Positive And Negative Conduct Electricity
595 wordsElectrolytes are liquids that conduct electricity. Most need to be dissolved into water or another solvent. Battery's have an electrolyte in them, either as a liquid or as a paste. Liquid electrolytes are used in electrolysis, electroplating, and other chemical processes. When electrolytes dissolve they release positive and negative ions. The released ions carry electric charges between electrodes, in the solution. Cations (a positively charged ion that migrates to the cathode, a negative electr...

Johannes Van Der Waals
1,302 wordsJohannes Diderik van der Waals was born on November 23, 1837 in Leyden, located in The Netherlands. His parents were Jacobus van der Waals, a carpenter and Elisabeth van den Burg. Without having much money to start with, van der Waals had to work his way up the latter. After completing his elementary education in Leyden, he became a schoolteacher. Having no prior knowledge of classical languages, and being exempt from taking academic examinations, he continued studying at Leyden University in hi...

Johannes Van Der Waals
1,122 words... slightly negative and the other end of it is slightly positive. The Dispersion forces exist between non-polar molecules. Dispersion forces are another of van der Waals' three forces. They exist between non-polar molecules. It is important to remember that within a bond, electrons are constantly MOVING. They zoom around the atoms really quickly. As a result, there may be a tiny instant in that time span where the electrons happen to dominant on one side, rather than the other. However, this t...

Plasma Membrane Alzheimer Disease
950 wordsLipid Rafts A lipid raft is a micro domain within the membranes of cells that is cholesterol-rich. It has been believed since 1972 that, in cell membranes, membrane proteins and phospholipids are constantly and widely distributed as following a fluid mosaic model. Then in 1988, a scientist named Kai Simmons, who worked at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory located in Germany, suggested the notion that there exist micro domains, which are enriched with a lot of different kinds of lipids, s...

Hydrogen Bonding H 2
502 wordsElectron Pair Repulsion Theory: The electron pair repulsion theory states that the electron pairs in the valence energy level of an atom repel each other, and therefore are arranged as far apart as possible. For example, H 2 Our to this theory, different molecules with different amounts of pairs of electrons have different shapes. Shapes of Molecules: Some common shapes of molecules include linear, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, trigonal pyramidal and v-shaped (bent) molecules. Examples are drawn...

519 wordsThe Discovery Of The Electron The electron was discovered in 1895 by J. J. Thomson in the form of cathode rays, and was the first elementary particle to be identified. The electron is the lightest known particle which possesses an electric charge. Its rest mass is Me equal> 9. 1 x 10 - 28 g, about 1 / 1836 of the mass of the proton or neutron. The charge of the electron is -e = - 4. 8 x 10 ^- 10 esu tro static unit). The sign of the electrons charge is negative by convention, and that of the equ...

1,147 wordsFluorescence Study of the Kinetics of Energy Transfer Between Dyes 1. Introduction Coumarin 1 and Sodium fluorescein are two dyes which absorb and emit light in the visible region. By using a spectrophotometer we are recording an absorption spectrum and then determining the molar decade absorption coefficients, which will be used later to interpret and analyse the fluorescence spectra. For fluorescence spectra, there are two kinds, the excitation and the emission spectrum. The excitation spectru...

What is the difference btw intermolecular bonds and intramolecular bonds? Explain how dispersion forces form. Explain how dipole-dipole and hydrogen bonds form How does viscosity change with increasing and decreasing temperature?
