The development of chemistry begins since the days of Alchemy is the 5th century BC which began in Alexandria, Egypt and developed into China. The chemistry that developed at that time was called alchemy. At that time Alexandrian alchemists tried to turn stones into gold. The development of alchemy in China produces useful gunpowder to […]
Chemistry is a branch of science that deals with the properties and physical and chemical characteristics of matter or matter and its interaction with energy. There are many differences that can be seen when comparing basic chemistry and modern chemistry. Basic chemistry comes from ancient times, namely in the days of scientists named alchemists. Importance […]
Alkanes, alkenes, and alkynes are similar in name but they are slightly different. Eventhough the use of them may overlaps in some cases, each of them is a compound on their own. Alkanes is hydrocarbon compound with one single bond. As for the alkenes, it has for the very least double bonds compared to alkanes […]
