CHEMISTRY GLOSSARY
micelle → micele
Micelle is an electrically charged colloidal particle, usually organic in nature, composed of aggregates of large molecules, e.g., in soaps and surfactants. For aqueous solutions, the hydrophilic end of the molecule is on the surface of the micelle, while the hydrophobic end (often a hydrocarbon chain) points toward the centre.
microanalysis → mikroanaliza
Microanalysis is a sum of analytical procedures used for researching of very small quantities of matter (around 1 mg).
microchemistry → mikrokemija
Microchemistry is a branch of chemistry that concerns isolating, identifying and an analysis of very small quantities of sample (few mg). It uses delicate reactions, special equipment and microscopes.
microwave radiation → mikrovalna radijacija
Microwave radiation is a electromagnetic radiation with wavelength between 3 mm and 30 cm.
millimetre of mercury → milimetar živina stupca
Millimetre of mercury (mmHg) is a non-SI unit of pressure, equal to 133.322 Pa. The name is generally considered interchangeable with torr.
Millon’s reaction → Millonova reakcija
Millon’s reaction is used for testing proteins by the appearance of red colour which the proteins give by reacting with a solution of mercury in nitric acid.
mineral acid → mineralna kiselina
Mineral acid is an acid made from minerals by chemical reaction, e.g. hydrochloric acid is produced from sodium chloride and sulphuric acid is made from sulphur.
mineral oils → mineralna ulja
Mineral oils are oily liquids that are composed of hydrocarbons and are obtained as a product of petroleum, tar, coal, wood etc. distillation. They are used as lubricants.
