Some More Articles on Chemistry on Knol Platform

I collected some more articles on chemistry on the knol platform


Knol sub-directory – new knols - chemistry
http://knol.google.com/k/narayana-rao-kvss/-/2utb2lsm2k7a/1537#


Presently these articles are not exclusive to IIT JEE. I shall motivate authors to write articles focused on JEE topics and then give a list of articles exclusively useful to JEE.

This list is a list of all new knols on chemistry. From this list I shall periodically select interesting knols and transfer them to interesting knol list.

Hydroboration Oxidation of Alkenes

Alkenes react with diborane (B2H6) and form trialkyl boranes.
Trialkylboranes then react with H2O2 and give alcohols.

Due to this reaction Propene is converted to alcohol

H3C-CH=CH2 is converted to H3C-CH2-CH2OH

The final result of this raction is the addition of a water molecule to the double bond of the molecule in a direction opposite to that of Markownikov rule.

This reaction was discovered by Herbert C. Brown, who was awared Nobel prize in 1980 for the synthetic use of the reaction.

Muffle Furnace

The relevant meaning of muffle to understand what is muffle furnace.

(v. t.) A small oven for baking and fixing the colors of painted or printed pottery, without exposing the pottery to the flames of the furnace or kiln.
(v. t.) An earthenware compartment or oven, often shaped like a half cylinder, used in furnaces to protect objects heated from the direct action of the fire, as in scorification of ores, cupellation of ore buttons, etc.

http://thinkexist.com/dictionary/meaning/muffle/



A muffle furnace is a (usually) front-loading box-type oven or kiln
for high-temperature applications (up to 1200 C) such as fusing glass,
creating enamel coatings, etc.

IIT JEE Memory Skills - Rote Learning

Rote Learning

Rote learning is a learning technique which avoids understanding the inner complexities and inferences of the subject that is being learned and instead focuses on memorizing the material so that it can be recalled by the learner exactly the way it was read or heard. In other words, it is learning "just for the test".

The major practice involved in rote learning techniques is learning by repetition, based on the idea that one will be able to recall the meaning of the material the more they repeat it. However, in many fields, especially mathematics and related disciplines, this can often produce poor results.

Rote learning is also referred to as parrot fashion, regurgitation or mugging. However, with some material rote learning is the only way to learn it in a timely manner. For example, when learning the alphabets, the vocabulary of a foreign language or the conjugation of foreign irregular verbs, since they have no inner structure or their inner complexity is too subtle to be learned explicitly in a short time.

http://www.k12academics.com/educational-psychology/rote-learning

Rote learning is the least efficient memory aid. Most people cannot remember rote-learned information for very long.

What is the important point to be noted by JEE aspirants? When you are studying for the first time make sure you understand the meaning of every sentence in the lesson. You will be able to recall information better when you have understood the meaning of every sentence and word? Why can you recall better. Because memory is related to association. When you say you understood a word or sentence, you are able express the word in a picture that represents the word or you are able to express it in a different word that is more familiar to you. So in either case you are associating the new word or a sentence with word and pictures which are already your memory and this helps in better recall.


Rote learning works better when the material has built-in memory cues of its own.

Rehearsal is an important part of rote learning. You have to make sure to schedule adequate time for it in your study schedule.

Rote by Rhythm and Rhyme

Rhythm and rhyme are built-in memory aids. If you can write your sentences with with rhyming words. That will help you in recollecting the material fast.

Rote by Tune
If information can be arranged into a familiar tune you will recollect it more easily.

Rote and rewrite

Generally writing something over and over is a poor memory strategy. Not much sinks in.

But writing may help in remembering spelling.

Also as explaining a concept to yourself helps in memorizing it and you can write down your explanation. That will help you to review your own explanation and also helps in memorizing it. In writing your explanation, you can build in rhythm, rhyme, tune, cue words into the writeup.

IIT JEE Detailed Chapter Study Plans for Chemistry

I completed preparing detailed study plans for all chapters of chemistry. You can visit them through the label Jauhar chapter study guide.

The same study plan is applicable to AIEEE also as this time I used CBSE syllabus as the basis for developing yearly study plans.

IIT JEE Chemistry - Study Plans - Progress

I justed posted the study plna for chapter 6, chemical kinetics. I may complete plans for all chapters by tomorrow night. That will complete study plans for all subjects. Once I link all the chapters to the study plan for JEE 2011, the annual plans give you a view of what lies ahead in terms of basic preparation.

I urge all candidates to be ahead of the plan and ask questions regarding the chapter during the planned study period. The benefit - many may be reading the chapters. Hence you will get the answer from somebody.

Cyanide Process or Cyanide Leaching Process of Extracting Gold and Silver

Mixing the tailings of gold and silver ores with a cyanide solution, or simply spraying the tailings with a cyanide solution, would cause a chemical reaction to take place. When gold and silver come in contact with cyanide, they it liquefy. Now the gold-silver-cyanide solution can be drained off and processed further.
Another chemical reaction is put to work to separate the cyanide solution from the liquid gold and silver. Zinc is mixed with this solution, which causes the gold and silver to return to a solid form.

Now there is a solid of gold, silver, and zinc. Yet another chemical reaction is used to remove the zinc. Sulphuric acid dissolves the zinc and leaves just the gold-silver mixture.

From this gold-silver solid, gold and silver are separated by further processing.

Schrodinger’s Equation

Quantum mechanics describes the spectra in a much better way than Bohr’s model.

Electron has a wave character as well as a particle character. The wave function of the electron ψ(r,t ) is obtained by solving Schrodinger’s wave equation. The probability of finding an electron is high where | ψ(r,t )|² is greater. Not only the information about the electron’s position but information about all the properties including energy etc. that we calculated using the Bohr’s postulates are contained in the wave function of ψ(r,t).

Quantum Mechanics of the Hydrogen Atom

The wave function of the electron ψ(r,t) is obtained from the Schrodinger’s equation

-(h²/8Ï€²m) [∂²Ïˆ /∂x² + ∂²Ïˆ /∂y² + ∂²Ïˆ/∂z²] - Ze²Ïˆ/4πε0r = E ψ


where
(x.y,z ) refers to a point with the nucleus as the origin and r is the distance of this point from the nucleus.
E refers to the energy.
Z is the number of protons.

There are infinite number of functions ψ(r,t) which satisfy the equations.

These functions may be characterized by three parameters n,l, and ml.

For each combination of n,l, and ml there is an associated unique value of E of the atom of the ion.

The energy of the wave function of characterized by n,l, and ml depends only on n and may be written as


En = - mZ²e4/8 ε0²h²n²

These energies are identical with Bohr’s model energies.

The paramer n is called the principal quantum number, l the orbital angular momentum quantum number and ml. The magnetic quantum number.

When n = 1, the wave function of the hydrogen atom is

ψ(r) = ψ100 = √(Z³/ Ï€ a0²) *(e-r/ a0)


ψ100 denotes that n =1, l = 0 and ml = 0

a0 = Bohr radius

In quantum mechanics, the idea of orbit is invalid. At any instant the wve function is spread over large distances in space, and wherever ψ≠ 0, the presence of electron may be felt.

The probability of finding the electron in a small volume dV is | ψ(r)| ² dV
We can calculate the probability p(r)dr of finding the electron at a distance between r and r+dr from the nucleus.

In the ground state for hydrogen atom it comes out to be

P(r) = (4/ a0)r²e -2r/ a0

The plot of P(r) versus r shows that P(r) is maximum at r = a0 Which the Bohr’s radius.

But when we put n =2, the maximum probability comes at two radii one near r = a0 and the other at r = 5.4 a0. According to Bohr model all electrons should be at r = 4 a0.
