Chemistry and life, love etc.
Chemistry is an integrated part of JEE preparation (if you want to clear ie) or any other syllabus for that matter. So while preparing for this dreaded subject, I used to find many ways to remember it easily. Later as I found out, it bears a striking resemblance with real life!
Here is what I observed :
|
What it is in Organic chemistry |
What it means in real life |
|
1) Opposites attract; likes repel |
Well, this made sense to me until I found about gayism. But later even gayism made sense when I read about ‘short range’ nuclear forces. J |
|
2) Force of attraction is inversely proportional to distance squared |
The closer you are to a person (mentally or physically), more you like him/her (or both). One way of looking at it is, you would not have been close unless you liked the person. So be it. For me its one more formula learnt. |
|
3) Polar bonds are unstable in a Protic solvent and may dissociate. |
A strained (polar) relationship is easily broken by an external factor, like Extra marital affair (solvent molecule!) |
|
4) Intra molecular reactions faster than intermolecular ones. |
The nearer a person stays to you, more are the chances of your fling. |
|
5) Neighbouring Group Participation |
Just an extreme case of No. 4. |
|
6) Free radicals are highly reactive species |
Well, obviously you must have met people putting N fight to pair up. |
