by road vehicles. The second is hydrogen‚ the idea of using hydrogen‚ which is of course a gas and ambient conditions‚ came from the time when nuclear fusion was supposed to produce abundant electricity at very low cost‚ which could then be used to electrolyse water‚ yielding abundant and she cheap hydrogen. Unfortunately nuclear fusion has persisted in remaining on the horizon as a possible energy sources‚ and hence other strategies for generating hydrogen have been extensively investigated

solids. Structure: The simplest saturated acyclic hydrocarbon is methane‚ CH4. The other hydrocarbons belonging to this class can be taken as descendents of methane‚ resulted from the substitution of one or more atoms of hydrogen with hydrocarbon radicals. Therefore‚ if one hydrogen atom from methane is replaced by a methyl radical‚ -CH3‚ the hydrocarbon (superior to methane) will have the composition C2H6‚ named ethane. The alkanes can be: with a continuous chain‚ if all the carbon atoms are bound

1. Describe the nuclear fusion reaction that occurs in stars. Page 294 Stars are made primarily of the almond hydrogen the most common material universe. As a star forms‚ gravity pulls the hydrogen into a dense ball that heats up. Electrons are torn from the hydrogen and other atoms‚ creating a plasma made up primarily of protons (the nucleus of the hydrogen atom) and electrons. Normally‚ protons would repel each other. As matter accumulates ending the new star however‚ the protons move

started doing chemistry. Bubbles of hydrogen are formed‚ together with colourless solutions of beryllium or magnesium sulphate. For example: Calcium‚ strontium and barium Calcium sulphate is sparingly soluble‚ and you can think of strontium and barium sulphates as being insoluble. That means that you will get a layer of insoluble sulphate on all of these which will slow down the reaction or stop it entirely. In the calcium case‚ you will get some hydrogen produced together with a white

oxidize the benzoic acid as well as acting as a catalyst for the reaction. Potassium permanganate (KMnO4) is a very strong oxidant which is able to react with many functional groups‚ such as secondary alcohols‚ 1‚2-diols‚ aldehydes‚ alkenes‚ oximes‚ sulfides and thiols. It is heated under a reflux‚ this (heating in a flask with a condenser placed vertically in it) prevents any aldehyde formed in the reaction escape and allow it to have time to be oxidized to carboxylic acid.

and you tend to get carbon and hydrogen fluoride produced. It is of no particular interest. For example: The reaction between alkanes and iodine Iodine doesn’t react with the alkanes to any extent - at least‚ under normal lab conditions. The reactions between alkanes and chlorine or bromine There is no reaction in the dark. In the presence of a flame‚ the reactions are rather like the fluorine one - producing a mixture of carbon and the hydrogen halide. The violence of the reaction

ZINC Zinc is one of the natural elements on the periodic table. It was discovered in Germany in 1746‚ by Andreas Marggraf. The name is from the German‚ ‘zinc’‚ which may be derived from Persian‚ which means ‘sing’. The element was known to the Romans but they rarely used it. When it was first used it was recognized. Zinc has a specification of metal made from ore or another material a process of distillation by electrolysis. The atomic number for zinc is 30. The mass number is 65.39 mass units
