 Modern farming techniques make agriculture more efficient, productive, and sustainable by using advanced tools and methods. Here’s a simpler explanation: 1. Precision Farming Using tools like GPS and sensors to give plants exactly what they need—water, fertilizers, or pesticides—at the right time and place. 2. Soil-Free Farming Hydroponics: Growing plants in water with nutrients instead of soil. Aquaponics: Combining fish farming with plant growing, where fish waste fertilizes plants. 3. Vertical Farming Growing crops in stacked layers indoors, saving space and water, especially in cities. 4. Drones in Farming Small flying machines that check crops, spray pesticides, and help map farms for better management. 5. Smart Machines and AI Robots and smart tools that help plant, water, or harvest crops. AI can also predict weather and detect crop diseases. 6. Improved Seeds Scientists create seeds that produce more food, resist pests, and grow in tough conditions like drought. 7. E...

project on adsorption

                     Adsorption Introduction There are several examples, which reveal that the surface of a solid has the tendency to attract and retain the molecules of the phase with which it  comes into contact. Thesemolecules remain only at the surface and do not go deeper into the bulk. Adsorption The accumulation of molecular species at the surface rather than in the bulk of a solid or liquid is termed  adsorption.   Adsorbate The molecular species or substance, which concentrates or accumulates at the surface is termed adsorbate . Adsorbent The material on the surface  of which the adsorption takes place is called adsorbent . Adsorption in action (i) If a gas like O2 , H2  , CO, Cl2  , NH3  or SO2   is taken in a closed vessel  containing powdered charcoal, it is observed that the pressure of the  gas in the enclosed vessel decreases. The gas molecules concentrate...
