The answer is true

Refraction is an effect that occurs when a light wave, incident at an angle away from the normal, passes a boundary from one medium into another in which there is a change in velocity of the light.The wavelength decreases as the light enters the medium and the light wave changes direction.

The ion n3− has _____ protons and _____ electrons.enter your answers as integers separated by a comma.

bearhunter [10]

The ion N³⁻ is called the azide ion. In its neutral state, it occurs as the element Nitrogen. The atomic number of Nitrogen is 7. When it turns into an anion (negatively charged ion), it gains 3 more electrons. That's why its net charge becomes -3. It means that the protons is still 7, but the electrons are now 10.

Overall charge = +7 + -10 = -3

Bromine reacts with nitric oxide to form nitrosyl bromide as shown in this reaction: br2(g) + 2 no(g) → 2 nobr(g) a possible mec

Svetach [21]

The overall reaction is given by:

$Br_{2}(g) + 2 NO(g) \rightarrow 2 NOBr(g)$

The fast step reaction is given as:

$NO(g) + Br_{2}(g) \rightleftharpoons NOBr_{2}(g) (fast; k_{eq}= \frac{k_{1}}{k_{-1}})$

The slow step reaction is given as:

$NOBr_{2}(g) + NO(g) \rightarrow 2 NOBr(g)$ (slow step $k_{2}$ )

Now, the expression for the rate of reaction of fast reaction is:

$r_{1}=k_{1}[NO][Br_{2}]-k_{-1}[NOBr_{2}]$

The expression for the rate of reaction of slow reaction is:

$r_{2}=k_{2}[NOBr_{2}] [NO]$

Slow step is the rate determining step. Thus, the overall rate of formation is the rate of formation of slow reaction as $[NOBr_{2}]$ takes place in this reaction.
