In which medium would light have the longest wavelength?

Chemistry

Color implies visible light, so to answer your question: red light has the longest wavelength (~620 - 740 nm). However, there also exists light with even longer wavelengths that is not visible to the human eye, from infrared light to radio waves (with wavelengths that are meters long!)

What is the percentage composition of carbon and hydrogen in ethane(c2h6,molecular mass 30.0)<br>​
My name is Ann [436]

Answer

% of C in C2H6= (2×12)/30×100=80%

% of H in C2H6= (3×2)/30×100=20%

Explanation:

2C+3H2-C2H6

nC=12, nH=1, nC2H6=30

2moles of C-1mole of C2H6

3moles of H-1 mole of C2H6

% of C in C2H6= (2×12)/30×100=80%

% of H in C2H6= (3×2)/30×100=20%

How have ideas about the atom changed in the last two centureies?
dsp73
In the past a scientist named dalton produced an atomic theory. There were certain problems regarding his views. So, later on scientists like chadwick, rutherford and thompson added some fresh light for the real identification of the atom.
dalton said the atom was the smallest unit and it CANNOT BE DIVIDED ANY FURTHER.
NOTE... this was renected with the discovery of the proton, neutron and electron as the sub atomic particles.

Disodium inosinate  is the disodium salt of inosinic acid with the chemical formula C10H11N4Na2O8P. It is used as a food additive and often found in instant noodles, potato chips, and a variety of other snacks. Although it can be obtained from bacterial fermentation of sugars, it is often commercially prepared from animal sources.

A gas with a volume of 4.0L at a pressure of 205kPa is allowed to expand to a volume of 12.0L. What is the pressure in the conta
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

68.3 kilo Pascal is the pressure in the container.

Explanation:

To calculate the new pressure , we use the equation given by Boyle's law. This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.

The equation given by this law is:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1\text{ and }V_1 are initial pressure and volume.

P_2\text{ and }V_2 are final pressure and volume.

We are given:

P_1=205kPa\\V_1=4.0 L\\P_2=?\\V_2=12.0 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

P_2=\frac{P_1V_1}{V_2}

=\frac{205 kPa\times 4.0 L}{12.0 L}=68.3 kPa

68.3 kilo Pascal is the pressure in the container.

Explain in terms of atomic structure why the atomic radius of K is larger than that of Na
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Potassium (K) has a larger average atomic radius (220 pm) than sodium (Na) does (180 pm). The potassium atom has an extra electron shell compared to the sodium atom, which means its valence electrons are further from the nucleus, giving potassium a larger atomic radius. The ionic radius increases in a particular group on moving from top to bottom due to increase in the principle energy shell though the number or electrons in the valence shell remain the same
