Answer: Gamma rays

Explanation:

Electromagnetic wave is defined as the wave which is associated with both electrical and magnetic component associated with them. They can travel in vacuum as well and travel with the speed of light.

The Electromagnetic spectrum involves gamma rays , X rays, ultra violet rays, visible rays, infrared rays, micro waves and radio waves which are arranged in order of increasing wavelength and decreasing frequency.  

The relationship between wavelength and frequency of the wave follows the equation:

\nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}

where,

\nu = frequency of the wave

c = speed of light  

\lambda = wavelength of the wave

From the above relation, it is visible that wavelength and frequency follow inverse relation.

Thus the gamma rays have the shortest wavelength.

In one sample of a compound of copper and oxygen, 3.12g of the compound contains 2.50g of copper and the remainder is oxygen. Ca
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

% composition O = 19.9%

% composition Cu = 80.1%

Explanation:

Given data:

Total mass of compound = 3.12 g

Mass of copper = 2.50 g

Mass of oxygen = 3.12 - 2.50 = 0.62 g

% composition = ?

Solution:

Formula:

<em>% composition = ( mass of element/ total mass)×100</em>

% composition Cu = (2.50 g / 3.12 g)×100

% composition Cu = 0.80 ×100

% composition Cu = 80.1%

For oxygen:

<em>% composition = ( mass of element/ total mass)×100</em>

% composition O = (0.62 g / 3.12 g)×100

% composition O = 0.199 ×100

% composition O = 19.9%

Maybe her old shoes had soft worn out bottoms and she slips in them. So her new shoes had more grip than her old ones so they kept her from falling.

How do you prepare 1 liter of a 0.5 molar glucose solution?
riadik2000 [5.3K]
Answer: 90 grams

0.5 molar of glucose means 0.5mole glucose for 1 liter of water. Since we want to made 1L of solution, then the amount of glucose needed is: 0.5mole/l x 1l= = 0.5mole

Glucose molecular weight is 180, then 0,5 mol of glucose is= 0.5mole x 180 grams/mole= 90 grams.
