Difference Between A Chemical And A Nuclear Reaction
March 1st 2012 07:53
One of the key concepts that students get confused about when they study high-school chemistry and physics, is the difference between a chemical and a nuclear reaction. This concept is something quite easy but since most students forget the most basic definitions of chemical reaction, they find the new concept of nuclear reaction a little difficult to digest.
Just remember this simple rule, whenever there is a transfer or sharing of electrons in the outermost shells of an atom, the reaction is a chemical reaction. On the other hand a nuclear reaction is one in which the change takes place within the nucleus, not outside it. Thus its neutrons may decompose and turn into radiation emitting outwards. In most cases, the atom's atomic number changes and it decomposes to atom of some other element.

December 31st 2011 16:06
Sleep is the utmost human requirement, but it is often the neglected and least cared about necessity of human life. Not just humans, but animals too require a good sleep to allow their bodies to function properly. But for humans, lack of sleep can lead to quite adverse affects on their health.
We all live a very hectic life in this current high-tech generation, where all our day's chores are either devoted to work or unhealthy activities. Thus, it is quite obvious that sleep is ignored as we want to do more and more things while we are awake. It is a thoroughly established fact that adults should take at least 7 to 8 hours of sleep, but on the contrary we sleep merely 5 to 6 hours, which causes numerous ill affects on our metabolism, leading to several ailments like; diabetes and heart diseases.
The same goes for children who on average should sleep 9 to 12 hours a day, depending upon age. However, they either sleep more, or quite less then the prescribed. Thus it is important that both you and your children follow a perfect sleeping guide, so that you don't put yourself and your child under any risk, when it comes to health.
Sleep Regression In Babies
There are certain things to ponder over regarding you children's sleep, especially if you have just got a new little angel at your home. These things are not just about sleep hours, but about sleep cycle as well. Babies tend to develop certain habits like the well established fact of sleep regression among babies and require appropriate look after.
New born babies are required to sleep at least 18 hours a day; this isn't a continuous sleep as they have to wake up to for food. But when the new born reaches an age of 4 months, he tends to deviate from his sleeping pattern. As a result the baby starts to wake up more often, and you might thing that he may be asking for food, but in reality he is just trying to adjust his sleep. This is termed as 4 months sleep regression in babies and is one of the toughest tests for parents after the baby is born.
However, when the baby starts to grow right before your eyes and enters his child hood you have to understand his requirements and how can he affectively maintain a good sleep routine, so that it might benefit him when he grows old.

This will relax you a bit and induce sleep.
