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.

Question 1 of 10
Alina [70]

D. The total number of gas molecules will decrease.

Explanation:

According to Le Chatelier's principle, an increase in pressure in a system involving gases will cause the total number of gas molecules to decrease.

Le Chatelier's principle states that "if any conditions of a system in equilibrium is changed, the system will adjust itself in order to annul the effect of the change".

In a reaction involving gases, a change in pressure affects only reactions in a gaseous phase.

An increase in pressure on an equilibrium system will shift the position of the equilibrium to the side having smaller volume and vice versa.

If water and hydrogen peroxide both consist of hydrogen and oxygen atoms, explain why they have different chemical and physical
lana [24]
Water and hydrogen peroxide are different compounds although they have the same kind of atoms. The molecular formula of water is H2O (two atoms of oxygen chemically bonded to one atom of oxygen). The molecular formula of hydrogen peroxide is H2O2, (each atom of oxygen is chemical bonded to one atom of H and other atom of O). So,<span> the presence of different chemical bonds leads to different products with different chemical properties.</span><span />

Planets close to a star will have __ orbital velocities than planets farther from a star.
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The closer a planet is to the Sun, the stronger the Sun's gravitational pull on it, and the faster the planet moves. The farther it is from the Sun, the weaker the Sun's gravitational pull, and the slower it moves in its orbit.

Why do hotspots appear to move in relation to tectonic plates?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:The heat that fuels the hot spot comes from very deep in the planet. This heat causes the mantle in that region to melt. The molten magma rises up and breaks through the crust to form a volcano. While the hot spot stays in one place, rooted to its deep source of heat, the tectonic plate is slowly moving above it.
