A solution with a pH value which is less than 7 is acidic. The acids which react with metals usually have quite a low pH, of either 3 or less. Some metals react with acids and when they do the ...

Carboxylic acids can carry out the same reactions as other acids, for example the reactions with metals and metal carbonate. Carboxylic acids are weak acids, and will react more slowly than other, ...

image: Acids are reactive, with even weak acids like vinegar interacting with other materials to wow students. But strong acids can really put on a show. For example, aqua regia, or royal water, is a ...

There are 118 elements known at present. There are similarities as well as differences are the properties of these elements on the basis of their, all the element can be divided three types: Metal; ...

Origin-of-life researchers face a deceptively straightforward question: how did simple chemicals produce complex biochemistry? The complexity of this starts to come in when you consider the many ...

Catalysis: They are essential in catalysis, particularly in processes like hydrogenation, hydroformylation, and polymerisation. For example, Ziegler-Natta catalysts, which are organometallic compounds ...

This protocol describes the preparation of an N-methyl-asparagine-linked glycosyl amino acid, on the basis of a reaction between carboxylic acids and isonitriles. Under microwave/thermolysis, ...
