How to Trick Your Brain Into Loving Study Sessions (Seriously)

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...

Application of Stoichiometry in Chemistry Calculations

    Stoichiometry is the quantitative study of the reactants and products involved in a chemical reaction. Stoichiometry is also the calculation of products and reactants in a chemical reaction. It deals with the number of products and reactants involved in a chemical reaction.   Importance of Chemical Stoichiometry It helps chemists to use balanced chemical equations to determine the moles of reactants and products in a chemical reaction. It helps to determine the mass of reactants and products required or present in a chemical reaction. It helps chemists measure the molecular weight of substances. It helps to measure the formulae. Basic Concepts of Stoichiometric Reaction In a stoichiometric reaction, there are some basic things to note to make it easier to understand. We can get the pictures of these things by considering the equation below:      3Fe(S) + 4H2O(I) → Fe3O4(S) + 4H2(g)    The stoichiometric coefficient of this chemical reaction ...
