inorganic chemistry

This branch deals with the study of compounds of all other elements except carbon. It largely concerns itself with the study of minerals found in the Earth's crus..

Carbon combines readily to form binary compounds of oxides, halides, carbides etc., with a variety of elements. Carbonates and bicarbonates are very important class of carbon-containing inorganic compound..

The concepts of solubility product and common ion effect play an important role in qualitative analysis for the separation of basic radicals (cations) into different groups. Weak acids and weak bases ionise in water slightly and an equilibrium is established in their solutions. For example, in the..

Reasons for studying organic compounds as a separate branch of chemistry - Organic compounds are studied as a separate branch of chemistry because of the following reasons: Existence of innumerable organic compounds. Properties of organic compounds are distinctly different from ..

Conclusion - Currently, 106 elements are known to the human kind. The number of carbon compounds alone is much more than the number of compounds of all remaining 105 elements put together. The number of carbon compounds known to man is around 600,000 whereas the number of the compounds of all the r..

Introduction - Organic chemistry is that branch of chemistry which deals with the study of compounds of carbon with hydrogen (hydrocarbons), and their derivatives. Presently about five million organic compounds are known. Since the synthesis of urea from ammonium thiocyanate, ma..

Origin of Organic Chemistry Carbon compounds are of two types: inorganic and organic. The compounds that have a mineral origin fall under the category of inorganic compounds. The compounds having plant or animal origin are classified as organic compounds. ..
