BEING UPDATED...



                        Hi everyoneπŸ˜„, Welcome back after a long vacation guys!!!

      I'm specially adding this post to our blog as I wished to share this update with you all. This will not affect your studies right now but will surely keep you updated with this piece of information that I'm going to share.
   
         All of us know about the periodic table, the base of chemistry. We all know it has 7columns and 18 rows. Speaking about the column, we knew that it was an incomplete column. Yup, I know some of you might have guessed it; I'm talking about, "The undiscovered elements." They have been discovered.



            In this chart of periodic table the last i.e the 7th column describes the names of some elements as (Uut) i.e Ununtrium, (Uup) i.e Ununpentium, (Uus) i.e Ununseptium, (Uuo) i.e Ununoctium.


Now in this updated version of periodic table you can see the names of those discovered elements.
(Nh) is Nihonium, (Mc) is Moscovium, (Ts) is Tennessine and (Og) is Oganesson.



In December 2015, these elements were recognized by IUPAC( International Union of Pure And Applied Chemistry) and IUPAP(International union of Pure And Applied Physics) and gave priority to the Russian-American team who had discovered them before. 
On 28th November 2016, these elements were officially named and given were symbols by  the IUPAC and IUPAP.

I shared this with you all as a piece of information. Might not help now but surely later. 
One thing which will be helpful for you all is about Oganesson, some of us being curious about it surely might have thought that, Oganesson being placed in the last row of Noble elements does it  exibit the same properties? 

Well, speaking about that, although Oganesson belongs to the 18th group it is the first synthetic element which may be significantly reactive unlike to the other elements of that group.

Also it is one of the two elements which were named after the scientists which are alive.πŸ˜€πŸ˜€
Oganesson is named after Yuri Oganessian. The other one is seaborgium. Named after Glenn T.Seaborg.

SCIENCE BUZZ !πŸ˜‰


                       SCIENCE AND YOU

   By now you might have finished first lesson. So this post of mine will include a reminder tip for “SCHOOL OF ELEMENTS” and the remaining post will be regarding “ACID AND BASE CHEMISTRY”
              

SCHOOL OF ELEMENTS

   Take a printout of the periodic table. I have posted this one for you it is from www.thinglink.com. 
   

And this one is from sciencenotes.org.


You may choose another from net.
Now what to do: all you have to do is mark each and every thing on this periodic table. FOR instance the different blocks the metalloids, alkaline earth metals, halogens, noble elements etc. Don’t forget a single thing!! After you’re done with this stick this periodic table on a wall that you see every day. This will help you remember each and every part of the periodic table. Trust me it really works as I told you before board does not force you to use textual language for science. SO IF YOU HAVE KNOWLEDGE THEN YOU JUST HAVE TO IMPLEMENT IT.
           I approached this lesson in the same way and thus shared with you all.

               

ACID AND BASE CHEMISTRY

SCIENCE IS A SUBJECT WHERE EACH CHAPTER INVOLVED IN THE

 SYLLABUS  IS A SUBJECT

 IN ITSELF, IT’S VAST; YOU CANNOT FOLLOW A PARTICULAR 

PATTERN TO STUDY ALL THE 
CHAPTERS. EACH CHAPTER IS DIFFERENT AND SO IS THE PATTERN!!

        So, speaking about acid and base chemistry its foundation is elements, their configuration and indicators. There are many awesome concepts regarding acid base chemistry. You can understand these concepts really well if you know the element and configuration as I said. You can read about indicators in your textbook I’m just mentioning about the ones that are not mentioned in our text.
               
INDICATORS:

There’s a small paragraph mentioned in our text book regarding olfactory indicators. They have not mentioned the types but sometimes questions are asked regarding it.
ONION, GARLIC and VANILLA are some of the olfactory indicators these indicators basically change their odour in acidic or basic conditions.
NOTE: Understand the portion regarding litmus indicator perfectly it plays a major role regarding application part.

When you will study carbon and carbon compounds you will understand how important element carbon is. This is not new to the ones who have appeared Homi Bhabha Examination. The next important element is hydrogen its name is derived from the Greek word “Hydro”. I know you guys can surf around and get this information I’m just trying to save your time. I had read this before.
COMPREHEND THE PART REGARDING HOW TO FORM A CHEMICAL EQUATION WELL.

 It’s really important for approaching chemistry, your implementation part etc. Read carefully I’m not telling you to mug up that part. The least questions are asked regarding the steps of forming an equation but comprehending this will surely help you to appear concept based questions.

SALTS:

You need to be perfect with each and every salt as questions are frequently asked regarding them. Understand (NaCl) Sodium Chloride perfectly this portion will surely help you while studying Metals and Non-metals.
I’m sharing this with you because this worked for me. When you keep this in mind and then study you don’t have to take much efforts when studying further lessons. You actually know something more before you study those lessons. Biology, Physics, Chemistry are not different parts they are interrelated you just need to understand that.
So keep reading!! And keep commenting.
