    Ammonia is a compound composed of nitrogen and hydrogen, having the formula NH3. The ammonia molecule is formed by sp3 orbitals as it has a tetrahedral geometry and a trigonal pyramidal shape. Ammonia has an experimentally determined bond angle of 106.7°, and an a bond length of 101.7 pm. The nitrogen atom in the molecule has a lone electron pair, which gives the molecule a dipole moment and polarity. Ammonia’s lone electron pair makes NH3 a base, a proton acceptor, and gives it the ability to…

    “The Universe is constructed of fundamental forces or fields, resembling an invisible nervous system, which stretches throughout space and is continuously vibrating, becoming and transforming trillions of times per second.” The neronons in our brain are constantly firing. The brain starts developing very early in life, about 21 days after conception. In many ways our developmental process is a lifelong project. This is because the same events that effect our brain during development are also…

    based on organic molecules have gained popularity. These cells promise to be low-cost, flexible, environmentally friendly, and functionalizable.2,3 However, due to the increased complexity of the electron-donor systems owed to discrete molecular orbitals, the efficiencies of such cells are generally much lower. The prototypical organic photovoltaic cell has a bulk heterojunction design, sporting an active layer made of a donor-acceptor blend of polymers.4 To ensure effective charge percolation,…
