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>

¿Cómo se escribe la fórmula molecular (orden de los iones)?
cluponka [151]

Answer:

A la izquierda el catión y a la derecha el anión.

Explanation:

¡Hola!

En este caso, y basado en las normas IUPAC para la escritura de las fórmulas moleculares, es necesario primero escribir el catión a la izquerda, seguido del anión a la derecha, tal y como se muestra en los siguientes ejemplos, recordando que el catión es el ion cargado positivamente y el anión, negativamente:

K^+Cl^-\\\\Ag_2^+(SO_4)^{2-}

Los cuales son cloruro de potasio y sulfato de plata respectivamente. También es necesario tener en cuenta que los metales tienden a ser cationes por su capacidad de perder electrones, mientras que los no metales a ganarlos y por ende resultar como aniones.

¡Un gusto ayudarte!
