Amino acids are the building block of the protein and also serve as the nitrogenous backbone for the compounds like neurotransmitters and hormones. Chemically they are the organic compounds containing both amino (-NH2 ) and carboxylic (-COOH) groups. So, they … Read more
Phenols are aromatic compounds with a hydroxyl group directly connected to an aromatic ring. They are hydroxy derivatives of benzene. The general formula of phenol is C6H6O. Phenol was discovered by Runge (1834) in coal-tar and he named it carbolic … Read more
An ionic solid dissolves in water, which causes the crystal lattice to disintegrate and the ions to disperse. Overcoming the attractive forces between ions necessitates a significant amount of energy. Enthalpy of Solution The enthalpy of solution refers to the … Read more
Infrared spectroscopy is the measurement of the interaction of IR radiation with compounds. IR region involves the range between region 400-4000 cm-1. IR radiation causes the excitation of molecules from lower to higher vibrational levels. These vibrational levels are associated … Read more
The mass spectrometer is generally designed to perform three basic functions, they are: Instrumentation of Mass Spectrometry (MS) Sample handling system The sample handling system is used to introduce the sample into the ion source at low pressure. Heating is … Read more
Organic synthesis involves a specific series of chemical reactions that transform starting elements into the desired product, known as the synthesis target (or target molecule). Synthesis is often the result of numerous distinct processes known as synthetic stages. History of organic synthesis … Read more
Polymer is composed of two Greek words (i.e., poly= many and mer= simple unit). So, polymers are large molecules (macromolecules) formed by the combination of simple units. The simple compounds from which polymers are formed are called monomers. Name of … Read more
Hydropathy plot, a plot that is used for the determination of the hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of protein’s amino acid. It is employed to describe or pinpoint a protein’s potential structure or domains. The plot’s y-axis represents the degree of hydrophilicity … Read more
Our solar system consists of the Sun, which is a star, eight planets, 146 moons, numerous comets, asteroids, and other celestial objects like space rocks and ice. Additionally, there are several dwarf planets, including Pluto. The eight planets in order … Read more
