About Bill of Exchange

The Negotiable Instruments Act 1881 governs the provisions for bills of exchange. According to Section 5 of this act, the bill of exchange is defined as. A bill of exchange means a binding agreement by one party to pay a fixed amount of money to another party as on a specified date or on-demand. In other words, it is a written negotiable instrument containing an unconditional order to pay a specified sum of money to a certain person or to the bearer of the instrument, as directed in the instrument by the maker. The bill of exchange is either payable on demand or after a specified period.

 

Meaning of Bill of Exchange

A bill of exchange is a document that is drawn by one person and directs another person to pay another person a specific sum of money. If the individual who is supposed to pay the sum accepts the bill of exchange, it is of practical use.

 

Features of the bill of exchange

It must be in writing. No verbal note would consider as valid.

It must contain an order to pay a certain sum of money and not just a request.

The order should not have any condition.

It must be dated and should be properly stamped, duly signed by the maker (the creditor), and accepted by the drawee (the debtor).

The money must be payable to a definite person or to his order to the bearer of the instrument.

It must contain the date by which the money should be paid. A fixed date for the amount to be paid must be mentioned.

Natural magnets are rocks that naturally draw iron. Non-magnetic materials include things like wood, rubber, coins, feathers, leather, etc. that are not drawn to iron. Magnet characteristics It pulls magnetic materials, such as iron. The magnet's two ends are referred to as its poles. The magnet's diametrically opposed poles are drawn together.

What are Noble Gases? Example and noble gases name

What are Noble Gases? Example and noble gases name Noble Gases Noble gases, sometimes known as inert gases or erosions, are part of the modern periodic table's 18th group. This group is made up of the following individuals: Helium is a kind of gas (He) Neon (Ne) Argon is a gas (Ar) Krypton  (Kr) Xenon is a kind of xenon gas (Xe) Radon is a gas that can cause cancer (Rn) Noble gases exist in a gaseous state under typical temperature and pressure conditions. Because all noble gases have stable electronic structures, they have very little chemical reactivity. They are monoatomic gases that do not readily form molecules. 'ns2np6' represents the basic electrical configuration of noble gases. As a result, noble gases' outermost valence shells can be deemed 'complete.' The chemical inertness of the group of 18 elements is due to this. Because of the stability of certain elements, these gases form a group. These stable elements' crusts are totally filled.
