Natural Organic Soap

Introduction :
Soap is made by heating animal or vegetable oils with sodium hydroxide. Esters present in fats are broken down to glycerol and sodium salt of fatty acid.

Fat + Sodium hydroxide ------------> Soap + Glycerol

This reaction is called saponification.
Let us discuss the cleaning action of natural organic soap in detail:

Cleaning Action of Natural Organic Soap

The cleaning action of natural organic soap depends on its structure.
E.g. Sodium stearate consists of a long hydrocarbon chain which is hydrophobic (water-hating), attached to an ionic head, which is hydrophilic (water - loving). These molecules dissolve in water because of ionic end to the molecule.

When dissolved in water, the soap molecules lower the surface tension of the water, makiang it wet objects more easily. The molecules also interact with grease and dirt present in the cloth. The hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain is attracted to the grease and become embedded in it. The hydrophilic head of molecule points away from dirt and is attached to water molecule. When water is agitated, the grease is released from the cloth fibre or dish and is completely surrounded by soap molecules. Rinsing with fresh water removes this grease. The use of soap in hard water creates lots of problems because it forms scumbs with hard water. But nowadays synthetic detergents are available which do not scumb witrh hard water. Sodium alkylbenzene - sulphonates were developed in 1970s.

They have a similar long hydrocarbon chain to soap molecules, but the ionic group at hydriphilic head has been changed. The early synthetic detergent molecules were not biodegradable and cause pollution problems in rivers and streams.

Uses of Natural Organic Soap:

• Natural organic soap can be used to avoid or reduce many skin problems.
• Its ingredients have been produced without using fertilizers or pesticides, so it is not harmful to the skin.
• It leaves our our skin feeling clean and moisturised.
• Glycerine, which is a great moisturizer is retained by the natural organic soaps.
• Reduction in the use of toxins helps to create better living environment.
• Most of them are also free from animal fats, which prevents the killing of animals.

Organic chemistry spectroscopy

Introduction 
The study of the interaction between radiation and the matter is called spectroscopy. Molecules in an organic compound have the tendency to absorb specific frequencies according to their structural characteristics. These frequencies can be in the range of visible light, infrared or ultraviolet radiations.

Description of organic chemistry spectroscopy

The electrons in the molecules of an organic compound undergo transition when they absorb or emit light. This is the reason that the color perceived by the organic compounds depends on the absorption of light radiations in the visible range.

Infrared spectroscopy is very successful in organic chemistry.  The types of bonds present in a compound as well as their lattice arrangements can be found by the absorption of IR radiations when they emit thermal radiations. The frequency at which the absorption of the radiation takes place matches the frequency of the vibrating bond.

Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy analyzes the magnetic properties of certain atomic nuclei like hydrogen and carbon which determines their local environments in an organic compound through which the structure of the compound can be determined.

UV spectroscopy is used in highly conjugated organic compounds which absorb UV light or light in the visible regions. When electrons within the atoms are excited from one electronic state to another, their solutions show change in color based on changes in the wavelength due to absorption of visible light by the d electrons. Organic compounds with solvents may either have significant or weak UV absorptions because the pH value and polarity of the solvent do affect the absorption capability of the organic compound.

By passing a beam of IR light through a sample of organic compound the infrared spectrum of the sample can be recorded. On examining the light rays that are transmitted, we get to measure the quantity of energy absorbed at each wavelength. Absorption takes place when the IR frequency is equal to the frequency of the bond. Analysis of these absorption characteristics reveals details about the molecular structure of the sample.

Conclusion for organic chemistry spectroscopy

As complex molecular structures lead to more absorption bands which in turn develops more complex spectra, various types of spectroscopy techniques help in characterization of complex mixtures.

Electricity wind

Introduction

Electric power:- As we know Electric power or elctric current both are same, you have learnt that uncharged boby can be charged by connecting body with a metal wire. In the process of tranfer, charge flows through the wire in a fraction of a second. The flow of electric change constitues an electric currect. With electric power we can run anything like fans, ac , refrigerators, machines, computer almost all the mechanical things you can run by electric power. So electric power is very much important in our daily life.

We are using eletric power almost every second of our daily life and we cannot live without electric power. As we know electric power is not a renewable source of energy we need to produce it own your own. So we have wind energy which is renewable source of energy with the help of wind energy we can produce electric power. This picture show about electric power.

Electricity wind

Wind power :- With the help of wind power we can produce electric power as we know wind blows with the natural phenomenon and we need to source to blow fast wind. Because of different temperature on earht surface wind blows from one direction to another direction and we can utilize this wind energy in different purposes as we can set up a wind turbine and with wind power these turbines will rotate and it will produces mechanical energy and we can use this mechanical energy in any form we can use it by grinding grains , pumping water and most important we can produce electric power by wind energy, just by connecting wind trubines to electric generator we can convert mechanical energy to electrical power. Following figure shows you the image of wind turbine.

Advantages of electric wind power

    As is it renewable source of energy we can produces as much as electric power with the help of wind power just we need to fix wind turbine.
    This is very cheap source of energy and we can produce large amount of electric energy with the help of wind power.
    We can use electric energy produce by wind power in any form.

Static and Current Electricity

Introduction :

The two basic kind of electricity that exist in nature are:  the static electricity and the current electricity.Static electricity is nothing but the collection of uncontrolled electrons which are passing from one body to another body in a movement which is sudden or momentary. Whenever the motion of the electron along a path is a controlled motion then the electricity so produced in the system or circuit is the current electricity.

Examples of static and current electricity

The examples of static electricity:

    The clothes taken out from the dryer and they are stick together

    One can get a shock after walking on the carpet and then suddenly touching something.

The static electricity is generally a nuisance and the hazards of static electricity include the cause of fire. The example of static electricity in which it is produced by rubbing the balloon with the hairs.

Static electricity

Example of current electricity:

The path used in the case of the current electricity is generally a conductor of electricity like a copper wire which can move the electricity from the power plant to the households

Current electricity

Application of Static and Current Electricity

The current electricity is obtained in case when a plug is inserted in a socket, which is generally seen in our homes and this electricity is used to power up the systems like the stereo and the lights. The current electricity is the flow of billions of electrons through the circuit and this flow of electron make a wave of electron which has a voltage of about 120 V. The flow of the current electricity in a system can be taken as the pushing of the electrons through the system through a wire and on the wall on which the socket of electricity is located.

On the other hand, the static electricity occurs only when some of the electrons of a neutral material are moved from their present location to some other location and hence give rise to the electricity and the motion of electron is due to some unknown causes and this electricity is not generally observed. In case of the static electricity no new electron is involved to produce electricity only those electrons which are already there are undergoes some changes hence produces electricity.

A day without electricity

Introduction

A day without electricity is very difficult. Imagining a day without electricity thinking it will be very difficult

Imagine a day without electricity, not just a brief power outage. We all know how inconvenient that day becomes when our electricity is out for only a few hours. How hard it is to remember for that short period of time that the light switch will not produce instant light, the hair dryer will not immediately blow dry our hair, or that we can't even run water into our homes. Our homes and lives have become so dependent on electricity it is really hard to imagine everything that would change without it.

In details

Lifestyles in our own Ozark Mountain region have changed dramatically with the invention of electricity and its establishment into our everyday lives. Have you ever noticed a log cabin built at the very top of a high mountain where it would have a beautiful view? Probably not. Locations were chosen for homes because of accessibility to water, preferably a big spring. Having your home close to a spring meant having cold milk, a cool watermelon in the summer, and plenty of drinking water. Before electricity, a "spring box" would be constructed where the cool spring water would run into it and be deep enough to cover containers of milk, butter, etc. I'm convinced that a spring located close to your home was just about one of the biggest luxuries in those days. Remember, without electricity there were no electric cattle waterers. Drawing water from the well by hand to water a herd of cattle and horses would now seem an impossible task.

A day without electricity
Can we really imagine doing laundry without electricity? Carrying water from the spring, or drawing enough water from the hand-dug water well could prove to quite a day's chore. We really can't imagine the time and effort put into doing a mere "load of laundry" before our electric washers and dryers.

Periodic table alkali metals

Introduction :   

Elements belonging to group 1in periodic table are called alkali metals.  Their outer most electronic configuration is ns1 in periodic table.

Z        Element        No. of electrons

1         Hydrogen             1

3         Lithium                2, 1

11       Sodium               2, 8, 1

19       Potassium           2, 8, 8, 1

37       Rubidium            2, 8, 18, 8, 1

55      Caesium              2, 8, 18, 18, 8, 1

87      Francium             2, 8, 18, 32, 18, 8, 1

The group in a periodic table also includes hydrogen because of the similarity in the electronic configuration with these elements.  They are called alkali metals since they readily dissolve in water to form soluble hydroxides which are strongly alkaline in nature.  The word alkali has been derived from the Arabic word alquili, which means the ashes of plants from which certain compound of the elements sodium and potassium were initially isolated.  Sodium and potassium are abundant while the remaining elements occur only in traces.  The last element francium is radioactive and unstable. 

Alkali metals of periodic table:

They have maximum value of atomic radii, form monovalent  cations and possess the lowest ionization enthalpies  Their hydration enthalpies are low due to their large size. They have low electro negativities and all the members are strongly electro positive.They possess +1 oxidation state, and have low melting and boiling points. They are very light and impart characteristic colors to the flame.They exhibit photoelectric effect. 

They are highly reactive chemically because of their low ionization enthalpies and enthalpy of atomization. They are normally kept in chemically inert solvents such as kerosene.  They form oxide when they combine with oxygen and hydroxide when they react with water.The reaction with water is highly exothermic.So, alkali metals are not kept in contact with water.All alkali metals combine with hydrogen upon heating to form colorless crystalline hydrides that are ionic in nature.They combine with halogens directly to form metal halides. The alkali metals are powerful reducing agents.They are soluble in liquefied ammonia.They react with sulphur and prosperous upon heating to form the corresponding sulphides and phosphides.  

Hydrogen atom consists

Introduction

A hydrogen atom consists of an atom of the chemical element hydrogen. It is an electrically neutral atom which contains a single positively-charged proton and a single negatively-charged electron and they are bound to the nucleus by the Coulomb force. Hydrogen-1, protium, or light hydrogen is the most abundant isotope and it contains no neutrons. There are other isotopes of hydrogen, such as deuterium which contains one or more neutrons.

Niels Bohr in the year 1914 got hold of the spectral frequencies of the hydrogen atom subsequent to making a number of straightforward assumptions. The assumptions were not fully right but they gave up the proper energy answers.

Schrödinger equation and Hydrogen atom

The confirmation of the Bohr's results for the frequencies and underlying energy values were done using Schrödinger equation between the years 1925-1926. The clarification to the Schrödinger equation for hydrogen is systematic. This equation can be used to find out energy levels and thus the hydrogen spectral lines frequencies can be measured. The explanation of the Schrödinger equation goes much advance than the Bohr model nevertheless, for the reason that it also gives way to the shape of the electron's wave function ("orbital") for the various possible quantum-mechanical states, thus clearing up the anisotropic character of atomic bonds. This equation for the hydrogen atom is based on the fact that the coloumb potential which is produced by the nucleus is isotropic in nature. It is radially symmetrical in space and depends on the distance to the nucleus. The resulting eigen energy functions are not isotropic themselves.

Hydrogen ion

In ordinary chemistry, hydrogen is not found without its electron at room temperatures and pressure. Ionized hydrogen is written as "H⁺". Ionized hydrogen in case of the salvation of classical acids like hydrochloric acids forms hydronium ion. Hydronium ion is written as H₃O⁺. This refers to the entire hydronium ion and to a single ionized hydrogen atom. In this type of case, the proton is transferred by acid from water to the hydronium ion. This type of ionized hydrogen without their electron or free protons is commonly observed in the solar wind and interstellar medium
