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
Enantiomers are a pair of molecules that exist in two forms that are mirror images of one another but cannot be superimposed one upon the other

At equilibrium Nernst equation is given by, E0 = (2.303RT/nF) log10Keq Where, Keq = equilibrium constant and F= faradays constant, and gives a relation between standard electrode potential.
Fluorescence spectrometry is a fast, simple and inexpensive method to determine the concentration of an analyte in solution based on its fluorescent properties.
Calorific value is the amount of heat energy present in food or fuel and which is determined by the complete combustion of specified quantity at constant pressure and in normal conditions.
Pauli exclusion principle states that no two electrons present in a single atom will have an identical set or will have the same quantum numbers
Coagulation is a chemical process that is used in water treatment,a coagulant is added to remove the dispersed oils.
