  2. Flame test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_test

    A flame test is relatively quick test for the presence of some elements in a sample. The technique is archaic and of questionable reliability, but once was a component of qualitative inorganic analysis .

  3. List of chemistry mnemonics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemistry_mnemonics

    A mnemonic is a memory aid used to improve long-term memory and make the process of consolidation easier. Many chemistry aspects, rules, names of compounds, sequences of elements, their reactivity, etc., can be easily and efficiently memorized with the help of mnemonics.

  4. Coulometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coulometry

    In analytical electrochemistry, coulometry is the measure of charge transfer during an electrochemical redox reaction. [1] It can be used for precision measurements of charge, but coulometry is mainly used for analytical applications to determine the amount of matter transformed.

  5. Incandescent light bulb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incandescent_light_bulb

    The halogen lamp reduces uneven evaporation of the filament and eliminates darkening of the envelope by filling the lamp with a halogen gas at low pressure, along with an inert gas. The halogen cycle increases the lifetime of the bulb and prevents its darkening by redepositing tungsten from the inside of the bulb back onto the filament. The ...

  8. Functional group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_group

    Haloalkanes are a class of molecule that is defined by a carbon–halogen bond. This bond can be relatively weak (in the case of an iodoalkane) or quite stable (as in the case of a fluoroalkane). In general, with the exception of fluorinated compounds, haloalkanes readily undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions or elimination reactions. The ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemistry

    Chemistry is the scientific study of the properties and behavior of matter. [1] It is a physical science within the natural sciences that studies the chemical elements that make up matter and compounds made of atoms, molecules and ions: their composition, structure, properties, behavior and the changes they undergo during reactions with other substances.
