dear friends ,
i am a high school student..
i and my friend are supposed to do an investigatory project on chemistry.
our topic is on food adulteration..
we finished the experiment on adulteration of milk.
we are supposed to present 10 - 12 pages of relevant information on food adulteration.
i have surfed enough through the net ( i guess ) for these information, but i haven't got any satisfactory results.

it wud be kind of u to help me on this issue. please. if u can advise me with some web pages or other sources .

thank u

Chemistry news on Phys.org
useful website for searching

Hello,

If your local library has a subscription, there is a vast amount of scientific articles on the Internet. For example, please go to http://www.sciencedirect.com to see whether you can find any valuable information. Use the "quick search" option and give all of the keywords with spaces between them.

It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...
I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
