The energy<span> per </span>photon<span> is proportional to the </span>frequency<span> of the radiation when considered as waves, ie inversely proportional to the </span>wavelength. Double the wavelength<span>, halve the </span>photon energy<span>. This means that long </span>wavelength<span> radiation (radio waves) has low </span>photon energy<span> and so does not penetrate matter.</span>
Answer:
group 1 and are called Alkali metals. Similarly, very active non-metals are placed in group 17
Explanation:
<span>The relationship between the number of carbon atoms and boiling point is inversely proportional. In the alkane series of hydrocarbons, as the number of carbon atoms decreases, the normal boiling point of the compounds decreases. The reason behind this is that longer chains of molecules require more energy to separate the bonds while shorter chains or molecules with lower number of carbon atoms require less energy to break away from each other. Thus, low carbon molecules have lower boiling point.</span>
