Answer:

Wave

Explanation:

The dual nature of light is manifested through its behavior as a particle and as a wave depending on the experimental set-up.

Here, a diffraction grating is an optical component which splits falling on it, into characteristic wavelengths. The grating equation is given as:

n\lambda =2dsin\theta

where n = diffraction order 1,2,3...

λ=wavelength of light

d=distance between the grooves (lines) on the grating

θ=dispersion angle

since the wavelength of light (λ, in nanometers) is comparable to the length of the medium with which the light interacts which in this case is the value of 'd'; the light is treated as a wave.

Situations where the wavelength of light is not comparable with the length scale of the interaction medium, light is treated as a particle.

Answer:

A particle

Explanation:

Modern quantum theory holds that light has both wave-like and particle-like properties. When the length scales involved are large compared to the wavelengths of light (ex., forming images with thin lenses), the

particle nature of light dominates.

Which new diagnosis would prompt the provider to discontinue a prn order for magnesium hydroxide? group of answer choices renal
dusya [7]

Renal failure is the new diagnosis that the provider would prompt to discontinue a PRN order for magnesium hydroxide.

<h3>What is Renal failure?</h3>

Renal failure is a special condition where the person is unable to manage the function of the kidney organ.

The magnesium hydroxide may cause renal failure because this salt must be eliminated by the kidney and therefore it may trigger health complications.

In conclusion, renal failure is the new diagnosis that the provider would prompt to discontinue a PRN order for magnesium hydroxide.

Which color of light has the greatest energy
ozzi

Answer:

violet

Explanation:

Waves with a short wavelength have the most energy. Red waves have a relatively long wavelength (in the 700 nm range), and violet waves are much shorter - roughly half that. Because violet waves have the shortest wavelength of the visible light spectrum, they carry the most energy (google)

PSYCHO15rus [73]

[H_{3}O^{+}] = 0.00770 M

The equilibrium equation representing the dissociation of FCH_{2}COOH

FCH_{2}COOH(aq) + H_{2}O (l)    FCH_{2}COO^{-}(aq)+ H_{3}O^{+}(aq)

Given [H_{3}O^{+}] = 0.00770 M

Let the initial concentration of acid be x and change y

So y = [H_{3}O^{+}] =[FCH_{2}COO^{-}] = 0.00770 M

pK_{a} = 2.59K_{a} = 10^{-2.59}   = 0.00257 M

K_{a} = \frac{(0.00770 M)(0.00770 M)}{x - 0.00770}

0.00257 = \frac{0.00005929}{x - 0.00770}

0.00257 x - 0.00001979 = 0.00005929

x = 0.031 M

Therefore, initial concentration of the weak acid is <u>0.031 M</u>
