The process of production of food with the help of sunlight, water and air by the …
free energy refers to the amount of internal energy in a thermodynamic system that is available to do work. There are different forms of thermodynamic free energy
Petroleum Refining is defined as the industrial process of production of useful petroleum products from crude oil. The crude oil in its raw form is a dark and sticky liquid which is not useful. To get the usable products from the crude oil, it needs to be refined.
These are those polymers which decompose under aerobic or anaerobic conditions, as a result of the action of microorganism/enzymes.
Crystal field theory established in 1929 explains the interaction of the metal ion and the ligand as a pure electrostatic reaction
Polyvinyl chloride is produced from the main component. It is white, brittle solid material available in powder form or granules.
Chirality is an important property of asymmetry in many branches of science. A chiral molecule or ion exists in two stereoisomers that are mirror images of each other, called enantiomers
Optical activity is the ability of a chiral molecule to rotate the plane of plane-polarised light.some organic compounds cause the rotation of polarized light
The algebraic sum of ALL the currents entering and leaving a node must be equal to zero, the algebraic sum of all voltages within the loop must be equal to zero
The word “entropy” is derived from the Greek word, which means “turning”. It was derived to provide a quantitative measure for the spontaneous changes
The property of the surface of a liquid that allows it to resist an external force, due to the cohesive nature of its molecules
Polyvinyl chloride is produced from the main component. It is white, brittle solid material available in powder form or granules.
Hybridization is process, where the atomic orbitals having different shape and energy inter mingle together to form a set of similar orbitals
A substance that has the ability to increase the rate of a chemical reaction without it being changed or altered by the reacting chemicals or being consumed by the is called a catalyst.
this type of isomerism occurs by arrangements of atoms or the functional groups that belong to atoms that are not similar in nature.

Li-ion batteries are able to be recharged hundreds of times and are more stable
