Refraction is the phenomenon of change in the speed of light when the light when passes from the medium of one optical density to a medium of another optical density. The light rays also show a bending when passing through the interface of such a medium.

<h3>What causes wave refraction?</h3>

Refraction is the bending of waves due to a change in speed as they travel through different media. Waves may accelerate or decelerate when they go obliquely from one medium to another. The waves will bend more dramatically as their speed changes.

<h3>What characteristics does a wave have?</h3>

The following characteristics of waves:

  • Refraction is the bending of waves as they move from one medium to another due to a change in their speed.
  • Waves may speed up or slow down as they transition from one medium to another at an angle.

Answer:

60 moles of NaF

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

Al(NO3)3 + 3NaF —> 3NaNO3 + AlF3

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of NaF reacted to produce 1 mole of AlF3.

Therefore, Xmol of NaF will react to produce 20 moles of AlF3 i.e

Xmol of NaF = 3 x 20

Xmol of NaF = 60 moles

Therefore, 60 moles of NaF are required to produce 20 moles of AlF3.

When writing an electron configuration for a transition metal, what is the last orbital type to be filled – an s, p, d or f orbi
Black_prince [1.1K]
It would be d.

Reason being said...

the electron configuration normally goes like this...

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2....

until you hit the transition metals..remember those have a special rule..

even though you are in the 4 sublevels for the orbitals ... it goes down 1

Making it 3d..(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10)

Going on...

at 5s2 then, 4d1, 4d2, 4d3, 4d4, etc..

at 6s2 then, 5d1, 6d2, 6d3, 6d4, etc..

Thus, D orbital is your answer.

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Fossils are the some traces or portions of the animals or plants, buried and preserved from past in rocks, sediments or ice.

Explanation:

                                  Correct match  is as follows-

  1. Mold and cast fossils-  An organism is buried in sediment after it dies.The hard part of organism leave behind a empty space imprinted in the rock. Later sediments and minerals fill the space and harden to make the original copy of the organisms.
  2. Carbon film fossils- An organism buried in sediments gets squeezed and heated inside the earth , leaving behind a thin carbon outline of the organism on a rock.
  3. Amber fossil-  An organism covered in tree resin or tree sap , which then hardens with the body of the organisms preserved inside.
  4. Ice fossil- An organism dies in a cold place on earth , its body becomes frozen and covered in layers of ice . The hard and soft part of the body may be preserved.
