Answer: The answer is C

Explanation:the salt fits the definition of a mineral because it's a naturally occurring compound that has a definite composition and a crystalline structure. It has a crystalline structure because of its repeating pattern

Elements that have atoms with stable valence electron configurations in the ground state are found in
dsp73

Answer:

Group 18, also known as the Noble Gasses

Explanation:

Atoms strive for full stability by gaining or losing electrons to get 8 valence electrons in their valence shell, but Group 18 already has 8 electrons in their valence shell, and are therefore already stable in their ground state.

g A microwave oven heats by radiating food with microwave radiation, which is absorbed by the food and converted to heat. If the
Sliva [168]

Answer:

The total photons required = 5.19 × 10²⁸ photons

Explanation:

Given that:

the radiation wavelength λ= 12.5 cm = 0.125 m

Volume of the container = 0.250 L = 250 mL

The density of water = 1 g/mL

Density = mass /volume

Mass =  Volume ×  Density

Thus; the mass of the water =  250 mL ×  1 g/mL

the mass of the water = 250 g

the specific heat of water s = 4.18 J/g° C

the initial temperature T_1 = 20.0° C

the final temperature T_2 = 99° C

Change in temperature \Delta T = (99-20)° C = 79 ° C

The heat q absorbed during the process = ms \Delta T

The heat q absorbed during the process = 250 g × 4.18 J/g° C × 79° C

The heat q absorbed during the process = 82555 J

The energy of a photon can be represented by the equation :

= hc/λ

where;

h = planck's constant = 6.626 \times 10^{-34} \ J.s

c = velocity of light = 3.0 \times 10^8 \ m/s

=  \dfrac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times 3.0 \times 10^8}{0.125}

= 1.59024 \times 10^{-24} J

The total photons required = Total heat energy/ Energy of a photon

The total photons required = \dfrac{82555 J}{1.59024 \times 10^{-24}J}

The total photons required = 5.19 × 10²⁸ photons
