Clay vs Sand

Clay and Sand differ in their particle size. The clay is a stiff, sticky fine-grained earth, whereas sand is a loose granular substance.
Diode vs Resistor

A diode is a type of electrical device that only allows current to move through it in one direction. It consists of an N-type semiconductor and a P-type semiconductor that are placed together. A resistor is an electric component that is used to provide resistance to current in the circuit. These are mostly used intentionally to produce heat or light.
Diode vs Transistor

A diode is a type of electrical device that only allows current to move through it in one direction. It consists of an N-type semiconductor and a P-type semiconductor that are placed together. A transistor is a triode that exists in two forms – either in an n type semiconductor sandwiched between two p type semiconductors, or in a p type semiconductor sandwiched between two n type semiconductors.
Axis vs Equator

The axis is an imaginary line through both the north and south poles on which the Earth rotates. The equator is from the point that the latitude is calculated. In other words, it is the 0° latitude line.
Mitosis vs Cleavage

Mitosis is a type of cell division in which the cell nucleus divides into two identical nuclei. Cleavage refers to the process of division of cytoplasm (cytokinesis) in the animal cells. Cleavage in the animal cells takes place after the telophase of mitosis.
Axis vs Orbit

The axis is an imaginary line through both north and south poles about from which the Earth rotates. An orbit is a curved path that is taken by an object around a star, planet, moon, etc.
Integer vs Float

Generally, Integers can be described as whole numbers meaning that they do not have any fractional parts and float describes a number that can be only written in a decimal number system only.
Chemical vs Nuclear Reaction

Chemical reaction is a process in which atoms of an element rearrange themselves to form a new substance. Nuclear reaction is a process in which the structure of the nucleus of an atom is changed with the release of energy.
Chemical vs Petrochemical Engineering

Chemical Engineering is the science of applying chemistry to industry. Petrochemical Engineering is the science of dealing with the chemical products derived from petroleum.
Real Number vs Rational Number

A real number is a number that can take any value on the number line. They can be any of the rational and irrational numbers. Rational number is a number that can be expressed in the form of a fraction but with a non-zero denominator. Rational numbers are a subset of the real numbers.
Real Number vs Integer

A real number is a number that can take any value on the number line. They can be any of the rational and irrational numbers. Rational number is a number that can be expressed in the form of a fraction but with a non-zero denominator. Rational numbers are a subset of the real numbers.
Polar vs Non-Polar

The arrangement of atoms in a molecule helps determine its polarity. A molecule is said to be polar, if it has a positive and a negative charge. A non-polar molecule is a molecule with less charge.
Real Number vs Complex Number

A real number is a number that can take any value on the number line. They can be any of the rational and irrational numbers. Complex numbers are the numbers that exist in the form of a+ib, where a and b denotes real numbers and i denotes an imaginary part.
Integer vs Whole Number

An integer refers to a whole number meaning that it is not in the form of a fraction. Integers comprise of whole numbers as well as their opposites. Whole numbers are natural numbers including zero.
Atomic Mass vs Atomic Weight

Atomic mass is defined as the total mass of protons, neutrons and electrons present in an atom of an element. Atomic weight is defined as the ratio of average mass of the atom present in an element. It is calculated to 1/12th of the mass of carbon atom. It is also referred to as relative atomic mass.
