Isomerism class 11

 Isomerism


name of the chapter: Isomerism

Content Provider: FIITJEE

Lecturer from FIITJEE


NCERT content :

isomerism, the existence of molecules that have the same numbers of the same kinds of atoms (and hence the same formula) but differ in chemical and physical properties. ... Such structures also would be analogous to isomers.

In chemistry, isomers are molecules or polyatomic ions with identical molecular formulas — that is, the same number of atoms of each element — but distinct arrangements of atoms in space. Isomerism is the existence or possibility of isomers. Isomers do not necessarily share similar chemical or physical properties

Isomerism is the phenomenon in which compounds have the same molecular formula but different structures and these different structures are called isomersIsomers are those that have different physical and chemical properties.

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...

Hydrocarbon class 10 & 9 carbon and its compunds

  Hydrocarbons   What is a hydrocarbon?   *  In organic chemistry, a hydrocarbon is a compound consisting primarily of carbon and hydrogen along with other elements added on as functional groups Few examples of Hydrocarbons are *Methane *Ethane *Ethanol *Propane *Butane Types of hydrocarbons: *The hydrocarbons can be classified as *Open chain or acyclic hydrocarbons *Cyclic hydrocarbons *Acyclic hydrocarbons have a linear structure and do not form rings *Cyclic hydrocarbons have a structure like a ring Acyclic Hydrocarbons: * Organic compounds in which all the carbon atoms are linked to one another to  form an open chain are called Acyclic Hydrocarbons. *These can be saturated or unsaturated Saturated Hydrocarbons: *The Hydrocarbons where the carbon atoms are linked by only single bonds are  called saturated Hydrocarbons. *They are also alkanes and parrafins Unsaturated Hydrocarbons * The carbon ...

Purification Characterisation of Organic Compounds class 11

  Purification  Characterisation of Organic Compounds  name of the chapter:  Purification  Characterisation of Organic Compounds  Content Provider: FIITJEE Lecturer from FIITJEE simple notes: Organic compounds extracted from a natural source or synthesized in the laboratory require purification. Various methods are used for purification and are based on the nature of the compound and the impurity present in it. The purity of a compound is ascertained by determining its melting point or boiling point or by chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques. Fraction distillation  can be defined as a process where the separation of a mixture takes place. A mixture of various components such as chemical components can be easily vaporized by heating them to a temperature more than their boiling point and forming different fractions. embedded pdf:
