How to Find Lattice Energy?
The lattice energy is the energy released when one mole of ionic crystal is formed from the gaseous ions. It can also be defined as [...]
Derivation of Van’t Hoff Equation and its Applications
The Van't Hoff equation concerns how the equilibrium constant (Keq) changes with the change in temperature. This equation was proposed by the Dutch chemist Jacobus [...]
Double Displacement Reactions: A Perfect Give & Take
In chemistry, there are multiple terms used to describe a reaction based on the nature of its reactants. Double displacement reactions also called double replacement [...]
Triple point: When the Three States of Matter Meet
Triple point is the unique physical property of a substance at which it co-exists in all three states of matter i.e. solid, liquid, and gas [...]
Net Ionic Equation: Unveiling the Hidden Reaction
In a chemical reaction, reactants combine to form products. A chemical reaction is represented by a chemical equation. A net ionic equation is a chemical [...]
Stereoselectivity: Significance, Types, and Examples
Stereoselectivity is the process in which the formation of one of the stereoisomers is preferred over another during a chemical reaction. In a stereoselective reaction, [...]
Regioselectivity: Reactions and Examples
Regioselectivity is the preferential formation or breaking of chemical bonds in one direction over all possible directions. It results in the formation of regioisomers and [...]
Hund’s Rule: Harmonious Electronic Distribution
In Aufbau principle, electrons are filled in subshells in increasing order of energy, like 1s is filled before 2s. The value of (n+ℓ) is 1 [...]
Enolates: Preparation, Stability, and Reactions
Enolates are important organic reactive intermediates. They have the dual characteristics of both alkoxide and carbanion. Enolates can be synthesized from carbonyl compounds, such as [...]
Carbene: Types, Preparation, and Reactions
A carbene is a highly reactive intermediate that contains six valence electrons on the carbon atom. It is formed in a basic medium and acts [...]
