Chemistry is that branch of science which deals with the composition, structure and properties of matter. Organic chemistry is predominantly concerned with the reactions that organic molecules undergo. Hydrocarbons are compounds that contain only carbon and hydrogen atoms. Carboxylic acids contain both a carbonyl group (C=O) and a hydroxyl group (–OH) on a terminal carbon. Carboxylic acids, like aldehydes, are terminal functional groups.
Here follows the class 10 Chemistry - Carbon and Its Compounds notes available as pdf file.

Class 10 - Science - Chapter 14 

Sources Of Energy 

CBSE Class 10 - Science - Chapter 14 - Sources Of Energy - Study Points (#eduvictors)(#cbsenotes)

Study Points

Energy:  
Whenever a body is capable of doing work, the body is said to possess energy. Thus energy is defined as the ability of a body to do work and the amount of energy possessed by a body is equal to the amount of work it can do when its energy is released.

Energy comes in different forms and one form can be converted to another. For example, if we drop a plate from a height, the potential energy of the plate is converted mostly to sound energy when it hits the ground.

A good source of energy should be:

i) Safe and convenient to use, e.g., nuclear energy can be used only by highly trained engineers with the help of nuclear power plants. It cannot be used for our household purposed.

ii) Easy to transport, e.g., coal, petrol, diesel, LPG etc. Have to be transported from the places of their production to the consumers.

iii) Easy to store, e.g., huge storage tanks are required to store petrol, diesel, LPG etc.

Clean Air: From Donora to Delhi -
Can we breathe safely?

Class 7/8/9/10 - Science - Clean Air: From Donora to Delhi - Can we breathe safely? (#eduvictors)(#cbse-notes)

With the industrial revolution, the human mankind experienced the air pollution for the first time and realized it as a potential threat to human life. The black smoke of locomotives, factories from the industrial towns of England blackened its cities.

In 1950s, the smoke of industrialized Pennsylvania valley in USA made the air murkier. In the small town of Donora, population 14,000, residents suffered eye, nose, and throat irritation and breathing difficulties resulting in 20 deaths.

In 2008, on the 60th anniversary of the event, the town opened the Donora Smog Museum with the
slogan "Clean Air Starts Here".
