Carbon Compounds

This experiment demonstrates the reaction of calcium carbide with water. When calcium carbide is mixed with water, it produces acetylene gas. If the c...

This experiment demonstrates the formation of carbon compounds. It shows how carbon forms bonds with elements like hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, sulphur...

This experiment demonstrates combustion in carbon compounds. When a watch glass is held over a yellow sooty flame, black soot gets deposited due to in...

This experiment demonstrates the combustion of saturated hydrocarbons. When oxygen supply is limited, incomplete combustion occurs and a yellow, sooty...

This experiment demonstrates how soap helps remove oily dirt. Water removes water-soluble dirt easily, but oily dirt does not wash away. When detergen...

This experiment demonstrates fractional distillation, a method used to separate liquids with different boiling points. When the mixture is heated, the...

This experiment demonstrates the oxidation of ethanol to ethanoic acid by alkaline potassium permanganate, shown by the fading of the purple color unt...

This experiment demonstrates the reaction of calcium carbide with water, producing ethyne gas and calcium hydroxide, where the flammable ethyne burns ...

This experiment demonstrates the acidic nature and relative strength of acids by showing that both hydrochloric acid and ethanoic acid turn blue litmu...

This experiment demonstrates the reaction of ethanol with sodium, producing sodium ethoxide and hydrogen gas, which is confirmed by a pop sound and bl...

This experiment demonstrates the difference between soap and detergent by showing that detergent produces more foam in water, while soap forms less la...

This experiment demonstrates the emulsifying action of soap by showing that oil and water remain separate without soap, but mix to form a cloudy emuls...

This experiment demonstrates the different behavior of soap in pure and hard water by showing that soap produces more foam in pure water, while in har...

This experiment demonstrates simple distillation by heating water to form steam, which is then cooled and condensed back into liquid. During the proce...
