Scientists use a spectroscope to receive the image of a spectra of light coming from faraway stars. Spectra is sometimes considered to be the fingerprint of the elements, with each elements having different spectra.

Explanation:

They do this by examining the spectrum of light from a star. When an ingredient is inspired, it gives off the light in distinct wavelengths, or colors.

The spectra of the Sun and stars presented bright and dark lines called Fraunhofer lines. Those were shown to be generated by elements transmitting or receiving light at specific wavelengths. Because each element emits or absorbs light only at specific wavelengths, the chemical distribution of stars can be resolved.

How many moles are in 3.90 x1030 atoms of Zn?
zaharov [31]
Explanation:
The problem basically wants you to find a way to convert between the number of atoms present in the sample and the number of moles they are equivalent to.
To convert between atoms and moles we use something called Avogadro's constant, which basically acts as the definition of a mole.
More specifically, in order to have one mole of an element you need
6.022 x 10^23 atoms of that element. You can thus use this number as a conversion factor to take you from atoms to moles or vice versa.
In your case, you will have


3.90 x 10^ 26 atoms Zn x 1 mole Zn ( Avogrado’s constant) / 6.022 x 10^23 atoms Zn

= 6.5 x 10^8 is the answer

____ [38]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

                                ionic compounds                  covalent compounds

1.- Mass                          it does not depend on the type of compound

2.- Conductivity      -conduct electricity               - do not conduct electricity

                                  in solution.

3.- Color                  - Shiny                                     - opaque

4.- Melting point     - high                                       - lower than ionic compounds

5.- Boiling point     - high                                        - lower than ionic compounds

6.- flammability      - not flammable                       - flammable

A 2,000g of C-14 is left to decay radioactively. The half-life of Carbon-14 is approximately 5,700 years. What percentage of the
dsp73
Answer is: 12,6% (1/8) <span>percentage of the sample will remain.
</span>c₀ - initial amount of C-14.<span>
c - amount of C-14 remaining at time.
t = 5700</span> y.<span>
First calculate the radioactive decay rate constant λ:
λ = 0,693 ÷ t = 0,693 ÷ 5700</span> y = 0,000121 1/y = 1,21·10⁻⁴ y.
c = c₀·e∧-λ·t.
c = 2000 · e∧-(0,000121 1/y · 17100 y).
c = 252 g.
ω = 252 g ÷ 2000 g = 0,126 = 12,6%.
