Formula of naphthalene
C10 H8, deca carbon octa hydrite
Why our nose is selective to oxygen
The nasal mucosa, particularly the olfactory epithelium located in the upper part of the nasal cavity, plays a crucial role in detecting and filtering oxygen as it enters the body.
A word which define how much something evaporates
Volatility
The force of attraction between the particles of the same substances known as
Cohesion
Formula of Ammonium Chloride
[Nh4]Cl, nitrogen tetra hydride chloride
What is the chemical formula of ammonia
Nitrogen trihydride, NH3
What is adiabatic expansion
When a gas expands without transferring heat to its surrounding
Why when a gas escapes from low pressure to high pressure, it reduces its thermal energy, though its kinetic energy is very high
Because the rate of collusion is low
Acetone formula
C36HO, tricarbon hexahydrite O
What is the solution of iodine and alcohol called which is also known as an antiseptic
Tincture of iodine
Why materials sublimate
Because of high vapor pressure
What is an aqueous solution
It’s a solution where the water is solvent, and the dissolved substance may be a solid liquid or a gas.
What is solvent in chemestry
A solvent is any substance, usually liquid, which is capable 9f dissolving many substances in it. Example water.
What you mean by capillary action
Capillary action is the ability of a liquid to flow in narrow spaces or tubes, against the force of gravity, due to the combined effects of surface tension, cohesion, and adhesion. This phenomenon occurs because the liquid molecules are more attracted to the surface of the container (adhesion) than to each other (cohesion). As a result, the liquid climbs or moves upward in narrow tubes or porous materials, such as soil, paper, or a thin glass tube, until the forces of gravity and surface tension reach an equilibrium.
What is the process called where we remove the low density material by pouring the above one
Decantation
What is the chemical formula of phenyl
Hexa carbon Penta hydride, C6H5
