Studying doesn’t have to feel like a slog. The truth is: your brain isn’t built to drag through hours of tedium—it responds best to pattern, reward and rhythm. By shifting how you approach study time, you can turn it from duty into something your brain actually enjoys. Here are five simple, smart ways to do it. Try one today and see how your focus follows. 1. Study in Short Bursts, Not Endless Sessions Forget the idea that you must sit for three hours straight. Cognitive science shows our attention drops significantly after about 25–30 minutes. So use the Pomodoro Technique : study for 25 minutes, take a 5‑minute break; after four rounds, give yourself a longer break (15–20 minutes). That rhythm gives your brain permission to reset—and makes that “next block” easier to start. 2. Turn Learning into a Game The brain loves victory—even tiny ones. Set fun micro‑challenges: finish chapter one in 20 minutes, get 10 questions right in a row, or beat yesterday’s time. E...
How to Analyse the Ions in a Mixture of Copper II tetraoxosulphate VI and Ammonium trioxocarbonate IV
Copper sulphate(copper II tetraoxosulphate VI) is one of the soluble compounds of copper, it is a blue crystal solid with five molecules of water of crystallization. It can lose its water of crystallization on strong heating to form anhydrous salt which is white in colour. For more detailed information on the analysis of copper sulphate, click Here. Ammonium carbonate (ammonium trioxocarbonate IV) is a white crystal solid and it is very soluble in water, Click here for more information. A mixture of ammonium Carbonate and copper sulphate will undergo double decomposition to give ammonium sulphate and copper carbonate. Double decomposition is a type of reaction in which two soluble compounds react by the exchange of radicals to form one soluble compound and one insoluble compound. CuSO 4 + (NH 4 ) 2 CO 3 ------- CuCO 3 + (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 Copper carbonate is a green powder and insoluble while ammonium sulphate is a whit...
