Meaning of chemistry

 Hello! 

I'm here with my new blog. 

So, today I will discuss that what is chemistry.? Before studying anything we have to know about it. Without wasting more time I'm discussing my today's topic "chemistry".

Chemistry is the branch of science which deals with the properties of matter,

 composition of matter,

 reaction in matter,

 uses of matter, 

changes in matter 

and laws and principles which govern these changes. 

This is the brief definition of chemistry and describe every aspect of chemistry.

Relative Atomic Mass

 Hello readers! Hope you will be fine. Our today's topic is relative atomic mass. let's start! It is the average mass of the atoms of that element as compared to1/12th the mass of an atom of carbon-12 isotope. Based on carbon-12 as a standard, the mass of an atom of carbon is 12 units and 1/12th of it comes to be 1 unit. When we compare atomic masses of other elements with atomic masses of carbon-12 atom, they are expressed as relative atomic masses of those elements. The unit of relative atomic mass unit is amu (Atomic mass unit). One atomic mass unit is 1/12th the mass of one atom of carbon-12.  This was the short intro of Relative atomic mass.  See you next with another topic. Thank you!

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

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
