IgorLugansk [536]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

A. maintain electrical neutrality in the half-cells via migration of ions

Explanation:

Salt bridge -

For an electrochemical reaction , involving an anode and a cathode , both the electrodes are connect via a salt bridge to complete the circuit for the reaction .

One of the very important use of a salt bridge is to maintain the electrical neutrality of the respective half cells , which is achieved by the movement of ions .

Hence , from the given options , the correct option is ( a ) .

) Experimental evidence indicates that the nucleus of an atom
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

A (contains most of the mass of the atom)

Evidence has it that a proton is about 2000 times as massive as an electron.

And there is usually multiple protons and neutrons in the nucleus

From what I just said, you can say that B is wrong

C however is also wrong because protons have a +charge and neutrons are neutrle which means you always have a charge > (greater than) 0

And D is wrong because electrons (which are not in the nucleus) have a neg charge. and protons have a + charge and are in the nucleus

So your answer is A

Hope it helped

what is the maximum number of covalent bonds that an oxygen atom with atomic number 8 can make with hydrogen? question 4 options
Oliga [24]

Maximum number of covalent bonds that an oxygen atom can make with hydrogen is 2.

  • the ground state electronic configuration of oxygen is 2s² 2p⁴ that means it has 6 electrons in its valence shell and require two electrons are required to complete its octate.
  • Two bonds are created when an electron donor atom shares the two needed electrons with oxygen. The ability of two oxygen atoms to share valence electrons results in the creation of a double bond between the two atoms.
  • There are no longer any empty orbitals in the octet of oxygen after it is complete. As a result, it is unable to accept more electrons or create more bonds.

Therefore, Oxygen can only generate two bonds because it needs two additional electrons to complete its octet, after which it will run out of empty orbitals in which to receive additional electrons and create additional bonds.

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

D. As white light passes through a prism , it bends and separates into different colors

Explanation:

When light enters a prism, it experiences a phenomenon called 'refraction'.

Refraction occurs when light crosses the interface between two mediums with different optical density; when this happens, the light bends and also changes speed.

The angle at which the ray of light is refracted into the second medium depends on the optical density of the two mediums, but also on the wavelength of the light.

In particular, longer wavelengths (red color) are refracted the least, while shorter wavelengths (violet color) are refracted the most.

As a result, when white light (consisting of all the colors of visible light) enters into a prism, they different wavelengths are separated: therefore, white light separates into different colors.

So, the correct answer is

D. As white light passes through a prism , it bends and separates into different colors
