Hydrocarbon class 11

HYDROCARBON ALKENE

name of the chapter: Hydrocarbon

Content Provider: FIITJEE

Lecturer from FIITJEE

simple notes:

A compound of carbon and hydrogen is known as a hydrocarbon. A hydrocarbon is said to be saturated if it contains only C—C single bonds. Benzene and its derivatives are called aromatic compounds

introduction of NCERT:

The term ‘hydrocarbon’ is self-explanatory which means compounds of carbon and hydrogen only. Hydrocarbons play a key role in our daily life. You must be familiar with the terms ‘LPG’ and ‘CNG’ used as fuels. LPG is the abbreviated form of liquified petroleum gas whereas CNG stands for compressed natural gas. Another term ‘LNG’ (liquified natural gas) is also in news these days. This is also a fuel and is obtained by the liquefaction of natural gas. Petrol, diesel, and kerosene oil are obtained by the fractional distillation of petroleum found under the earth’s crust. Coal gas is obtained by the destructive distillation of coal. Natural gas is found in the upper strata during the drilling of oil wells. The gas after compression is known as compressed natural gas. LPG is used as a domestic fuel with the least pollution. Kerosene oil is also used as a domestic fuel but it causes some pollution. Automobiles need fuels like petrol, diesel, and CNG. Petrol and CNG-operated automobiles cause less pollution. All these fuels contain a mixture of hydrocarbons, which are sources of energy. Hydrocarbons are also used for the manufacture of polymers like polythene, polypropene, polystyrene, etc. Higher hydrocarbons are used as solvents for paints. They are also used as the starting materials for the manufacture of many dyes and drugs. Thus, you can well understand the importance of hydrocarbons in your daily life. In this unit, you will learn more about hydrocarbons.

Chemical Kinetics class 12

Chemical Kinetics name of the chapter: Chemical Kinetics Content Provider: FIITJEE Lecturer from FIITJEE Introduction based on NCERT: Chemistry, by its very nature, is concerned with change. Substances with well-defined properties are converted by chemical reactions into other substances with different properties. For any chemical reaction, chemists try to find out (a) the feasibility of a chemical reaction which can be predicted by thermodynamics ( as you know that a reaction with ΔG < 0, at constant temperature and pressure is feasible); (b) the extent to which a reaction will proceed can be determined from chemical equilibrium; (c) speed of a reaction i.e. time taken by a reaction to reach equilibrium. Along with feasibility and extent, it is equally important to know the rate and the factors controlling the rate of a chemical reaction for its complete understanding. For example, which parameters determine how rapidly food gets spoiled? How to design a rapid...

Periodic Table Shortcut

Periodic table shortcut Name of the page: shortcut for periodic table Done by: FIITJEE Student Applicable for all the classes What is a Periodic Table? a table of the chemical elements arranged in order of atomic number, usually in rows, so that elements with similar atomic structure (and hence similar chemical properties) appear in vertical columns. The periodic table, also known as the periodic table of elements, is a tabular display of the chemical elements, which are arranged by atomic number, electron configuration, and recurring chemical properties. The structure of the table shows periodic trends. who invented the periodic table? many collections of scientists invented it. Embedded PDF:

Solid state class 12 Physical

Solid states name of the chapter: Solid State Content Provider: FIITJEE Lecturer from FIITJEE Introduction given by NcertText book: We are mostly surrounded by solids and we use them more often than liquids and gases. For different applications, we need solids with widely different properties. These properties depend upon the nature of constituent particles and the binding forces operating between them. Therefore, the study of the structure of solids is important. The correlation between structure and properties helps in discovering new solid materials with desired properties like high-temperature superconductors, magnetic materials, biodegradable polymers for packaging, biocompliant solids for surgical implants, etc. From our earlier studies, we know that liquids and gases are called fluids because of their ability to flow. The fluidity in both of these states is due to the fact that the molecules are free to move about. On the contrary, the constitu...
