JAMB Reschedules UTME for Candidates
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has rescheduled the ongoing Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination for candidates who could not sit for the exam on Tuesday because of technical challenges.
The Board made the announcement in a statement on Tuesday in Abuja by the Head, Public Affairs and Protocol, JAMB, Dr Fabian Benjamin.
The statement reads: “Following the announcement, candidates, who for technical reasons could not take the examination, are to print a new examination notification early tomorrow morning, Wednesday, 26th April, 2023, to know their new scheduled sessions.
“It is to be noted that about 100 centres out of the 708 centres participating in the 2023 UTME exercise across the country, experienced technical challenges that prevented their allotted candidates from successfully taking their examination.”
According to the statement, the Board reiterated its determination to deploy world-class assessments in line with global best practices to deliver quality assessments and regretted any inconveniences experienced by candidates and their parents.
The statement further restated that the series of challenges encountered was on account of some novel features deployed by the Board to safeguard the sanctity of the examination by checkmating all incidences of examination misconduct being perpetrated and perpetuated by vested interests.
The Board, therefore, reiterated the commitment of its technical team working round the clock to ensure that tomorrow’s (Wednesday) exercise was devoid of any hitches.
Meanwhile, the Board assures Nigerians that no candidate would be denied the right of taking his/her examination because in case of any challenges experienced, such a candidate would be rescheduled to take the examination in the next available date and space. You can read more here.

What is Isomerism?
Isomerism is the phenomenon in which
more than one compounds have the same chemical formula but different chemical
structures.
Chemical compounds that have identical
chemical formulae but differ in properties and the arrangement of atoms in the
molecule are called isomers.
Therefore, the compounds that exhibit isomerism are known as isomers.
The word “isomer” is derived from the
Greek words “isos” and “meros”, which
mean “equal parts”. This term was coined by the Swedish chemist Jacob Berzelius
in the year 1830.
PROPERTIES OF ISOMERS
The properties of isomers are important
in fields such as chemistry, biochemistry, and pharmacology, where small
structural differences can have significant effects on the properties and
functions of molecules.
Physical properties of isomers
The physical properties of isomers can
vary depending on the structural arrangement of their atoms, and these
differences can be important in various fields such as materials science,
pharmacology, and environmental science.
1.
Melting and boiling points:
Isomers can have different melting and boiling points due to differences in
intermolecular forces. For example, branched alkanes have lower boiling points
than their corresponding straight-chain isomers because of decreased surface
area and weaker van der Waals forces.
CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF ISOMERS
Chemical properties: Isomers can have
different chemical properties such as reactivity and stability. This is because
the different structural arrangements can affect the accessibility and
reactivity of functional groups.
There are two primary types of isomerism, which can be
further categorized into different subtypes. These primary types are Structural Isomerism and Stereoisomerism. The
classification of different types of isomers is illustrated below.
Structural isomerism is commonly referred to as
constitutional isomerism. The functional groups and the atoms in the molecules
of these isomers are linked in different ways. Different structural isomers are
assigned different IUPAC names since they may or may not contain the same
functional group.
The different types of structural isomerism are discussed
in this subsection.
·
It
is also known as skeletal isomerism.
·
The
components of these isomers display differently branched structures.
·
Commonly,
chain isomers differ in the branching of carbon
· An
example of chain isomerism can be observed in the compound C5H12, as
illustrated below.
This type of isomerism arises in compounds having the
same chemical formula but different orientations of the atoms belonging to the
molecule in three-dimensional space. The compounds that exhibit stereoisomerism
are often referred to as stereoisomers. This phenomenon can be further
categorized into two subtypes. Both these subtypes are briefly described in
this subsection.
