Forward Differences 01

In this article, we shall study to prepare the forward difference table from the given data. Example – 1: If f(x) = x2 + x + 1, construct a forward difference table by taking x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 i.e. 0(1)5. Hence find Df(o), D2f(1) and D3f(2). Solution: Given f(x) = x2 […]

Reactions of Alkenes

In the last article, we have studied methods of preparation of alkenes. In this article, we shall study the reactions of alkenes Stability of Alkenes: The stability of alkenes is measured in terms of its heat of hydrogenation. The heat of hydrogenation of an alkene is defined as the amount of heat evolved when one […]

Alkenes: Introduction

In this article, we shall learn about alkanes, isomerism in alkenes. Compounds containing carbon and hydrogen only are called hydrocarbons. Examples: Methane (CH4), Ethane (C2H6), Benzene (C6H6), etc. Aliphatic Hydrocarbons: The hydrocarbons in which carbon atoms are joined form an open chain are called aliphatic hydrocarbons. Examples: Methane (CH4), Ethane (C2H6), etc. Aliphatic hydrocarbons are […]

Probability: Normal Distribution

Science > Mathematics > Statistics and Probability > Probability > Normal Distribution 01 The normal distribution refers to a family of continuous probability distributions described by the normal equation. on the domain x ∈ (- ∞, ∞) where x is a normal random variable, μ is the mean, σ is the standard deviation, Thus the normal distribution can be completely specified by two […]
