Difference Between Covalent, Metallic and Ionic Bonds

July 25, 2018 by Rachna C 3 Comments

featured_img_covalent_ionic_bond

Covalent bond occurs between the two non-metals, metallic bond occurs between two metals and the ionic bond occurs between the metal and the non-metal. Covalent bond involves the sharing of electrons, while metallic bonds have strong attractions and ionic bonds involve the transferring and accepting of electrons from the valence shell. The adhering property of an atom, in … [Read more...] about Difference Between Covalent, Metallic and Ionic Bonds

Difference Between Cation and Anion

April 11, 2018 by Rachna C Leave a Comment

cation vs anions

We can divide the ions into two categories: cation and anion, based on the charge they bear. However, they both get generated from a neutral atom. The cations consist of more positively charged protons than that of negative electrons. And due to this extra positivity, they have a positive charge. In contrast, the anions are negatively charged as they possess more electrons … [Read more...] about Difference Between Cation and Anion

Difference Between Active and Passive Transport

March 23, 2018 by Rachna C 5 Comments

Active_Vs_passive_transport_content_img

Active transport uses energy (ATP) for the moving the molecules in and out of the cellular membranes and therefore remain active, while in passive transport the molecules do not use energy for their movements and so the name is given as passive. We all know that cell is the basic unit of life. It is responsible for all the activities that occur inside our body. But some … [Read more...] about Difference Between Active and Passive Transport

Difference Between Introns and Exons

March 17, 2018 by Rachna C 2 Comments

Introns_Vs_Exons_featured_jpg

Introns or the intervening sequence are considered as the non-coding part of the genes, while the exons or the expressed sequence are known to be as the coding part for proteins of the genes. Introns are the common attribute found in the genes of the multicellular eukaryotes like humans, while exons are found in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The traditional method for the … [Read more...] about Difference Between Introns and Exons

Difference Between Absorption and Adsorption

March 13, 2018 by Rachna C 1 Comment

Absorption_Vs_Adsorption_content_img

People frequently get confused between absorption and adsorption as they spell similar. But the mechanism by which two substances interact with each other clearly differentiates these two physio-chemical processes. On one hand, absorption refers to the distribution of one substance throughout the area of the second substance. In contrast, adsorption refers to the adhesion of … [Read more...] about Difference Between Absorption and Adsorption
