Answer:
Uses of various electromagnetic waves depend on their relative energy.
Explanation:
The electromagnetic spectrum is the term used by scientists to describe the entire range of light that exists from radio waves to gamma rays. Electromagnetic waves is a wave of alternating electric and magnetic fields. The electromagnetic spectrum is a continuum of all electromagnetic waves arranged according to frequency and wavelength. The sun, earth, and other bodies radiate electromagnetic energy of varying wavelengths. Electromagnetic energy passes through space at the speed of light in the form of sinusoidal waves. The spectrum of waves is divided into sections based on wavelength. The shortest waves are gamma rays, which have wavelengths of 10^-6 microns or less. The longest waves are radio waves, which have wavelengths of many kilometers.
The application of various electromagnetic waves in science and technology depends on the energy of the wave. Electromagnetic waves that possess very high amount of energy are used in medical diagnosis, treatment of tumors, searching of baggage and detection of flaws in metal casting. Examples of such electromagnetic waves include gamma rays and xrays.
Some part of the electromagnetic spectrum possess energy enough to excite chemical bonds and produce spectra characteristic of certain functional groups in molecules. The ultraviolet and infrared rays fall into this category.
Some portion of the spectrum possesses very low energy and long wavelength and are mostly used for communication, mild medical diagnosis and resonance imaging/spectroscopy. Radio waves fall into this category.

Answer:A mole is an arbitrary number of molecules in a single unit - refer to avogadro's number. Essentially, 1 mole is 6.022x10^23 molecules for ALL molecules or atoms, however one must remember that not all atoms/molecules are the same size, this is where mass comes into play. When you measure out 2 grams of carbon powder, there will be a lot more molecules present than if you weighed out 2 grams of thorium powder; this is because carbon is much smaller - kind of like a car filled with clowns, one given car can hold a lot of small clowns but only a few big ones; so the same volume is occupied but the amount of substance (clowns) varies on their own size. The arbitrary mass (relative to the hydrogen atom) for a molecule is the sum of its atomic components' atomic masses; e. g. C2H6's will have 2x12.00 (carbon) + 6x1.01 (hydrogen) = ~30 grams / mole.
Explanation:
The balanced chemical reaction describing this decomposition is as follows:
<span>4c3h5n3o9 .............> 6N2 + 12CO2 +10H2O + O2
From the periodic table:
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
mass of nitrogen = 14 grams
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
mass of carbon = 12 grams
Therefore:
mass of </span><span>C3H5N3O9 = 3(12) + 5(1) + 3(14) + 9(16) = 227 grams
mass of O2 = 2(16) = 32 grams
From the balanced chemical equation:
4(227) = 908 grams of </span>C3H5N3O9 produce 32 grams of O2. Therefore, to know the amount of oxygen produced from 4.5*10^2 grams <span>C3H5N3O9, all we need to do is cross multiplication as follows:
amount of oxygen = (4.5*10^2*32) / (908) = 15.859 grams</span>
