Decimals
Decimal is a numerical representation that uses a dot, which we call a decimal point, to separate the whole number part from its fractional part. The decimal numeral system is used as the standard system that is used to distinguish integer and non-integer numbers....

Vertically Opposite Angles
Vertically Opposite Angles, also called Vertical Angles; are angles that stand across from each other when two lines intersect. Imagine two straight lines crossing like a giant letter ‘X.’ The angles formed on opposite sides of this intersection are called vertically opposite angles. These angles share a unique relationship – they are equal to each other. So, if you know the measurement of one vertically opposite angle, you automatically know the size of the other....

Permanent Magnet
Permanent Magnets are materials that can create a magnetic field even if the magnetization force is removed. Unlike other magnets, it keeps its magnetic power all the time. They are made of hard ferromagnetic materials, for example, Ferrite and Alnico....

Perfect Square
Perfect Square is a number obtained by multiplying a whole number by itself, like 4 which is obtained when 2 is multiplied by itself, i.e. 2 × 2 = 4, thus 4 is a perfect square. In mathematical terms, the perfect square is expressed as a2....

Cayley Hamilton Theorem
Cayley Hamilton Theorem was introduced by mathematician Arthur Cayley. It is a crucial idea in matrix algebra. It states that each square matrix adheres to a distinct equation known as the characteristic polynomial. This polynomial, derived from adjustments to the matrix, is essential for comprehending the matrix’s characteristics....

Binary Operation
Binary Operation is an operation defined for any set S such that it takes two elements from S as input and produces a single element in S as output. As the name suggests, binary operations require at least two inputs as it is defined from the cartesian product of set to set itself....

Determination of Boiling Point of Organic Compounds
Determining the boiling point of organic compounds is essential for understanding their properties and behavior. It is the temperature at which a substance changes its state from liquid to gas. Several factors contribute to the boiling point of organic compounds, including intermolecular forces, molecular weight, and symmetry. In this article, we look into what a boiling point is, organic compounds, how to determine the boiling point of a given compound, precautions, etc....

Octagonal Prism
Octagonal Prism is a 3D shape with two octagon-shaped ends connected by eight rectangular sides. Thus an octagonal has 10 faces out of which 8 are rectangular and 2 are octagonal. In this article, we’ll talk about what an octagon prism is, its surface area and volume formulas, and real-life examples where we see octagonal objects....

Methyl Ester
Methyl Esters are mono-alkyl esters of long-chain fatty acids derived from vegetable oils or animal fats. These compounds are commonly used in various fields, including chemistry, biochemistry, and mass spectrometry. Methyl esters are simple in structure and are widely used for fatty acid analysis, particularly for polyunsaturated fatty acids and those with functional groups....

Optical Isomerism
Optical Isomerism is a property of Organic Compounds in which they have the same molecular and structural formula but they can’t superimpose on each other. This is due to the different arrangement of carbon atoms in three-dimensional space. The structures exhibiting Optical isomerism are called Optical Isomers. Optical Isomerism is one of the most important concepts in Organic Chemistry and helps to understand various difficult reactions....
