properties of inorganic materials

Classification of Magnetic Materials - On the basis of their magnetic properties different materials are classified as: Diamagnetic substance Paramagnetic substance Ferromagnetic substan..

Matter and Materials - Matter exists in several phases. If we look at all objects around us, we perceive that some materials have a definite shape and occupy a definite amount of space or volume. We call these materials solids and we can name many objects that are soli..

(e.g., TiO 2 , NaCl, C 6 H 6 ) are weakly repelled by external magnetic fields. This property is shown only by those substances which contain fully-filled orbitals i.e., no unpaired electrons is presen..

50% Anti-corrosion agent 6% Optical brightener 0.3% Water and inorganic filler 19.7% Tripolyphosphate can produce hydroxyl ions by reacting with water. It keeps the wash water slightly alkaline, to emulsify grease particles. They can also tie up calcium and magnes..

Acetic acid is a colorless, corrosive liquid with a pungent smell at ordinary temperatures. But below 290K, it solidifies to an icy mass called glacial acetic acid. It boils at 391K and its specific gravity is 1.08 at 273K. It is miscible with water, alcohol and ether in all ratios. It is a good s..

As we have seen, glass is a mixture of number of silicates. Therefore, when heated, it does not melt at a fixed temperature. But, it softens gradually and hence can be moulded into any desired shape. It is this property that makes glass one of the widely used materials..

Neoprene is superior to natural rubber because of the following properties: Neoprene is non-inflammable but natural rubber is inflammable. Neoprene is resistant to oils, organic solvents, petrol and grease. Natural rubber swells and rots in contact with these materials. ..
