Inorganic Chemicals

1. Sulfuric Acid (H₂SO₄):

Sulfuric acid is a highly corrosive and strong mineral acid. It is a colorless, oily liquid that is soluble in water. It is one of the most important industrial chemicals, with a wide range of applications.

Properties of Sulfuric Acid:

Oxidizing Agent: In concentrated form, sulfuric acid can act as an oxidizing agent, reacting with metals and other substances to release oxygen.

Strong Acid: Sulfuric acid is a diprotic acid, meaning it can donate two hydrogen ions (H+) per molecule. It is a strong acid, meaning it readily ionizes in aqueous solutions.

Dehydrating Agent: Sulfuric acid is a powerful dehydrating agent. It can remove water from other substances, such as sugars and alcohols.

2. Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH)

Sodium hydroxide, commonly known as caustic soda or lye, is a strong base. It is a white, crystalline solid that is highly soluble in water. Sodium hydroxide is a widely used industrial chemical with numerous applications.

Properties of Sodium Hydroxide:

Alkaline: Sodium hydroxide solutions have a high pH, making them strongly alkaline.

Strong Base: Sodium hydroxide is a strong base, meaning it readily dissociates in water to produce hydroxide ions (OH-).

Corrosive: It is a highly corrosive substance and can cause severe burns if it comes into contact with the skin or eyes.

3. Ammonia (NH₃)

Ammonia is a colorless, pungent gas composed of nitrogen and hydrogen atoms. It is a highly reactive and important industrial chemical with numerous applications.

Properties of Ammonia:

Flammable: Ammonia gas is flammable in air.

Alkaline: Ammonia is a weak base, meaning it can accept a proton (H+) in aqueous solutions.

Pungent Odor: It has a strong, characteristic odor that is often described as “fishy.”

Highly Soluble: Ammonia is highly soluble in water.

4. Phosphoric Acid (H₃PO₄)

Phosphoric acid is a colorless, odorless, and syrupy liquid. It is a weak, triprotic acid, meaning it can donate three hydrogen ions (H+) per molecule. Phosphoric acid is a widely used industrial chemical with numerous applications.

Properties of Phosphoric Acid:

Buffering Agent: Phosphoric acid and its salts can act as buffering agents, helping to maintain a stable pH in solutions.

Weak Acid: Phosphoric acid is a weak acid compared to strong acids like sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid.

Dehydrating Agent: It can act as a dehydrating agent, removing water from other substances.

Organic Chemicals

1.Benzene (C₆H₆)

Benzene is a colorless, volatile liquid with a distinctive odor. It is a simple aromatic hydrocarbon composed of six carbon atoms arranged in a ring, each bonded to a hydrogen atom. Benzene is a highly flammable and toxic substance.

Properties of Benzene:

Solvent: Benzene is a good solvent for many organic compounds.

Aromatic: Benzene has a unique aromatic character due to the delocalization of electrons in its ring structure.

Flammable: Benzene is highly flammable and can form explosive mixtures with air.

Toxic: Benzene is a toxic substance that can cause serious health problems, including cancer, if inhaled or ingested.

2.Toluene (C₆H₅CH₃)

Toluene is a colorless, volatile liquid with a strong odor. It is a methylated derivative of benzene, meaning it has a methyl group (CH₃) attached to one of the carbon atoms in the benzene ring. Toluene is a widely used industrial chemical.

Properties of Toluene:

Solvent: Toluene is a good solvent for many organic compounds.

Aromatic: Toluene is an aromatic hydrocarbon, similar to benzene.

Flammable: Toluene is highly flammable and can form explosive mixtures with air.

Toxic: Toluene is a toxic substance that can cause serious health problems if inhaled or ingested.

3.Methanol (CH₃OH)

Methanol, also known as wood alcohol, is the simplest alcohol. It is a colorless, volatile liquid with a pungent odor. Methanol is a widely used industrial chemical.

Properties of Methanol:

Solvent: Methanol is a good solvent for many organic compounds.

Alcohol: Methanol is a primary alcohol, meaning the hydroxyl group (-OH) is attached to a primary carbon atom.

Flammable: Methanol is highly flammable and can form explosive mixtures with air.

Toxic: Methanol is a toxic substance that can cause blindness and even death if ingested.
