Introduction The no. of protons presents in the nucleus of every element's atom, denoted by the letter Z, is the element's atomic number. Using only an atom's atomic number, an element can be identified as an atom. Any atom with the atomic number 8 represents an đť‘‚ (Oxygen) atom, and ... Read More

Introduction The Scottish chemist Thomas Graham first put forward the systematic study of diffusion of gas molecules. He made his contributions to diffusion in the year 1828 to 1833. He observed that when different gases are brought together there is a spreading of gases instead of their arrangement in the ... Read More

Introduction Various scientists are making several attempts to measure the size of atoms. But Avogadro's hypothesis gives an important explanation for it. Avogadro's hypothesis was accepted after two years of Avogadro's death. It was accepted when Italian chemist Stanislao Cannizzaro was able to explain chemical exceptions to Avogadro's hypothesis. He ... Read More

Introduction In thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, we often study gas molecules inside a container. In such a case, it is impossible to study each molecule separately. Indeed, even in a single mL of gas, there are almost an uncountable number of gas molecules. Thus, instead of working with individual molecules, ... Read More
