Answer:

Explanation:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e-

Mass= 9.10938356×10-31 Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

He constructed the glass tube and create vacuum in it. He applied electric current between electrodes. He noticed that a ray of particles coming from cathode to wards positively charged anode. This ray was cathode ray.

Properties of cathode ray:

The ray is travel in straight line.

The cathode ray is independent of composition of cathode.

When electric field is applied cathode ray is deflected towards the positively charged plate.

Hence it was consist of negatively charged particles.

Oksana_A [137]
Applying 1st law of thermodynamics:
Q = Delta U + WB 
WB is the workdone by the system
<span>WB = 346 J </span>
As,
<span>Delta U = ( m ) ( CV ) ( T2 - T1 ) </span>

<span>CV = ( Delta U ) / ( m ) ( T2 - T1 ) 
</span>Putting the values in equation:

<span>CV = ( 8485 J ) / ( 80.0 g ) ( 225 C - 25 C ) </span>

<span>CV = 0.5303 J / g - C degree </span>
Now putting in original equation:
<span>Q = Delta U + WB </span>

<span>Q = ( 8485 ) + ( 346 ) = 8831 J
8831J is the specific heat of the gas</span>

Which of the following statements is true about the relationships between photon energy, wavelength, and frequency?
iris [78.8K]

Answer: The Answer is A.

Explanation:

The amount of energy is directly proportional to the photon's electromagnetic frequency and thus, equivalently, is inversely proportional to the wavelength. The higher the photon's frequency, the higher its energy. Equivalently, the longer the photon's wavelength, the lower its energy.

Hope this Helps!

Petrol does not catch fire on its own at room temperature. Give Reason
tino4ka555 [31]
Because room temperature is below the ignition temperature of petrol. At this temperature energy in the form of heat, flame, or electric spark is needed to start the reaction.

How does water move on its own concentration gradient?
kifflom [539]
Are you speaking of a density gradient, in which a more concentrated solution moves below a less concentrated solution?

In that case, the more concentrated solution has the greater density, and it will gradually sink below the less concentrated solution. 

In the same way, a stone will sink in water, which is less dense than the stone.
