Which of the following is the best name for CaF2?
2 answers:
Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
When an atom donates electrons to another atom then it results in the formation of a bond known as ionic bond.
For example, atomic number of calcium is 20 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 8, 2. Whereas atomic number of fluorine is 9 and its electronic distribution is 2, 7. So, in order to attain stability calcium loses two electrons and fluorine will gain one electron.
Therefore, calcium will combine with two fluorine atoms resulting in formation of a compound known as calcium fluoride.

Answer:
Explanation:
It is given that,
The number of lines per unit length, N = 900 slits per cm
Distance between the formed pattern and the grating, l = 2.3 m
n the first-order spectrum, maxima for two different wavelengths are separated on the screen by 2.98 mm,
Let d is the slit width of the grating,
For the first wavelength, the position of maxima is given by :
For the other wavelength, the position of maxima is given by :
So,
or
So, the difference between these wavelengths is 14.3 nm. Hence, this is the required solution.
