Q. what is colloidal particle and size ?

Colloidal particle : the particle which cannot pass through the semipermeable membrane are known as colloidal particle.
The size of colloidal particle is between 10-7 – 10-5 cm.
Eg : starch, protein, albumin, gelatin.

what is error and its different types (in chemistry)

Q.1. What is ERROR ? Error  is defined as the numerical difference between  measured value  and  true value  in analytical determination. Q.2. What are the different types of           error ? Error is of two types :-            1. Determinate error            2. Indeterminate error . 1.  Determinate error The errors which can be avoided or whose magnitude can be determine and can be rectified are called determinate error. These errors are caused by defecting experiment apparatus or technique when in the measurement of weight of substance is uncalibrated weight are used then the weight in term of error is known as determinate error. Uses  - This error can be rectified or remove replacing uncalibrated weight. Determinate error is of  three types  1. Instrumental error. 2. Personal error. 3. Error of method. 1.  Instrumental er...

Industrial production of ethyl alcohol by fermentation.

Image
1.  Industrial production of ethyl alcohol by fermentation               The raw material used for the large scale production of ethyl alcohol by the process of fermentation Molasses and starch. 1.1.  FROM MOLASSES  In our country  molasses is the chief raw material for the production of  ethyl alcohol. Molasses  contains about  30% sucrose  and about  32% invert sugar . As strong sugar concentration is not suitable for fermentation by yeast, it is diluted with water to a  10% sugar  solution called "  mash ". It is then transferred to a large steel tank called  fermenter  and made  slightly acidic (PH 4.0 to 5.0)  by adding  sulphuric acid . Acid prevents the growth of unwanted bacteria and promotes vigorous growth of yeast cells beneficial for  alcoholic fermentation. Required amount of  ammonium   sulphate  and  ammonium phosp...

Definition Of Significant Figure And Rounding Off Examples.

Q.1. What is SIGNIFICANT FIGURE  ?         SIGNIFICANT FIGURE                      the significant figure in a numerical expression is defined as these digit whose value are known along with additional digit whole value is uncertain. Eg :   24.82 cm having 3 certain digits are 2, 4, 8 and one doubtful digit is 2. Therefore, this reading has 4 significant figure. * Rules for determining the number of significant figure : 1. Except zero(0) all the digit 1 to 9 are significant. Example : 4.25 number has 3 significant figure. 71. 435 number has 5 significant figure. 2. All digits include zero are significant if zero appears in between non-zero digit. Example : 40.05 has 4 significant figure. 3. Zero to the left of the first non- zero digit in a number is not significant. It indicates only decimal point. Example  : 0.4 28 has 3 significant figure. 0.054 has 2 significant figure. 4. ...
