Fajan rules: Covalecy in ionic compounds
Fajan’s rules can be used to determine the tendency of ionic compounds to acquire covalent character as a result of polarization. K. Fajan studied the factors which introduced the covalent … Read more

Qualitative salt analysis is the process of determining the number of constituents present in an unknown salt sample. The common ion effect is most commonly used in the salt analysis, i.e. … Read more
Common ion effect refers to the suppression of a weak electrolyte’s degree of ionization by the addition of a strong electrolyte that shares one ion with it. Therefore, the common ion … Read more
The term ‘atomic orbital’ refers to the physical space or region around an atom’s nucleus where the probability of a specific electron being present is greatest. The mathematical representation of … Read more
Trace elements are any chemical elements found in trace amounts in the body. Trace elements can be categorized as potentially toxic, likely essential, or nutritionally essential. The nutritionally necessary components … Read more
Quantum mechanics is needed to comprehend how electrons behave in atoms and molecules and the wave function is used to describe electrons and contain all the knowledge we have about … Read more
Different atomic orbitals have different shapes. In other words, they describe different probability distributions for the electrons that surround the nucleus. One of the reasons why orbitals vary in energy … Read more
Transition metal complexes, also known as coordination complexes, are molecules with groups organized around a central metal ion. In some ways, these are similar to “lego-molecules,” as they can be … Read more
Lanthanides are a set of 15 chemical elements whose atomic numbers range from 57 to 71. These are the elements in the periodic table’s f-block of period six. Each of … Read more
