The key difference between trichlor and dichlor is that the Trichlor (or trichloro-s-triazinetrione) is a dry solid compound having the highest possible chlorine content (around 90%) whereas, the Dichlor (or dichloro-s-triazinetrione) is available as its dihydrate form or the anhydrous form. The chlorine content of the dihydrate form of the dichlor is around 56% while the […]
Difference Between Life Cycle of Butterfly and Cockroach
The key difference between life cycle of butterfly and cockroach is that the life cycle of butterfly consists of four stages; that are the egg, pupa, larva and adult, while the life cycle of cockroach consists of three stages; that are the egg, nymph, and adult. Different species show different life cycles. The stages of […]
Difference Between Nucleophilic and Electrophilic Addition
The key difference between nucleophilic and electrophilic addition is that, in nucleophilic addition reactions, an electron-rich component combines with a molecule whereas, in electrophilic addition reactions, either an electron-deficient species or a neutral compound with empty orbitals combines with a molecule. A nucleophile is an electron-rich chemical species that can donate an electron pair to […]
Difference Between Chelate and Macrocyclic Ligands
The key difference between chelate and macrocyclic ligands is that a chelate is a compound containing a central metal atom bonded to a ligand having at least two or more donor sites whereas a macrocyclic ligand is a large cyclic structure having three or more donor sites. A ligand is a molecule or an ion […]
Difference Between Double and Triple Pressed Stearic Acid
The key difference between double and triple pressed stearic acid is that the triple pressed stearic acid is more refined than the double pressed stearic acid. Stearic acid is a saturated fatty acid. It is a solid waxy compound. The chemical formula of this compound is C17H35CO2H. Further, the esters and salts of stearic acid […]
Difference Between Bromine and Iodine
The key difference between bromine and iodine is that bromine is in the liquid state at room temperature whereas iodine is in the solid state. Bromine and iodine are elements in the halide group or the group 17 of the periodic table. Therefore, both these elements have 7 electrons in their outermost electron shell. CONTENTS […]
Difference Between Tartaric Acid and Citric Acid
The key difference between tartaric acid and citric acid is that the tartaric acid (cream of tartar, C4H6O6) is diprotic whereas the citric acid (C6H8O7) is triprotic. Tartaric acid is commercially available as a white powder and has a very poor water solubility while citric acid is an odorless compound and is available as a […]
Difference Between Ether and Ketone
The key difference between ether and ketone is that an ether contains two alkyl groups bonded to the same oxygen atom whereas a ketone contains an oxygen atom bonded to a carbon atom via a double bond. Ethers and ketones are organic compounds. Both these compounds have C,H and O atoms in their molecular structure. […]
Difference Between Donor and Acceptor Impurities
The key difference between donor and acceptor impurities is that the elements in group V of the periodic table typically act as donor impurities whereas elements in group III typically act as acceptor impurities. Doping is the process that adds impurities to a semiconductor. Doping is important in increasing the conductivity of the semiconductor. There […]
Difference Between Formic Acid and Acetic Acid
The key difference between formic acid and acetic acid is that formic acid (or methanoic acid, HCOOH) contains a carboxylic acid group attached to a hydrogen atom whereas acetic acid (or ethanoic acid, CH3COOH) has a methyl group attached to a carboxylic acid. Both formic acid and acetic acid are simple carboxylic acids. However, formic […]
