The lanthanide sequence contains elements 58 to 71 that eventually fill their 4f sub-level. The actinides are elements 89 to 103 and gradually... View Article
There are two kinds of forces, combat forces, and non-contact forces, essentially. Other examples of force are gravity forces, electric forces,... View Article
The purest source of water is called rain water. During vaporisation by the sun, impurities and salts found in water on earth are left behind.... View Article
The strain unit is dimensionless. It is the ratio between the length shift and the initial length, so it is unitless. Strain is the ratio of the... View Article
As electrons are moved from atoms of one element to atoms of another element, electrovalent bonds are formed, creating positive and negative... View Article
The electromeric effect is a transient effect, and the molecule returns to its original location as long as the attacking reagent is active, as... View Article
If a light beam travels through a colloid, the Tyndall effect is the scattering of light. The particles of the individual suspension disperse and... View Article
Velocity of the body changes continuously in uniform circular motion. It is continually shifting its direction when an object travels around a... View Article
A shell is formed by orbitals which have the same value as the principal quantum number n. Inside a shell, orbitals are broken into subshells of... View Article
In most organic compounds, typically, all bonds between atoms contain one sigma bond each. If it is a single bond, so only the sigma bond is... View Article
Respiration is another exothermic reaction and energy is released by this reaction. Heat, though is typically transmitted as heat energy, so... View Article
The revolving motion entails the actual rotation of a certain object that spins on its own axis. It implies that the direction in which the... View Article
Light energy is a type of kinetic energy with the power to allow human eyes see forms of light. Light is characterized by hot objects such as... View Article
The elastic limit is defined as the maximal stress before the permanent deformation that a material can endure. The material returns back to its... View Article
The distinction between a solution and a solvent is an important contrast between molarity and molarity. Molarity is the ratio of a solvent's... View Article
Radiation is the quickest heat transfer mode, although the slowest heat transfer mode is conduction. The effect of differential heating is... View Article
D-block elements are found in the periodic table in groups 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12; d-block elements are also referred to as... View Article
When it is pulled close, tensional forces are generated in a string or cable. The powers of friction will only tug on something. In physics,... View Article
A photon is a packet of energy and it is a basic unit of light. Photon is invisible to the eyes, however on a sheet of paper it is represented as... View Article
