Generic Elective Physics - Paper I

  Notes on  Physics Generic Elective - Paper I As per the University Grant Commission, and CBCS pattern of BSc, any eligible honours students such as chemistry, mathematics, computer science etc. can opt for a generic elective physics with the Hons papers. In many of the universities, this paper consists of internal (mid sem), practical and end sem examinations, in a 15 + 25 + 60 = 100 total mark pattern, in general. Here in this post you can find complete notes of GE Physics I as PDF by Clicking on the corresponding link provided at the end of short questions discussion on the topic below.  Download the pdf file of  Thermal Physics Notes . Before getting the pdf file of thermal physics notes, read these important 1 mark questions and answer on thermal physics: Important Short Questions of Thernal Physics: Question 1: Define thermal equilibrium.  Answer: Thermal equilibrium is a state in which two or more objects have the same temperature and there is no net flow of heat between th

Nobel Prize in Chemistry : Some unknown facts

 Nobel Prize in Chemistry: Some unknown facts A s we delve into the realm of scientific excellence and exploration, one of the most esteemed honors in the world of chemistry awaits its annual revelation: the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Since its inception in 1901, this prestigious award has recognized outstanding contributions to the field of chemistry, marking monumental breakthroughs that have revolutionized our understanding of the world and improved the quality of our lives. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:David.Monniaux, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Nobel_medal.png#Licensing The Nobel Prize in Chemistry is one of the six Nobel Prizes established by the will of Alfred Nobel, the inventor of dynamite and a man deeply committed to fostering knowledge and innovation. Each year, it is awarded to individuals or teams who have made groundbreaking discoveries in the realm of chemistry, spanning a wide array of disciplines from organic chemistry to materials science. This year in

Notes on Chemical Bonding for BSc Honours and Generic elective

Notes on Chemical Bonding Chemical bonding is a fundamental concept in chemistry that explains how atoms combine to form molecules and compounds. There are several types of chemical bonds, each with its own characteristics and properties. > Types of Chemical Bonds: Ionic Bonds: An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond that forms between two atoms with significantly different electronegativities. It is formed considerably between metals and nonmetals. Such bonds are formed when one or more electrons are transferred from one atom to the other. Examples: Common examples of compounds held together by ionic bonds include sodium chloride (table salt), potassium chloride (used in some salt substitutes), calcium carbonate (found in chalk and shells), and magnesium oxide. The figure below explains how sodium ion looses one electron which is accepted by chlorine atom. Thus sodium becomes a cation and chlorine becomes an anion. An electrostatic force of attraction between these two
