Introduction: Specific gravity or relative density is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a given reference material. Specific gravity usually means relative density with respect to water. Temperature and pressure must be specified for both the sample and the reference. The following formula is used- Specific gravity= density of sample/density of same volume of water. Specific gravity is commonly used as a simple means of obtaining information about the concentration of solutions

electrical energy from nuclear fuel Introduction Obtaining electricity from nuclear fuel has its base on the radioactive decay. Radioactive decay occurs when an isotope (element with a different number of neutrons in the nucleus) is radioactive‚ because its nucleus is unstable. In time it decays and emits alpha or beta particles‚ they collide with surrounding atoms and make them move faster‚ that provokes thermal energy. That thermal energy released is around a million times bigger than from a chemical
