Introduction

 Hello everyone! I hope you all will be fine. Myself Maheen. And I'm masters in CHEMISTRY. Chemistry is not only a subject for me but it's passion for me. It's really interesting for me to study this subject. Some people take it difficult but I think it's not difficult. Actually they are not made to study chemistry. If you love a field it becomes easy for you. By the way if you keep in touch with me I will tell you a lot about my subject, my experience.

Carbon Cycle

CARBON CYCLE: Carbon circulates through the carbon cycle. It shows that carbon may be pres- ent as gaseous atmospheric CO2 constituting a relatively small but highly significant portion of global carbon. Some of the carbon is dissolved in surface water and groundwater as HCO-3 or molecular CO2 (aq). A very large amount of carbon is present in minerals, particularly magnesium and calcium carbonates such as CaCO3. Photosynthesis fixes inorganic C as biological carbon. represented as (CH2O), which is a constituent of all life molecules. Another fraction of carbon is fixed as petroleum and natural gas, with a much larger amount as hydrocarbonaceous kerogen (the organic matter in oil shale), coal, and lignite. Manufacturing processes are used to convert hydro- carbons to xenobiotic compounds with functional groups containing halogens, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus, or sulfur. Although a very small amount of total environmental carbon, these com- pounds are particularly significant because of...

Structure of Atom(Part 5)

 Rutherford's Atomic Model: Rutherford performed 'Gold Foil' experiment to understand how negative and positive charges could coexist in an atom. He bombarded alpha particles on a 0.00004  cm thick gold foil. Alpha particles are emitted by radioactive elements like radium and polonium. These are actually helium nuclei (He2+). They can penetrate through matter to some extent. He observed the effects of α-particles on a photographic plate or a screen coated with zinc sulphide. He proved that the 'plum-pudding' model of the atom was not correct.  Observations made by Rutherford were as follows: i.Almost all the particles passed through the foil un-deflected. ii.Out of 20000 particles, only a few were deflected at fairly large angles and very few bounced back on hitting the gold foil. Results of the experiment: Keeping in view the experiment, Rutherford proposed planetary model for an atom and concluded following results: i.Since most of the particles passed through th...

Cycles of Matter

 Very much connected with environmental chemistry, cycles of matter, often based on elemental cycles, are of utmost importance in the environment. Global geochemical cycles can be regarded from the viewpoint of various reservoirs, such as oceans, sediments, and the atmosphere, connected by conduits through which matter moves continuously among the hydrosphere, atmosphere, geo- sphere, biosphere, and, increasingly, the anthrosphere. The movement of a specific kind of matter between two particular reservoirs may be reversible or irreversible. The fluxes of movement for particular kinds of matter vary greatly as do the contents of such matter in a specified reservoir. Most cycles of matter have a strong biotic component, especially through the biochemical processesof plants and microorganisms. The cycles in which organisms participate are called biogeochemical cycles, which describe the circulation of matter, particularly plant and animal nutrients, through ecosystems. Most biogeoche...
