Why is electromagnetic radiation a transverse wave?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Yuki888 [10]1 year ago
6 0

Since the direction of particle displacement in electromagnetic waves is also perpendicular to the direction of motion, generating the waveform of visible light and other forms of electromagnetic radiation, they are also transverse waves.

In a transverse wave, the displacement is perpendicular to the direction of motion (at an angle of 90 degrees Celsius). The direction of displacement (up and down) in the case of the ocean wave is perpendicular to the direction of wave motion (horizontally along the water), making it a transverse wave.

How far a particle has moved from its original starting position, or, in the case of an ocean wave, how high or low the water is, is measured by its displacement or amplitude.

A high concentration of water has ____________ dissolved particles than a low water concentration.
N76 [4]

A high concentration of water has <u>fewer</u> dissolved particles than a low water concentration.

Most cell membranes are not as easily permeable to many dissolved compounds as water is. There is a quick and constant flow of water. From one area with less dissolved matter to another with more, water transports NET. Or, if you want, from an area with a lot of water to one with little water. The terms isotonic, hypotonic, and hypertonic refer to the concentration of dissolved material. In a medium, such as the extracellular fluid, every distinct material has a concentration gradient that is unique from the gradients of other substances. Every substance will diffuse in line with that gradient as well.

Magnesium has three naturally occurring isotopes with masses of 23.99 amuamu, 24.99 amuamu, and 25.98 amuamu and natural abundan
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

24.309 g/mol

Explanation:

To get the atomic mass, all we have to do is calculate with the masses of the three isotope, the real quantity present, taking account of the percent and then, do a sum of these three values. Like a pondered media.

For the first isotope:

23.99 * (78.99/100) = 18.95 g/mol

For the second isotope:

24.99 * (10/100) = 2.499 g/mol

For the last isotope:

25.98 * (11.01/100) = 2.86 g/mol

Now, let's sum all three together

AW = 18.95 + 2.499 + 2.86

AW = 24.309 g/mol

How is an elements outer electron configuration related to its position in the periodic table?
Umnica [9.8K]
Well, if you look at group 1 of the periodic table, you will notice a thrend. All elements in group 1 have 1 valence / outer electron. Then you look at period 2, 3, 4 and so on, you will see that the group number corresponds the number of valence/ outershell electrons. Hence, the group determines the electron(s) on the outershell.
