Everything we can see and touch, and quite a lot that we can’t as well, is made of tiny particles called atoms. Some substances, like particles of this iron, contain only one kind of atom. Iron is an ...

What's the difference between a compound and a mixture? What is the difference between a compound and a mixture? Understand the differences and why mixtures are important.

Catalysis: They are essential in catalysis, particularly in processes like hydrogenation, hydroformylation, and polymerisation. For example, Ziegler-Natta catalysts, which are organometallic compounds ...

As paint thinner, ink and adhesives dry, they can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which can negatively impact health. Typically, one of those VOCs is xylene, which exists as three isomers ...

In quality control and chemistry, analytical samples are usually mixtures. Understanding the main compound’s assay and the number of impurities or other unwanted substances in the sample is essential ...

The film discusses the classification of matter into homogeneous and heterogeneous types, focusing on elements, compounds, and mixtures. It explains the properties of two elements, iron and sulfur, ...
