Calcination is a very simple chemical process, where the solid material or the substance is heated in a controlled environment, in the process the temperature is also regulated

the particles that have a dimension with respect to their external, internal and surface structure and lie in the range of 1nm to 100nm are called as Nanoparticles

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.

this type of isomerism occurs by arrangements of atoms or the functional groups that belong to atoms that are not similar in nature.

Smelting, is a process in metallurgy, where the metal obtained from its ore by heating beyond its melting point, in the presence of oxidizing agents,

Electron affinity is the amount of energy required to detach one electron from a negatively charged ion of an atom or molecule

Colloids are mixtures of dispersed insoluble particles of one substance that are microscopic in nature, and are suspended in another substance.

The sample path length and concentration of the sample are directly proportional to the absorbance of the light.

Fullerene is a form of carbon, it is a molecule that is largely spheroidal in shape.

Polyvinyl chloride is produced from the main component. It is white, brittle solid material available in powder form or granules.

It is a theoretical model which details the molecular composition of the gas in terms of a huge number of sub microscopic particles that contain both atoms and molecules.

It is a process that involves the protection of steel and iron from exposure to the atmosphere leading to rusting

The Aufbau principle highlights the way in which the electrons are filled in the atomic orbitals of an atom in its ground state

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

These are those polymers which decompose under aerobic or anaerobic conditions, as a result of the action of microorganism/enzymes.

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.

Saponification is the hydrolysis of an ester with NaOH or KOH to give alcohol and sodium or potassium salt of the acid.
