Answer:

Another name for light is ¨Electromagnetic Radiation, luminous energy, and/or radiant energy.¨

Explanation:

Light is the electromagnetic radiation that´s capable of causing a visual sensation and has wavelengths from about 380 to about 780 nanometres. Electromagnetic radiation includes Radio Waves, Microwaves <u>(used in microwaves)</u>, Infrared Radiation <u>(heat)</u>, Visible Light <u>(the colors we see)</u>, Ultraviolet <u>(the UV radiation that causes sunburns)</u>, X-Rays <u>(used in medical X-Rays)</u>, and Gamma Rays <u>(which can be used to treat cancer)</u>. Light waves are transverse waves because they only travel east or west, but their crests and troughs face north and south (if desplayed on a coordinate grid). They wouldn´t be longitudinal waves because these waves don´t have vertical crests and troughs.

I hope this helps!

When 1.5 grams of magnesium burns, how many grams of magnesium oxide will be formed?
SashulF [63]
The balanced chemical reaction for this would be written as:

2Mg + O2 = 2MgO

We use this reaction and the amount of the reactant given to calculate for the amount of magnesium oxide that is produced. We do as follows:

1.5 g Mg (1 mol / 24.31 g) ( 2 mol MgO / 2 mol Mg ) (40.30 g /1 mol ) = 2.49 g MgO produced

A large highway barrier is 1 meter wide, by 1 meter tall, by 2 meters long.
Romashka [77]

Answer:

when mass is  1×10⁴ Kg then density is 5 g/cm³.

when mass is 104 Kg then density is 5.2 × 10⁻² g/ cm³.

Explanation:

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

Symbol:

The symbol used for density is called rho. It is represented by ρ. However letter D can also be used to represent the density.

Given data:

mass = 1×10⁴ Kg

volume= w ×l× h = 1×2× 1 = 2 m³

density = ?

first of all we will convert the given volume meter cube to cm³:

we know that  

2×1000000 = 2 × 10⁶ cm³

Now we will convert the mass into gram.

1 Kg = 1000 g

1×10⁴ × 1000 = 1 ×10⁷ g

Now we will put the values in the formula,

d = m/v

d = 1 ×10⁷ g / 2×10⁶ cm³

d = 0.5 × 10¹ g/cm³

   or

d = 5 g/cm³

If mas is 104 Kg:

104 × 1000 = 104000 g

d= m/v

d = 104000 g / 2×10⁶ cm³

d= 52000 ×10⁻⁶ g/ cm³

d= 5.2 × 10⁻² g/ cm³

How many moles of water are produced from 15 moles of oxygen?
Grace [21]

Answer:

30 moles

Explanation:

Water is H2O, meaning there is 2 Hydrogen atoms and 1 Oxygen atom. Oxygen is O2, because it is a diatomic molecule. (Hydrogen is also a diatomic molecule, so H2)

The equation, balanced, would have to be: 2H2 + O2 -----> 2H2O

I multiply 15 moles O2 by the molar ratio of (hydrogen/oxygen)

15 mol. O2 *  (2 mol. H2/1 mol O2) = 30 moles of water
