Properties of Substance

Science > Chemistry > Introduction to Chemistry > Properties of Substance All matter has physical and chemical properties. Extensive properties are those properties of a substance which depend on the amount of substance. They vary with the amount of the substance. Examples: Mass, weight, and volume. Intensive properties are those properties of a substance which do not depend […]

Science > Physics > Heat Transfer > Conduction Heat always gets transferred from the body and higher temperature to a body at lower temperature heat transfer can take place in three ways a) Conduction b) Convection and c) Radiation. In this article, we shall study the heat transfer by the conduction. Conduction: If one end […]

Modes of Heat Transfer

Science > Physics > Heat Transfer > Convection and Radiation In this article, we shall study different modes of heat transfer. Convection: Convection is a mode of heat transfer through a material medium in which heat energy is carried from one place to another by actual motion “migration” of heated matter. Consider a beaker containing […]
