of only one type of atom,…
Ionic Compounds: Formulas and Nomenclature
An element composed of atoms that readily lose electrons (a metal) can react with an element composed of atoms that readily gain electrons (a…
Molecular Compounds: Formulas and Nomenclature
Molecular compounds or covalent compounds result when atoms share electrons to form covalent bonds. Since there is no electron transfer, molecular…
Organic Compounds
All living things are formed mostly of carbon compounds called organic compounds. The category of organic compounds includes both natural and…
Formula Mass and Mole Concepts of Compounds
Chemical formulas represent the elemental makeup of substances. For covalent compounds, the formula represents the numbers and types of atoms…
Experimental Determination of Chemical Formula
The elemental makeup of a compound defines its chemical identity, and chemical formulas are the most concise way of representing this elemental…
Chemical Equations
Chemical equations represent the identities and relative quantities of substances involved in a chemical reaction. The substances undergoing reaction…
Using Cyclic Voltammetry, UV-Vis-NIR, and EPR Spectroelectrochemistry to Analyze Organic Compounds
Cyclic voltammetry (CV) is a technique used in the analysis of organic compounds. When this technique is combined with electron paramagnetic…
Synthesis of Bimetallic Pt/Sn-based Nanoparticles in Ionic Liquids
We demonstrate a method for the synthesis of bimetallic nanoparticles consisting of Pt and Sn. A synthesis strategy is used in which the particular…
Interactive Molecular Model Assembly with 3D Printing
With the growth in accessibility of 3D printing, there has been a growing application of and interest in additive manufacturing processes in chemical…
