molecular compounds rules.It is also essential that you memorize some common polyatomic ions. Polyatomic ions behave as a unit. If you need more than one of them, enclose them in parentheses when you write formulas. You need to know their names, formulas, and charges. If you learn the ...
Ambergris was commonly ground into a powder and dissolved in dilute alcohol. Rarely used today due to trade restrictions, its unique musky character added a long-lasting bouquet to the scent of essential flower oils, but, more important, ambergris was a fixative that prevented fragrance from ...

It is a kind of flammable liquid which is colorless with strong smell being similar to the smell of the mixture of ethanol and acetone. It is soluble in water, alcohol, ether, benzene, chloroform and most organic solvents and is miscible with water, alcohol, ether and can form azeotrope ...
and few solid complex compounds have been isolated. The complexes are easily detected in solution and are referred to as charge-transfer complexes. Iodine, for example, is slightly soluble in water and gives a yellowish-brown solution. Brown solutions are also formed withalcohol,ether,ketones, and...
