Introduction Propane is nothing but a gas molecular entity that mainly acts as a propellant for food. Although it has no colour, consists of a faint petroleum-like odour. Two processes help in obtaining this gas and it is formed as a by-product of the processes petroleum refining and natural gas processing. Overview of propane Propane is also named as Propyl hydride, Dimethylmethane, and n-Propane. It has the chemical formula of C3H8 called three-carbon alkenes. It is a molecular entity of gas that acts like a food propellant. It was invented by Marcellin Berthelot, a French chemist in the year 1857. ... Read More

Introduction Base has three different types of definitions in the field of chemistry. All these definitions conclude same meaning of base. Base gives out electrons in solvent medium hence develop positive charge or excess proton in its molecular structure. Structure of bases The structure of bases is very unique to one another as these tend to make a proper compound for reduction of concentration of acids. Base gives out a pair of electron to the dilute solution of acid. The entire element starts to see a high concentration of acid start to transition over a phase which very diluted by ... Read More
