Answer:The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Mechanical wave is a wave that produce from the oscillation of matter and transfer energy  through the medium.They are incapable of moving through vacuum.

Electromagnetic wave is a wave composed of two vectors vibrating perpendicular to each other in the same direction in which wave is moving.The two vectors are electric field and magnetic field.They are capable of travelling through vacuum.

Light wave is an electromagnetic wave.Electromagnetic waves can easily travel through space. Where as sound is a mechanical wave which requires medium to travel.

Hence, correct answer is option C.

<span>C) Sound is a mechanical wave and needs a medium to travel through while light is an electromagnetic wave. 

There is no air for the sound waves to travel, therefore, no sound waves being transmitted. </span>

A spectrophotometer measures the transmittance or the absorbance, or both, of a particular wavelength of light after it has pass
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:Answer: The step that is NOT necessary to complete before a cuvette is placed into the spectrophotometer is option B (Write, in ink, either sample or blank on the side of the cuvette to keep track of them)

Explanation: spectrophotometer is an instrument used to measure the light intensity absorbed after being passed through a solution. Before the absorbance of the sample solution, a solvent solution called blank is used for the calibration of the machine and this blank solvent is placed in a cuvette. The procedure usually comes first before the main sample is processed. Therefore there is no need to

Write, in ink, either sample or blank on the side of the cuvette to keep track of them. This is so since sample and blank is not absorbed at the same time by the machine.

Balancing Chemical Equation<br> Na+Br2=NaBr
solniwko [45]

Answer:

2Na + Br2 = 2NaBr

Explanation:

In order to balance a chemical equation you make the make sure both sides have the same number of atoms on each side, you do this by multiplying on both sides as if it was a algebraic equation.

Na+ Br2 = NaBr

Na × 2 = Na2

Na × 2 = Na2

Br × 2 = Br2

2Na + Br2 = 2NaBr

Hope this helps.

Galena, a mineral of lead, is a compound of the metal with sulfur. Analysis shows that a 2.34-g sample of galena contains 2.03 g
dolphi86 [110]

The mass of sulfur in the sample is 0.31g

To calculate mass of sulfur in sample: given that amount galena is 2.34g and mass of lead is 2.03 g as galena contain both lead and sulfur the mass of sulfur = mass of galena- mass of lead , that is, 2.34- 2.03=0.31g.The molecular mass is a algebraic sum of atomic mass of each element in the compound thus the mass of the compound can be obtained by adding atomic of each element. Lead(II) sulphide occurs naturally as the mineral galena, often known as lead glance (PbS). It is a significant source of silver and the most significant lead ore.
