Electrolysis or Electrolysis process that separates the elements of a compound by means of electricity. Certain substances ( acids , hydroxides, salts and some dissolved or molten metal oxides ) are conductors of electricity at the same time that they decompose by the passage of electric current, these substances are called electrolytes. Such a phenomenon is called electrolysis and it fundamentally constitutes an oxidation-reduction … Read more

Science often deals with concepts that are difficult to understand, more or less abstract concepts for which not everyone is gifted to understand. The truth is that this is a mere excuse, it is not only necessary to know the concept and know how to explain it, that is what is truly difficult. In this article dedicated … Read more

Disadvantages of biomass.To maximize the advantages and reduce the impact of the disadvantages of biomass, it is essential that there is a correct management of organic waste. This work contributes to prolonging the life of sanitary landfills and giving the waste an environmentally correct destination. The management of organic waste is nothing more than the … Read more

Advantages of biomass.The biomass energy is present and future. This type of energy comes from taking advantage of organic matter (substances generated by living beings, animals or waste). It has been growing gradually in Spain and is already a powerful source of energy . The main use that is given to biomass is the generation of heat, especially in industrial processes, … Read more

The alkanes are a class of hydrocarbons in which a variable number of carbon atoms are linked together by single bonds, as a skeleton, and each carbon atom binds in turn to hydrogen atoms, which may optionally be substituted by other atoms or functional groups. For example: chloroform, methane, octane. The molecular formula of open straight chain alkanes is CnH2n + 2 , where C represents carbon, … Read more
