The Chemistry talk

Doesn't nature help us? Bacteria, viruses, or fungi spread in the air faster than humans and infect. But thank God! He has made such plants, which give protection against microbes. One of them is Neem tree!   The scientific name of neem is Azadirachta indica, commonly known as neem, margosa, nim tree or Indian lilac. It is native to parts of the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia, but is naturalized and grown in tropical and subtropical areas worldwide. Neem tree is known for its drought resistance. In India, the tree is known by various nicknames such as "sacred tree," "panacea," "nature's medicine shop," "village medicine" and "aksir cure for all diseases." In the southern states of Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu in the Hindu tradition, the Amman festivals fall during the summer season. There is a good reason to celebrate festivals in the summer months (during the summer season) because certain heat-related diseases such...

We all know the phrase "Atoms are the building blocks of everything." But have you ever wondered what these tiny particles are made of or what goes on inside them? Let's take a trip into the extremely  interesting atomic playground! At the very center of an atom, there is the nucleus – think of it as being densed in the atom, a heavyweight core packed with protons and neutrons. Protons possess positive electrical charge while neutrons bear no charge at all. Now here’s where things get really fascinating – whirling around this nucleus in a frenetic atomic dance are electrons. These minute negatively charged particles are arranged in shells or energy levels which lie at different distances from the nucleus. Think of it like this: The sun is to the nucleus as planets orbiting around it are to electrons (though their pathways resemble fuzzy clouds rather than fixed orbits). Electrons in the innermost shell are tightly bound whereas those in the outermost shell(s) constitute a...

Human inventiveness has been used for centuries as the foundation of chemistry research. From ancient chemists to modern pioneers in food, pharmacology, medicine and materials, they have used their knowledge, experience, and intuition to solve the mysteries of the molecular world. However, a new era is emerging, propelled by the ever-expanding science of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Thanks to pixabay.com AI has been an effective tool for changing chemistry, boosting up research, development, and invention. Assuming that millions of molecules, each of which has the potential to become the next life-saving drug or breakthrough material, are identified by a specific property becomes very difficult and time-consuming. While AI can do this in a fraction of the time, identifying promising molecules based on specific properties. Approach can speed up the delivery of life saving medications to patients by cutting down on the time and expense involved in drug discovery. The impact of AI extend...

Introduction: Welcome, friends, to an attractive journey through the world of iodometry and iodimetry titration! These two titration methods, rooted in the interesting domain of redox chemistry, have played central roles in countless scientific discoveries and developments. Join me as we search into their histories, mechanisms, and applications, exposing the mysteries behind their efficacy in determining unknown concentrations of materials. Discovery : The finding of iodine itself started the talk of iodometric and iodimetric titration. In 1811, the clever French chemist Bernard Courtois accidentally discovered iodine while extracting sodium and potassium compounds from seaweed ash.  He observed a purple vapor of iodine during the experiment using seaweed and sulfuric acid. But this study was unrecognized; later, Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac, André Anpere, Sir Humphry Davy, and others continued further studies on it.  In 1813, Gay-Lussak presented a research paper on this new eleme...
