Some important terms of chemistry for exam point of view

 Drugs are low molecular masses chemicals which are interacted with macromolecular targets and produce a biological response. When the biological response is therapeutic and useful then the chemicals are called is called medicine.


Antacid: A kind of drug which is used to neutralize the acid level in our body is called antacid. Example: - backing soda, metal hydroxyl like Al (oh) 3


Antiseptic: - a kind of drug which is applied to the cut, wounds, ulcer, etc. to protect from the septic (a kind of skin disease. Example: - Dettol


Dettol is a mixture of chloroxylenol and terpineol     


The tincture of iodine is a 2.3% solution of iodine in alcohol, which is a powerful antiseptic.


Antihistamine: - Antihistamine is a type of drug which is used for the treatment of allergies. Example: - Avil, diphenhydramine. 


Analgesic: - It is a type of drug which is used to relieve pain. It is two types:-

Narcotic (Morphine) and Non-narcotic (Aspirin)


Tranquilizer: - It is a type of drug which is used for the treatment of mental stress. Example: - heroine.


Disinfectant: - It is a type of drug that is used to kill or stop the growth of microorganisms but is harmful to live cells.


Antipyretics: - it is a type of drug which is used to decrease body temperature during high fever.


Antibiotics: - it is a type of drug which is produced by living cells and capable of inhibiting the life process of microorganisms.


 Food preservatives: - Compounds that are used to protect food from bacteria, yeasts, and molds.


Soaps are the sodium or potassium salts of saturated and unsaturated long-chain carboxylic acid containing 12 to 18 carbon atoms (fatty acid).


Advantage of soap:-

1) It is a biodegradable

2) It does not create any pollution.

Disadvantage:-

1) It cannot be used in hard water

2) It cannot be used in acidic solutions.


 Advantage of detergent:-

1) It can be used in hard water as well as acidic water

The disadvantage of detergent:-

1) It is not biodegradable. So it causes water pollution.

2) It is also harmful to aquatic animals.


 Galvanic cell: - it is a device that can change the chemical energy of a spontaneous redox reaction into electrical energy is called a galvanic cell. Example: - daniel cell.



Electrolytic cell: - the cell which can be used to change the electrical energy of a non-spontaneous redox reaction into chemical energy is called an electrolytic cell. 



Salt Bridge: - Salt Bridge is u shaped tube that can be used to maintain electricity in half cells.


Electrode potential: - the potential difference which is produced between two electrodes when electrons move from one electrode to another electrode. There are two types:-


Oxidation electrode potential: - tendency of an electrode to lose electrons or to get oxidized is called oxidation electrode potential.


Reduction electrode potential: - tendency of an electrode to gain electrode or to get reduced is called reduction electrode potential.


Standard electro potential: - when the concentration of all the species involves in a half cell reaction as a unity then the electrode potential is known as standard electrode potential.


The main function of the salt bridge: - to complete the circuit by allowing the ions to flow from one solution to another without mixing it to maintain the electrical neutrality in half cells.


Cell potential: - the difference between the electrode potential of two-electron consisting of an electrochemical cell 


Electrolyte: - electrolytes are the substances that allow electricity to pass through them in their molten state. There are two types of electrolyte –

      1)  Strong electrolyte

      2)  Weak electrolyte


Weak electrolyte: -The electrolytes which are not ionized in solution such type of electrolyte is called a weak electrolyte.


Strong electrolyte: - the electrolytes which are almost completely ionized in solution such type of electrolyte is called a strong electrolyte.


Molar conductivity: - It is defined as the conducting power of all the ions produced by dissolving one mole of electrolyte in solution is called molar conductivity.


Limiting molar conductivity: - when concentration approaches zero is called limiting molar conductivity.


Kohlrausch law of independent migration: - this law state that the limiting molar conductivity of an electrolyte can be represented as some of the individual contributions of anion and cation of the electrolyte


Faraday's first law: - this law state that the mass of a substance is deposited at a particular electrode is directly proportional to the amount of charge passing through the electrolyte.


 Faraday's second law: - when an amount of electricity pass through the different electrolyte, connected in series, the weight of the substance produce at the electrode is directly proportional to their chemical equivalent weight.


 Metallic conductor: - in a metallic conductor, the current is flowing due to the flow of electrons. In the case of metallic conductors, resistance increases with an increase in temperature.


Electrolytic conductor: - in the electrolytic conductor, current flows due to flows of ions. In the case of electrolytic conductors, resistance decreases in increases in temperature.

What is Diastrophic and Non-diastrophic structure? What is the concept of Diastrophism?

 Before Know about the Diastrophic structure and non-Diastrophic structure we need to comprehend the Diastrophism interaction.  The Concept Of Diastrophism Diastrophism, likewise called tectonism, is the enormous scope misshapen of Earth's outside layer by regular cycles, which prompts the development of landmasses and sea bowls, mountain frameworks, levels, crack valleys, and different provisions by components, for example, lithospheric plate development (that is, plate tectonics), volcanic stacking, or collapsing.     The investigation of diastrophism incorporates the differing reactions of the covering to structural burdens. These reactions incorporate direct or torsional level developments (like mainland float) and vertical subsidence and elevate of the lithosphere (strain) because of normal weights on Earth's surface like the heaviness of mountains, lakes, and icy masses or glaciers.  Diastrophic Structure Any kind of movement of the Earth's crust, gen...

What is Fault? How they are formed? What are the classifications of fault? Terminology of a Fault

  A fault may be defined as a well-defined crack along which the rock masses on either side have relative displacement. The displacement along a fault may be less than a meter, several meters, or many kilometers. Faults results from tensional as well as compressional forces TERMINOLOGY OF A FAULT Fault Plane : The fracture surface of a fault, along which relative movement has taken place, is called a “fault plane”. A fault plane is generally inclined but in some other cases, the fault plane may be markedly curved or undulating.    In a fault, there may be a number of parallel shear fractures along which the fault movement is distributed. Such a fracture zone is called a “shear Zone”. Hanging Wall and Foot Wall:  The block of rock lying above the fault plane such block of rock is called a hanging wall and if it is lying below the fault plane, then it is known as a footwall. Vertical faults have neither hanging wall nor footwall. Fault Scarp:  A fault scarp is a c...

How does the moon cause ocean tide? What is the name of the coldest planet and green planet? and other some important questions and its answer

  How does the moon cause ocean tide? The moon's gravitational pull generates  something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the moon and the side farthest from the moon. These bulges of water are high tides. When the Sun and Moon are in line with the Earth (when a full moon or new moon occurs),  their combined gravity cause very high tides  (and very low tides), known as “spring tides.” So the Moon affects the tides because of gravity, but gravity from the Sun and the spinning of the Earth also change how the tides behave. The moon's gravitational pull on the Earth and the Earth's rotational force  are the two main factors that cause high and low tides. The side of the Earth closest to the Moon experiences the Moon's pull the strongest, and this causes the seas to rise, creating high tides. What is the name of the coldest planet and green planet? The lowest temperature recorded in Uranus's Tropo...
