Composition of Mixture
There are two categories of matter according to composition: pure substances and mixtures. A pure substance is made up of only one type of atom or molecule, whereas a mixture … Read more
Physical chemistry studies the states and transformations of matter at low energies, mainly atomic entities, which is essentially the subject of chemistry, using physics methodologies, concepts, and techniques.
It is concerned with the study of matter and energy, as well as their interactions.

All matter is composed of atoms that can combine to form elements, compounds, and molecules at the molecular level. Despite having so many different parts, matter can be broadly divided … Read more
When a solute is added, the boiling point of a solvent rises, a process known as elevation of boiling point. The boiling point of a solvent solution that contains a … Read more
When a non-volatile solute is added to a solvent, some of the solute molecules take up surface space and decrease the rate of evaporation. Since they are non-volatile, these solutes … Read more
A colligative property is an important concept in chemistry. The term “colligative” was derived from the Latin word “colligatus,” which means “bound together.” Colligative properties explain how the properties of a solution … Read more
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules through a semi-permeable membrane from a high-concentration area to a low-concentration area. Osmosis happens across the cellular membrane to protect a cell from becoming … Read more
Heat has varying effects on various compounds. On a hot day, a metal chair placed in direct sunlight may get very warm to the touch. In the same sun, a … Read more
Studies of the kinetics of a chemical system, like the effect of changes in reactant concentrations, can be used to figure out things that happen on a microscopic scale. These … Read more
The study of the flow of heat or any other form of energy into or out of a system as it undergoes a physical or chemical transformation is called Thermodynamics. … Read more
