Photon is a packet of light energy. Both photon and electron contribute mostly to the quantum mechanics of the atom. Every particle in quantum mechanical model is explained as dual natured, that is has both particle and wave nature. Photons exhibit wave light properties like diffraction, interference, etc.,At the same time they exhibit particle properties like having a definite momentum and position. Similarly electrons and other microscopic particles exhibit both particle and wave nature.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

Both photons and electrons display particle and wave-like behaviour.

Temperate deciduous trees lose their leaves in Fall. Explain why trees in temperate rainforest and tropical rainforest don’t los
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

So trees in temperate don't lose their leaves because the weather events aren't harsh enough.

Trees in tropical rainforest don't lose their leaves because they are a different type of tree known as evergreens that are green all year round.

Explanation:

Ok so first we'll define some things

Deciduous Trees=  Trees that lose all of their leaves for part of the year.

Trees shed their leaves trees to try and survive harsh weather events.

Temperate deciduous trees lose their leaves in fall to better survive the winter conditions of extreme cold and reduced daylight.

Temperate rainforests = An area that doesn't experience extremely cold or extremely hot temperatures or what we would call harsh weather events.

Broad-leaved trees in tropical rainforests are known evergreen, they are known as this as they are green all year round.

2.0 mol of gas occupy 44.8 l at a temperature of 0°c. what is the pressure of the gas
MArishka [77]

The pressure of the gas is 1.0 bar.

<em>pV</em> = <em>nRT</em>

<em>T</em> = (0 + 273.15) K = 273.15 K

<em>p</em> = (<em>nRT</em>)/<em>V</em> = (2.0 mol × 0.083 14 bar·L·K⁻¹mol⁻¹ × 273.15 K)/44.8 L = 1.0 bar
