Description
This unit is an introductory course whose main aim is to broaden your
understanding and perspective of oral literature through studying the oral literature
of your community and that of other East African communities. I am aware that,
by now, most of you are exposed to some oral literature both through formal
education and also through contact with the material as is practiced and performed
within your own communities. However, I am also aware that due to various
influences, students are not able to fully appreciate the multidimensionality of the
oral literature discipline and more so its significance in literary studies. This course
is thus designed so that your understanding of the subject becomes broadened and
that you are able to appreciate: (a), the place of oral literature within the wider
literary studies and African literature in particular. Oral literature needs to be
recognised as a unique form of literary expression, exhibiting imaginative and
creative dimensions that enrich the study of African literature; (b) the place of oral
literature within the rich heritage of the African Oral traditions; (c) the place of
oral literature in the rediscovery of African cultural heritage eclipsed by
unfavorable historical circumstances and (d) the place of oral literature within the
Contemporary written African literary tradition

BASIC RULES FOR MECHANISM STUDIES IN ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
Carbon has 4 bonds – it is neutral.
If it has 3 bonds, then look at number of electrons.
None – positive - carbocation
1 electron – no charge – free radical
2 electrons – negative - carbanion
Curly arrow :
Atom where the arrow comes from – becomes less negative or positive.
If it was an anion – atom becomes neutral

Nano
Many authorities predict that applications of nanotechnologies will ultimately pervade virtually every aspect of life and will enable dramatic advances to be realized in most areas of communication, health, manufacturing, materials and knowledge-based technologies. Even if this is only partially true, there is an obvious need to provide industry and research with suitable tools to assist the development, application and communication of the technologies. One essential tool in this armoury will be the harmonization of the terminology and definitions used in order to promote their common understanding and consistent
usage. This terminology includes terms that are either specific to the sector covered by the title or are used with a specific meaning in the field of nanotechnology. It is one of a series of terminology PASs covering many different aspects of nanotechnologies.
This terminology attempts not to include terms that are used in a
manner consistent with a definition given in the Oxford English
Dictionary [1], and terms that already have well established meanings and to which the addition of the prefix “nano” changes only the scale to which they apply but does not otherwise change their meaningThe multidisciplinary nature of nanotechnologies can lead to confusion as to the precise meaning of some terms because of differences in usage between disciplines. Users are advised that, in order to support the standardization of terminology, this PAS provides single definitions wherever possible

Nanoparticles: synthesis and applications
Trending!
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.
