Carnot Engine

The Carnot Engine is a theoretical notion that helps us to understand the limits of how efficiently heat may be transformed into work. It was developed by a French scientist named Sadi Carnot in 1824. The Carnot engine establishes an ideal standard for all heat engines, i.e., the most efficiency that any engine may attain … Read more

Isomerism in Coordination Compounds

Isomerism is an interesting idea where molecules with the same chemical formula differ in their atom arrangement or structure. This idea also holds true for coordination compounds, which are complex molecules with ligands surrounding a core metal atom or ion. In order to understand why compounds with the same formula can have varied characteristics, reactivities, … Read more

Reversible and Irreversible Processes

The ideas of reversible and irreversible processes in thermodynamics aid in our comprehension, of how systems transition between states and the interactions that occur between energy. What is a Process in Thermodynamics? In thermodynamics, each transition a system goes through from one beginning state to another is called as a process. These modifications may require … Read more

Nomenclature of Coordination Compounds

Nomenclature is vital in chemistry to know the systematically named of the compounds so they may be readily identified and studied. To maintain consistency around the globe, the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) established guidelines for the nomenclature of coordination compounds. Coordinate bonds are used to join a central metal atom or … Read more

Refrigerators and Heat Pumps

We may not be aware that the fundamental idea behind both refrigerators and heat pumps is the same: heat is transferred from one location to another. They use comparable scientific ideas, although having different goals. What is a Refrigerator? One classic home equipment that keeps our food and beverages cold is a refrigerator. The refrigerator … Read more

MCQs on Current Electricity class

Which of the following factors affects the resistance of a conductor? (A) Length of the conductor(B) Cross-sectional area of the conductor(C) Temperature of the conductor(D) All of the above Answer: (D) All of the above Explanation: Resistance (R) is given by the formula: R = ρ L / A​ Where: L = Length of the … Read more

Werner’s Theory of Coordination Compounds

In 1893, Swiss chemist Alfred Werner put up a novel theory to describe the bonding and structure of coordination molecules. He received the 1913 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his groundbreaking breakthrough. Prior to Werner’s research, scientists struggled to understand how metal ions formed complex compounds by bonding with other molecules. His idea established the … Read more

Heat Engines

The interesting device known as a heat engine holds the solution. Much of the modern world is silently powered by heat engines, which are ubiquitous. However, what are they and how do they operate? Engine What is a Heat Engine? Heat engine is device in which a system is made to undergo a cyclic process … Read more

Mcq on electrostatics class 12 chapter 1

1.Coulomb’s law is applicable for which type of charges? (A) Moving charges(B) Stationary charges(C) Both moving and stationary charges(D) None of these Answer: (B) Stationary charges Explanation: Coulomb’s law gives the force between two point charges that are stationary. It states that the electrostatic force between two charges is directly proportional to the product of … Read more

Thermodynamic Processes

When a thermodynamic system transits from one state to another, it goes through a number of changes, which are called as thermodynamic processes. Variables are pressure, volume, temperature, and internal energy are frequently altered during these operations. In physics, engineering, and chemistry, thermodynamic processes are vital because they help us to understand how energy is … Read more
