THE IDEAL GAS LAW
THE IDEAL GAS LAW The pressure, volume, temperature, and amount of an ideal gas are related by one equation that was derived through the experimental work of several individuals, especially Boyle, Charles, and Gay‐Lussac. An ideal gas consists of identical, infinitesimally small particles that only interact occasionally. Boyle’s Law: Robert Boyle studied the relationship between the pressure p and...

The Chemistry Behind How Sparklers work:
All fireworks are not created equal! For example, there is a difference between a firecracker and a sparkler. The goal of a firecracker is to create a controlled explosion. A sparkler, on the other hand, burns over a long period of time (up to a minute) and produces a brilliant shower of sparks. Sometimes sparklers... Continue Reading →
THE VARIETY OF MATTER
" Matter is anything that occupies space" It includes everything from natural substanced, such as minerals or living organisms, to synthetic materials. Matter can exist in three distinct states - solid, liquid, gas. A solid is rigid and retains its shape. A liquid is fluid, has a definite volume, and will take the shape of... Continue Reading →

pH indicators- An overview:
An indicator is a substance which indicates the completion of a reaction by sharp colour change at the end point without taking part in the reaction. The substances which are used to indicate the end point in acid - base reactions are called as acid - base indicators.(eg., phenolphthalein and methyl orange). Those substances which...
