Liquefaction of Gases Trending!
Liquefaction of Gases – Critical Phenomenon A gas can be liquefied by lowering the temperature and increasing the pressure. At lower temperature, the gas molecules lose kinetic energy. The slow moving molecules then aggregate due to intermolecular attractions between them and are converted into liquid. The increase of pressure - The gas molecules come closer by compression and coalesce to form the liquid.

Basic Electronics Trending!
A normal P-N junction diode is usually fabricated by adjusting the P-type and N-type semiconductors on a single semiconductor crystal. The characteristics of a junction diode demonstrate that it is designed largely for operating in the forward direction. Applying a large amount of forward bias causes greater forward current with a small value of forward voltage.
