Description

Nanoparticles are defined by the worldwide federation of national standards bodies, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), as nanoobjects with all external dimensions in the nanoscale, where the lengths of the longest andshortest axes of nanoobjects do not differ significantly . Though nanoscale is basically ranged from 1 to 100 nm, nanoparticles can be categorized by three size ranges: larger than 500 nm, between 100 and 500 nm, and between 1 and 100 nm (European Commission, 2010). With respect to the size and the size distribution, nanoparticles may exhibit size-related intensive properties. If they are small enough to confine their electrons, they produce quantum effects and exhibit unexpected properties, for example, gold nanoparticles appear red in solution (see, for instance, Eustis and El-Sayed, 2006), and melt at much lower temperatures than that in slab form (Buffat and Borel, 1976). The high surface-area-to-volume ratio of nanoparticles provides the significant changes in properties related to contact/surface area, such as catalytic (Astruc, 2008),surface-enhanced plasmon resonance (Melaine et al., 2015), etc.

B01: BEHAVIOUR AND BEHAVIOUR MODIFICATION Trending!
The course reinforces aspects of positive change in behaviour that includes attitudes and problems as a result of misconduct. It explores ways in which behaviour may be said to be pathological and consequently the need for desirable positive amendment in behaviour and the ways this can be improved or brought about, as well as intervention techniques that can be used for this purpose. The course further seeks insight and special attention to the relationships between counsellor and client in transforming behaviour in therapy as well as general psychology including dealing with children, adolescence, mid-life crisis and adults. The influence of the therapist, the power of the counsellor – client relationship and their effects on psychological management are highlighted.

CPY 410: COUNSELLING PERSONS WITH ALCOHOL AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE DISORDERS Trending!
Codependency can be defined as a disease of self-personhood which results from exposure and practice of a set of oppressive rules. These rules prevent the practice of open expression of feelings and direct and spontaneous expression of one's interpersonal problems and ideas.

ACH 101: Introduction to Inorganic Chemistry Trending!
The electronic configuration of cations is assigned by removing electrons first in the outermost p orbital, followed by the s orbital and finally the d orbitals (if any more electrons need to be removed). Example: calcium (Z=20), 1s22s22p63s23p64s2; Ca2+: EC is 1s22s22p63s23p6 chlorine (Z=17), EC is 1s22s22p63s23p5 Cl- : 1s22s22p63s23p6. The ns electrons are always lost before the (n-1)d when forming cations for transition metals. For example, Zn: [Ar]4s23d10  Zn+2: [Ar]3d10
