Quantum computing is different from classical computing. It is based on quantum mechanics principles, utilizing the attributes such as entanglement and superposition. The significant difference between a quantum computer and a classical computer is the ability to process information astonishingly faster. This is possible due to the quantum entanglement concept. Interests in the quantum entanglement concept have been exponentially growing over the years. In the last decade, significant progress in implementations of quantum computation in quantum information has been achieved. This study selected secondary resource indexed literature from several databases with specific keywords in almost a century. In this paper, quantum computing and its application is presented along with the essence of quantum entanglement role in quantum computing. This study will provide a general understanding of quantum computing and its application and quantum entanglement.

Quantum computing plays a major role in modern computation. It can perform operations exponentially faster when compared to classical computation. It has applications in various areas like secure communication, drug design, artificial intelligence, cyber security, etc. Thus, the researchers and students are showing interest to perform experiments in quantum computing to design novel architectures. But to learn/understand quantum computing, one should have strong knowledge of its basics. Because quantum computing performs operations at the atomic level, so the learners need to understand basic concepts like Qubits, superposition, quantum gates, etc. This chapter gives a clear idea about the basic concepts of quantum computing like Qubits, superposition, entanglement, and quantum gates.
