How do crickets make sound from your their leg right?

Chemistry

At night, one of the many sounds outside is the noise coming from crickets. This noise is actually called "chirping." Contrary to popular belief, chirping is not the result of crickets rubbing their legs together and not all crickets are able to chirp.

Physical Process

Chirping is only done by male crickets to attract the attention of female crickets. The left wing of a male cricket is ribbed, with 50 to 300 ridges. This surface is called the file. The top part of the right wing is called the scraper. When the left wing is raised to a 45-degree angle and the scraper part of the right wing is rubbed against it, it results in a chirping sound. The technical name for this action is stridulation.

Why Crickets Make Noise

Crickets are nocturnal, so they chirp at night. This is the reason we never hear this noise during the daytime. We're also more likely to hear chirping in the spring and summer since in warmer weather, the crickets are more active.

There are four types of chirping. A loud calling song is used to attract females. A soft courting song is used when a female cricket is near. An aggressive chirping is set off when another male is coming near. And another chirp is used for a brief time after successful copulation.

According to Dolbear's law, it is actually possible to know the temperature outside (Fahrenheit) by counting the number of a cricket's chirps in 14 seconds and adding 40 to that number.

What is the molarity of a solution in which 7.1 g of sodium sulfate is dissolved in enough water to make 100. mL of solution?
Sidana [21]

Answer:

0.50 M

Explanation:

Given data

  • Mass of sodium sulfate (solute): 7.1 g
  • Volume of solution: 100 mL

Step 1: Calculate the moles of the solute

The molar mass of sodium sulfate is 142.04 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 7.1 grams of sodium sulfate are:

7.1g \times \frac{1mol}{142.02g} = 0.050mol

Step 2: Convert the volume of solution to liters

We will use the relation 1 L = 1000 mL.

100mL \times \frac{1L}{1000mL} =0.100L

Step 3: Calculate the molarity of the solution

M = \frac{moles\ of\ solute }{liters\ of\ solution} = \frac{0.050mol}{0.100L} =0.50 M

The theoretical yield of a reaction is the amount of product obtained if the limiting reactant is completely converted to produc
Elis [28]

Answer: 9.9 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}

a) moles of H_2

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{8.150g}{2g/mol}=4.08moles

b) moles of C_2H_4

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{9.330g}{28g/mol}=0.33moles

H_2(g)+C_2H_4(g)\rightarrow C_2H_6(g)

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of C_2H_4 combine with 1 mole of H_2

Thus 0.33 mole of C_2H_4 will combine with =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.33=0.33 mole of H_2

Thus C_2H_4 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product.

As 1 mole of C_2H_4 give =  1 mole of C_2H_6

Thus 0.33 moles of C_2H_4 give =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.33=0.33moles  of C_2H_6

Mass of C_2H_6=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.33moles\times 30g/mol=9.9g

Thus theoretical yield (g) of C_2H_6 produced by the reaction is 9.9 grams

Which type of substance is soft, has a low melting point, and is a poor conductor of electricity
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Covalent compounds have low forces of attraction between their molecules (i.e. one H2O molecule isn't as attracted to another H2O molecule than the oppositely charges ions are in an ionic compound). Little energy is needed to break their bonds, therefore they have low meting points. Hope this is what you are looking for!
