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.

COMPUTER SYSTEMS
Computer system has three components namely: Hardware, software and liveware (computer user). A system is a collection of different entities that collectively work together to achieve a desired goal. Examples of systems are human body, social system, school system etc. A computer system is a collection of three components namely hardware, software and liveware entities that work together to receive, process, manage and present information in a meaningful format using computers

EEN 110: CONCEPTS IN ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT Trending!
The term environment comes from a French word ‘environmer’ meaning the surrounding. It is perceived as that part of the world with which humans interact, a sum of the total natural and socio components which are or may be in direct interaction with humans. The environment is also seen as a social construct made up of four dimensions; the biophysical, social, economic and political dimensions. The environment with its dimensions form a system whose dimensions interact affect and is affected by other dimensions. When any of the dimensions is affected negatively or positively the entire environment is affected. Environment is a system made up of components that interact with each other, the environment is complex system affecting the development of humanity, and it provides resources for economic growth and for ecological and social wellbeing.
