scientists like Dr Sivaramakrishna Chandrashekhar and Dr Subramaniam Chandrashekhar won laurels and recognition abroad and not in India. A typical example of bureaucratic interference in India is regarding the technology of growing ultra pure silicon crystals to make solar and other silicon cells that convert light into electricity. Two Indian Institute of Science scientists had developed the technology. In the early 80s‚ Mettur Chemicals (MetChem) in Mettur near Salem tried to install a pilot plant to

DO NOT PLAGIARISE THIS MODEL ANSWER Paragraph 1 The polymorphs involved are the halides in tetragonal rutile (TiO2) structure and the halides in so-called calcium chloride structure. As the name implies‚ the unit cell of halides in tetragonal rutile structure is tetragonal‚ with the lattice parameters a=b≠c and α=β=γ=90o

compound changes to a liquid when the molecules acquire enough energy to overcome intermolecular forces holding them together in an crystalline lattice structure. The melting point range is defined as the span of temperature from the point at which the crystals first begin to liquefy to the point at which the entire sample is liquid. This data can be tabulated experimentally through multiple trials for an unknown and referenced against the chemistry literature for a known compound. In Macroscale and Microscale

Crystal Cave of Giants The Naica mine is located in Chihuahua‚ Mexico and was first discovered in 1794. The mines primary interest was silver and gold until about the 1900’s when a large-scale mining began as Zinc and Lead become more valuable resources. This is the largest mine in the country that produces lead‚ zinc and silver‚ among other minerals. The entrance is located 1385 m above sea level in the north of the 12km.-long sierra Naica.

Crystal making lab Purpose: To better understand saturated solutions‚ solubility . Analysis: 2. Why was it necessary to heat the water? Be specific. Heating the water allows it to hold much more borax in solution than it could at room temperature. So after the water cooled‚ the ability of the solution to hold the solute inside decreases‚this causes the excess borax in the solution to precipitate in crystal form on the string.When the water at a high temperature‚ water molecules have more kinetic
