Atoms react to become stable by having 8 e in the outermost shell. For this reason they either lose or gain or share electron. If electrons is lost , positive ion is formed. If electron is gained, negative ion is formed. How? Na atom has 11 electron which are arranged in 2,8,1 configuration. To become stable as that of nearest noble gas Ne it need to have 8 electrons in its outermost shell. Hence it looses its outermost electron. Initially it has 11 protons and 11 electrons. Now 1 electron is lost so remaining electrons are 10 but protons remain the same that is 11. Since protons are positive and electrons are negative in charge so positive charge is greater than negative charge.This difference  appear on symbol of element as charge. Hence Na becomes Na ion.  Similarly Cl atom has 17 electrons which are arranged in 2,8,7 configuration. To become stable as that of nearest noble gas Ar it need to have 8 electrons in its outermost shell. Hence it gains 1 electron in...

India holds an important place in the global education industry. The country has more than 1.4 million schools with over 227 million students enrolled and more than 36,000 higher education institutes. India has one of the largest higher education systems in the world. However, there is still a lot of potential for further development in the education system

The power of raising awareness about global education and sustainable development

Educating and Training to Save Lives This first World Tsunami Awareness Day will focus on education and evacuation drills : two areas where UNESCO's Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission has been at the forefront. These two themes come together in the Japanese story " Inamura no Hi ", which tells how a farmer anticipated the 1854 Ansei Nankai earthquake and tsunami, and saved his fellow villagers by burning his entire rice crop to alert them to the danger. The "Inamura no Hi" story exemplifies the power of knowledgeable citizens to save lives. Education, community awareness of tsunami risk and preparedness go hand in hand with the development of Tsunami Warning Systems. After all, a perfect warning will be useless if people do not know what to do in case of an emergency.

Make sure the teachers are well educated, trained, qualified and are a helping hand in achieving the fourth goal of sustainable development " QUALITY EDUCATION"
