Standard addition is a method used in chemical analysis to determine the concentration of a substance in a complex sample. It involves adding a known amount of the substance to a portion of the sample and comparing the results to the original sample. This allows chemists to accurately assess the concentration of the substance of […]
Addition reactions involve two reactants forming a single product without any byproducts. They are made possible by the presence of double or triple bonds in one of the reactants. The Diels-Alder reaction is an important addition reaction that creates carbon rings in molecules. It was discovered by Kurt Alder and Otto Diels and earned them […]
