TMS stands for Tetramethylsilane
Formula : Si(CH₃)₄
It is used as internal standard for chemical shift
In TMS all the four methyl groups are similar thus all the 12 hydrogen are chemically equivalent. They will show proton NMR at same level and which will appear as a singlet.
We have defined this singlet to be as reference set as zero.
Generally the other organic compounds show chemical shift downfield.So have positive chemical shift with respect to TMS shift.
A volumetric flask is used to contain a predetermined volume of substance and only measures that volume, for example 250 ml.
Conical flasks can be used to measure the volume of substances but the accuracy they provide is usually up to 10ml. Conical flasks are used in titrations, reactions where the liquid may boil, and reactions which involve stirring.
Pippettes are of two types, volumetric and graduated. Pippettes are used where high accuracy is required and volumetric pippettes come in as little as 1 ml. Pippettes are usually used in titrations.
Graduated cylinders come in a wide variety of sizes and their accuracy can be down to as much as 1 ml. They are used to contain liquids.

Answer:
nuclear energy is the cleanest and safest energy source we have available and i agree with this statement for following reasons:
1. Nuclear power is generated by a controlled chain reaction involving the splitting of atoms. A modern nuclear power plant uses the intense heat created by this reaction to heat water and create steam, which turns a turbine and generates electricity. Whereas a coal-fired plant heats water by burning coal, a nuclear plant heats it by splitting atoms. This process is called nuclear fission.
2. Nuclear fission, in simple terms, occurs when an atom splits in two, releasing a massive amount of energy and several subatomic particles called neutrons. These neutrons, in turn, hit and split other atoms, beginning and sustaining the chain reaction. Reactor operators control this reaction in a variety of ways and thus regulate the amount of heat generated and energy produced.
3. The raw fuel for this process is the metal uranium, which must be enriched before it can be used for producing energy in commercial reactors. Enrichment is necessary because mined uranium ore is around 99.3 percent uranium-238, which, in today’s commercial power plants, does not readily split upon exposure to neutrons from the fission chain reaction, and thus makes poor fuel. The other 0.7 percent of mined uranium is uranium-235, which makes excellent fuel. The number refers to the atomic mass, or the total mass of protons and neutrons that make up the atomic nucleus. This difference in mass of the same element makes them two different isotopes of uranium. The enrichment process consists essentially of increasing the percentage of uranium-235 by decreasing the percentage (via removal) of uranium-238.
