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.

You are performing an experiment that uses 114Ag. 113Ag is radioactive, decays by beta-- emission and has a half-life of 21 minu
maxonik [38]

Answer: The 234.74 grams of sample should be ordered.

Explanation:

Let the gram of  114 Ag to ordered be N_o

The amount required for the beginning of experiment = 0.0575 g

Time requires to ship the sample = 4.2hour = 252 min(1 hr = 60 min)

Half life of the sample ={t_{\frac{1}{2}} = 21 min

\lambda =\frac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}=\frac{0.693}{21 min}=0.033 min^{-1}

\log[N]=\log[N_o]-\frac{\lambda t}{2.303}

\log[0.0575 g]=\log[N_o]-\frac{0.033 min^{-1}\times 252 min}{2.303}

N_o=234.74 grams

The 234.74 grams of sample should be ordered.

Write an equation that shows the formation of a chromium(ii) ion from a neutral chromium atom.
daser333 [38]
The   equation  that  shows  the  formation  of  chromium (ii) ion  from  neutral  chromium  atom  is  as  follow
Cr ---> cr^2+   +  2e-
Cr^2+ is  the  chromium  ion   with  oxidation  state  of  two  which  is  one  of  the  common  ion  of  chromium.  Other  common  ion   of  chromium  include  chromium  of  oxidation  state  6  and  3

What evidence do you see that a chemical reaction is taking place when you add hydrogen peroxide to potassium ioxide??
Yuri [45]

Answer:

Bubbling/Foaming

Heat is produced

Explanation:

A chemical reaction has occurred if

1. There is a change in colour

2. Formation of a precipitate

3. Formation of a gas

4. Change in temperature

5. Change of smell

In the reaction of hydrogen peroxide and potassium iodide, the solution quickly rises which shows the formation of gas. This means it is a chemical reaction.

The beaker/test tube/whatever you used should also become warm because it is an exothermic reaction. This means its a chemical reaction
