(a) Langmuir isotherm model Langmuir isotherm is based on the following assumptions: (a) each surface site can be singly occupied, (b) there are no lateral interactions between adsorbed species, (c) the enthalpy of adsorption is independent of surface coverage and (d) energy of adsorption is constant. The Langmuir isotherm is 2.5…

2.1. C. tomentosum extract characterization C. tomentosum extract proximal composition is shown in Table 1. The relatively higher ash proportion in seaweed extract (SE) (aprox. 74%) could largely be accounted for by the lower moisture content, and probably due to a hygroscopic nature of the SE (Blanco-Pascual, Montero, & Gómez-Guillén, 2014). The values of TPC and DPPH radical-scavenging activity are consistent with literature (Andrade et al., 2013; Valentão et al., 2010) (Table 1). POD and PPO…

1.3. AMORPHOUS STATE The amorphous state of solids is composed of molecules that have a disordered arrangement, which do not constitute to the characteristic of the crystal grid and, therefore, have zero crystallinity. The distribution of molecules in the solid amorphous form is not entirely random as it is specific to a gaseous state because it has a certain degree of order between neighboring molecules. Due to the lack of regulation and the absence of a crystal grid, compared to the crystal…

Table of content Introduction Two dimensional electron system Hall geometry Classical interpretation of IQHE Quantum mechanical interpretation of IQHE Significance of IQHE References Introduction The integral quantum hall effect (IQHE) was first discovered by Klaus von Klitzing and coworkers in 1980. It was demonstrated by two dimensional electron system in a device called metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET), under low temperature and large magnetic…

Abstract: A one dimensional variable range hopping type conduction is observed in Poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): polystyrenesulfonate (PEDOT : PSS) films and the mechanism behind enhancement in conductivity in 3% dimethyle sulfoxide (DMSO) doped PEDOT:PSS film is due to the phase segregation of PSS on the surface and reduction of energy barrier between the conducting grains. Enhanced conductivity of PEDOT:PSS films and transparency more than 80% in the visible region makes PEDOT:PSS films…

1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 History In 1892, a scientist at Oxford University, Sir James Dewar has invented the “vacuum flask”. This bottle created a vacuum, which is an effective insulator. Dewar created his insulated bottle by sealing one bottle inside another and pumping out the air between them. In 1904, German glass-blower Reinhold burger and his partner Albert Aschenbrenner who patented Dewar’s invention and manufactured it for commercial use. They are the one who made bottles for Dewar. Burger…

Eureka! Do you remember that pleasant feeling when a brilliant idea flashed into your head? Over 2000 years ago in ancient Greece, a physicist Archimedes was trying to solve a problem of physics. One day, while taking a bath, he suddenly got an inspiration, and discovered a breakthrough principle. He got so excited about this discovery that he leapt out the bathtub, ran through the streets without his clothes, and cried out, "Eureka!”: in English, “I’ve found it!”, the word to express our…

Bismuth is the 83rd chemical in the periodic table. It is found as a natural metal on the surface of the earth. Bi has a ground state electronic configuration of [Xe]4f145d106s26p3 and trivalent and pentavalent Bi, Bi(III) and Bi(V), respectively, are the two predominant oxidation states. [27] It was discovered over a thousand years ago but was often confused with tin and lead. It is a prevalent post transition metal, which chemically resembles arsenic or antimony. Bismuth is the most naturally…

The purpose of this paper is to find out what material is the gold crown ring made out of. What is interesting about this topic is that there is a lot of ways to study the gold crown ring. For example, you can test the mass, volume, and density of the ring. In the periodic table Au is the symbol for Gold, it’s atomic number is 79. The Properties of Matter are Mass, Weight, Volume, and Length. Each property has its own way of working with different types of things. It is believed that the…

General relativity is fundamentally incompatible with quantum mechanics- they have been at odds with each other since its discovery in 1915- relativity breaks down at the subatomic level and vice versa. A conjecture by two physicists may finally reconcile relativity with quantum mechanics and put an end to the chain of inconsistencies began by Hawking’s information paradox. Albert Einstein first discussed the concept of quantum entanglement in a 1935 paper co-written with his colleagues Boris…
