MAGNETISM XII (Class 12) NOTES | NEB NEPAL | MAGNET AND ITS PROPERTIES

MAGNET :                                             A magnet is a material which has its atoms arranged in such a way that it exhibits attractive and directive characters. Properties of Magnet : 1.) A magnet has attractive property . It can attract ferromagnetic materials like iron, nickel, cobalt and their alloys. The strength of attraction follows the inverse square law. Ferromagnetic materials : The substances like iron, below a certain temperature (curie point) can possess magnetization (magnetic property) in the absence of an external magnetic field.  These substances are called ferromagnetic materials.  2.) A magnet's strength is concentrated in two poles i.e. North pole and South Pole . NOTE:             Even if we break/cut a magnet, the broken pieces will also have both the poles. A magnet having only a single pole (magnetic monopole) has been theorized but has not been practically observed. 3.) The north poles of two magnets repel each other and north and

GEOMETRY OF MOLECULES XII (Class 12) NOTES | NEB NEPAL | VSEPR THEORY

VALENCE SHELL ELECTRON PAIR REPULSION THEORY (VSEPR Theory) :                                                                             VSEPR theory is based on the idea that electron pairs try to be far apart as possible in the central atom of a covalent molecule. The shape of molecules depends on the number and nature of electron pairs present in the valence shell of central atom of molecule.  Postulates/Assumptions of VSEPR theory : 1.) In a covalent molecule or an ion, there is a central atom to which all other atoms are attached. 2.) Pair of electrons are present in the valence shell of central atom. They are of following types :      a.) Bond pair : The pairs taking part in the reaction.      b.) Lone pair : The pairs left out during bonded state.  3.) The repulsion between electron pairs are in the following order :       Bond pair and Bond pair < Bond pair and Lone pair < Lone pair and Lone pair 4.) The shape of the molecule or the ion is the f
