  2. Color of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_of_water

    Pure water tends to look cyan in color and a sample can be compared to pure water with a predetermined color standard or comparing the results of a spectrophotometer. [ 13 ] Testing for color can be a quick and easy test which often reflects the amount of organic material in the water, although certain inorganic components like iron or ...

  3. Golden rain demonstration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_rain_demonstration

    The golden rain chemical reaction demonstrates the formation of a solid precipitate. The golden rain experiment involves two soluble ionic compounds, potassium iodide (KI) and lead(II) nitrate (Pb(NO 3) 2). They are initially dissolved in separate water solutions, which are each colorless.

  4. Sodium silicate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_silicate

    The commercial product, available in water solution or in solid form, is often greenish or blue owing to the presence of iron-containing impurities. In industry, the various grades of sodium silicate are characterized by their SiO 2:Na 2 O weight ratio (which can be converted to molar ratio by multiplication with 1.032).

  5. Precipitation (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precipitation_(chemistry)

    [1] [2] The solid formed is called the precipitate. [3] In case of an inorganic chemical reaction leading to precipitation, the chemical reagent causing the solid to form is called the precipitant. [4] The clear liquid remaining above the precipitated or the centrifuged solid phase is also called the supernate or supernatant.

  6. Water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water

    Water is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula H 2 O.It is a transparent, tasteless, odorless, [c] and nearly colorless chemical substance.It is the main constituent of Earth's hydrosphere and the fluids of all known living organisms (in which it acts as a solvent [20]).

  7. List of states of matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_states_of_matter

    Crystalline solid: A solid in which atoms, molecules, or ions are packed in regular order. Quasicrystal: A solid in which the positions of the atoms have long-range order, but this is not in a repeating pattern. Different structural phases of polymorphic materials are considered to be different states of matter in the Landau theory.

  8. Bisphenol A - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisphenol_A

    It is a colourless solid which is soluble in most common organic solvents, but has very poor solubility in water. [2] [7] BPA is produced on an industrial scale by the condensation reaction of phenol and acetone. Global production in 2022 was estimated to be in the region of 10 million tonnes. [8]

  9. Solid-state chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_chemistry

    Solid-state chemistry, also sometimes referred as materials chemistry, is the study of the synthesis, structure, and properties of solid phase materials.It therefore has a strong overlap with solid-state physics, mineralogy, crystallography, ceramics, metallurgy, thermodynamics, materials science and electronics with a focus on the synthesis of novel materials and their characterization.
