The formation of a coordination bond was revealed by the downfield chemical shift of the complex in the NMR data as compared to the ligand. The UV results were corroborated by molar conductance data, which demonstrated their non-electrolytic character.

Here, solar backpack, farm hat, and grass cutter are designed and fabricated to utilize solar energy for recharging storage systems as well as being operated directly in the daylight. Solar powered charging backpack uses a solar panel of 5 W/17 V capacity at the front side of the backpack with a 5 V output voltage which can charge mobile phone or rechargeable battery. The results clearly showed that it is capable to charge the phone and the charging level of mobile phone successfully raised from 22% to 88% within 5 hours by putting it in direct sunlight on cloudy weather. This article also explained solar farm hat which is very simple but effective for our farmers. Light weight solar powered fan (1.92 W/12 V DC) placed on the top of the hat which is used to cool their face. Lighting (4 ultra-bright 3 V LEDs) and battery charging system are also attached in this system.

Because of the readily available raw materials and the controlled reaction conditions, this method is widely used in industry. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to characterize the synthetic manganese oxide. Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) Infrared reveals that the O-Mn-O vibrational mode occurs in pure manganese oxide at wavelengths between 600 and 500 cm-1. The chemical composition was obtained by EDX analysis and confirmed the presence of Mn and O in the sample. Experimental optimization was done for the manganese oxide precipitation conditions.

It is left unattended during the off-season, wasting a lot of potential solar power that could produce green electricity. To address this, an integrated farming model can be established, utilizing existing solar pump facilities for crop cultivation, rearing Black Bengal Goats, and native fish farming. This diversified approach combines sustainable energy solutions with solar irrigation, generating both agricultural products and electricity while maintaining agricultural land for cultivation and promotion of clean energy production.
