Karnataka. Data Entry of the Printed Kannada characters is very difficult as well as time consuming requires more man power to do the task. Thus idea behind our projects is to convert printed Kannada character into editable file very easily by adopting the OCR Mechanism. Character Segmentation is a module which is initial stage of the printed character recognition. Kannada is a widely spoken language of South India and Native to Karnataka‚ Kannadigas use to speak‚ read and write. Most of the Govt offices

the form of a metal ion affect the rate of reaction in an iodide clock reaction with potassium peroxydisulphate ions? Background When peroxydisulfate ions (S2O82-) react with iodide ions (I-) in the presence of a starch indicator‚ they produce a dark blue solution. Reaction (1) S2O82- + 3I- I3- + 2 SO42- (peroxydisulfate ion) (iodide ion) (iodine ion) (sulfate ion) To determine the rate law for this reaction a series of changes in the concentration of

In order to prepare the iodine solution titrant‚ exactly 50 mL of 0.01 M KIO3‚ exactly 20 mL of 10% KI solution‚ and exactly 25 mL of 0.3 M H2SO4 was transferred into a 100 mL volumetric flask using a volumetric pipette. The volumetric flask was then filled to the mark with distilled water. The flask was covered with Parafilm and inverted to mix. The next part of the experiment was to determine the Vitamin C in a solution of known concentration. Observations of the Vitamin C sample and the amount

Iodine: Function of Iodine: Iodine is a mineral found in food. This mineral is needed to make thyroid hormones. The hormones created are used to control the body’s metabolism and lots of other important functions. The thyroid hormones are also used for bone and brain development during pregnancy and infancy. This mineral is important for everyone‚ especially infants and women who are pregnant. The amount of Iodine needed for your daily intake recommended of the mineral depends on your age:

Iodine deficiency is a major threat to the health and development of the world‚ predominantly among toddlers and pregnant women in low-income countries. It is a significant public health problem in 130 countries and affects 740 million people. An estimated one-third of the world’s population is currently susceptible to the risk of iodine deficiency. Iodine is a vital nutrient for the proper functioning of the thyroid gland‚ which regulates growth and metabolism. Iodine deficiency is the primary cause

INTRODUCTION Iodine deficiency disorders are still very much prevalent in the world today. Two billion people‚ estimated by the WHO‚ still lack a sufficient level of iodine in their diets which leads to a range of disorders known as iodine deficiency disorders (IDD). So what is iodine? Iodine is an essential micronutrient in the diet which is used by the thyroid gland (located in the throat) to produce thyroid hormones which help control the body’s metabolism. The two most important thyroid
