CH 202 Breakdown UV/Vis: Molecules containing π-electrons or non-bonding electrons (n-electrons) can absorb the energy in the form of ultraviolet or visible light to excite these electrons to higher anti-bonding molecular orbitals. The more easily excited the electrons (i.e. lower energy gap between the HOMO and the LUMO)‚ the longer the wavelength of light it can absorb. Conjugation raises the energy of the bonding orbitals and lowers the energy of the antibonding molecular orbital. This

members might take him as an emotional support. The linguistic differences also lead to communication breakdown. Same word may mean different to different individuals. For example: consider a word “value”. What is the value of this Laptop? I value our relation? What is the value of learning technical skills? “Value” means different in different sentences. Communication breakdown occurs if there is wrong perception by the receiver. 2. Information Overload: Managers are surrounded

WEB1.0/WEB2.0 WEB 1.0 was the early stage of the evolution of World Wide Web‚ it was centered around a top-down approach to the use of the web and the user interface. On 1989‚ Tim Berners-Lee envisioned a global information space where people and machines could equally exchange and exploit information rich in semantic value. The first web browser was created on October 1990‚ and the first web server was created on November 1990. The WWW (World Wide Web) was first launched in 1991 and was called
