Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

A mechanical wave is a wave of energy that can travel long distances and could go through characteristics of matter such as solids, liquids, and gases. Mechanical waves can also travel through vacuums. A good example of a mechanical wave would be sound, sound is a wave spread through a object and can go through different types of matter. Which is why your answer is option D "sunshine." Light cannot go through a vacuum while sounds, and water can.

Hope this helps.

Which of the following would you predict to have a positive value for º ?
alexdok [17]
Given:

AgCl (s) ===> Ag+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)
- negative entropy

H2O(g) ===> H2O(l)
- positive entropy

2Na (s) + Cl2 (g) ===> 2NaCl (s)
- positive entropy

Br2(l) ===> Br2 (s)
-positive entropy

They are identified to have positive or negative values of entropy based on the phases of the reactants and products.

Why does increasing the temperature of two reactants in solution make a
gogolik [260]
The two molecules will only react if they have enough energy. By heating the mixture, you are raising the energy levels of the molecules involved in the reaction. Increasing temperature also means the molecules are moving around faster and will therefore "bump" into each other more often.
