Electrochemistry is an important topic in JEE (Main+Advance) chemistry syllabus. It deals with the study of chemical reactions that involve the transfer of electrons. It is also an important area of study in the field of materials science, biochemistry, and environmental science. Some of the important topics in electrochemistry that are covered in JEE (Main+Advance)…
Fission and fusion are two types of nuclear processes that involve the splitting and merging of atomic nuclei. Fission is a process in which the nucleus of a heavy atom, such as uranium or plutonium, is split into two smaller nuclei. This process releases a large amount of energy in the form of heat and…
Heat conduction in one dimension is a process by which heat is transferred through a material in one direction only. The rate at which heat is conducted through the material is determined by the temperature gradient along the direction of heat flow, the thermal conductivity of the material, and the cross-sectional area perpendicular to the…
The motion of planets can be explained by Kepler’s laws of planetary motion, which were derived by the German astronomer Johannes Kepler in the early 17th century based on observations made by the Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe. Kepler’s first law states that the orbit of a planet is an ellipse with the sun at one…
Damped oscillation refers to the behavior of a system that undergoes oscillation (i.e., periodic motion) but with the amplitude of the oscillation decreasing over time due to the presence of damping. In one dimension, a simple example of a damped oscillation is a mass-spring system with damping, where a mass is attached to a spring…
The center of mass (also known as the center of gravity) is a point in an object or a system of objects where the mass of the system is concentrated. It is the average position of all the parts of the system, weighted according to their respective masses. The center of mass is an important…
In physics, a frame of reference is a coordinate system used to describe the position and motion of objects in space. When an observer is in a state of constant motion with respect to another observer, they are said to be in different frames of reference. A uniformly accelerated frame of reference is a frame…
Reduction is a chemical reaction that involves the gain of electrons, which results in a decrease in the oxidation state of an atom or molecule. Biomolecules such as carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins can undergo reduction reactions. Carbohydrates can undergo reduction to form sugar alcohols, which have important industrial applications. For example, glucose can be reduced…
Carboxylic acids are a group of organic compounds that contain a carboxyl functional group (-COOH) attached to a hydrocarbon chain. They are characterized by several physical properties, including: What is Required Carboxylic Acids Physical properties The physical properties of carboxylic acids that are required or necessary depend on the specific application or use of the…
Metal acetylides are a class of inorganic compounds that consist of a metal atom or ion bound to one or more acetylide ligands. Acetylides are compounds containing the -C≡C^- anion, also known as the ethynide anion. Metal acetylides can be prepared by reacting a metal salt with an acetylene source, such as acetylene gas or…
