foundations of quantum theory

In Mathematics, a well-defined collection of definite objects is called a set. George Cantor is regarded as the "Father of Set theory". The concept of "Sets" is basic in all branches of mathematics. It has proved to be of particular importance in the foundations of relations and..

According to Max Planck's Quantum theory, radiation is not continuous but is made up of tiny packets of energy called photons. However, this theory could not explain other optical phenomena. From all the above theories it is clear that certain optical phenome..

Quantum Theory of Covalent Bond - Although the Lewis structures give an idea of the valence electrons around the atom, in reality it does not precisely locate the position of the electrons in the chemical bond. The behaviour of electrons in molecules and compounds is made by the..

In 1900, Max Planck presented the results of his famous black body radiation experiments, which showed that light has a dual character, behaving like a particle as well as a wave. He gave the Quantum Theory of Radiation explaining electromagnetic radiation and energ..

Two new theories came to substantially modify Bohr's Atomic model. They a..

Laws of Chemical Combination With the development of more scientific ideas on elements, compounds and mixtures, people began to probe into how and why substances react. French chemist A. Lavoisier laid the foundation to the scientific investigation of matter by describing that substan..

Electromagnetic Radiation and Energy(Planck's quantum theory) - In 1900, Max Planck presented the results of his famous black body radiation experiments, which showed that light has a dual character, behaving like a particle as well as a wave. He gave the Quantum ..

In our day to day life, we come across many uncertainty of events. We wake up in the morning and check the weather report. The statement could be 'there is 60% chance of rain today'. This statement infers that the chance of rain is more than that having a dry weather. We decide upon our breakfast f..
