In which medium would light have the longest wavelength?

1 answer:

4 0

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!)

Describe what happens to the mass number and the atomic number of a nuclide during alpha decay.

Digiron [165]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: The mass number will be 4 units lower.

Explanation:

Alpha particles are Helium atoms, which have a mass number of 4 and atomic number of 2.

When an alpha particle is released, the original atom loses 2 protons and and 2 neutrons an we can see in the example.

Determine the expected diffraction angle for the first-order diffraction from the (111) set of planes for FCC nickel (Ni) when m

faust18 [17]

Answer:

56°

Explanation:

First calculate $a:$

$a=2 R \sqrt{2}=2(0.1246) \sqrt{2}=0.352 \mathrm{nm}$

The interplanar spacing can be calculated from:

$d_{111}=\frac{a}{\sqrt{1^{2}+1^{2}+1^{2}}}=\frac{0.352}{\sqrt{3}}=0.203 \mathrm{nm}$

The diffraction angle is determined from:

$\sin \theta=\frac{n \lambda}{2 d_{111}}=\frac{1(0.1927)}{2(0.2035)}=0.476$

Solve for $\theta$

$\theta=\sin ^{-1}(0.476)=28^{\circ}$

The diffraction angle is:

$2 \theta=2\left(28^{\circ}\right)=56^{\circ}$

Question 10 OT 20

Airida [17]

Answer:

B) is reduced.

Explanation:

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

Consider the following reactions.

4KI + 2CuCl₂ → 2CuI + I₂ + 4KCl

the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced and it is oxidizing agent.

CO + H₂O → CO₂ + H₂

the oxidation state of carbon is +2 on reactant side and on product side it becomes +4 so carbon get oxidized and it is reducing gent.

Oxidizing agents:

Oxidizing agents oxidize the other elements and itself gets reduced.

Reducing agents:

Reducing agents reduced the other element are it self gets oxidized.

what Is the number of photons in one J of red light (650 nm) greater than, equal to, or less than the number of photons in one J

valentinak56 [21]

For the same amount of energy, the number of photons in red light will be greater than the number of photons in blue light.
This is because the energy carried by a photon is inversely proportional to the wavelength of the photon. A longer wavelength means there is a lower energy in the photons and a shorter wavelength means that there is a higher energy. Therefore, in order for the photons to deliver one joule of energy, more of the red light photons will be required.
