Answer:

Answer to the question:

Explanation:

Differences between ionic bond and covalent bond:

The ionic bond occurs between two different atoms (metallic and non-metallic), while the covalent bond occurs between two equal atoms (non-metallic).

In the covalent bond there is an electron compartment, while in the ionic bond there is an electron transfer.

Ionic bonds have a high melting and boiling point, while covalent bonds usually have a low point.

If light intensity obeyed an inverse square law you would expect to find the intensity of light to decrease as the square of the

Reptile [31]

Inverse square law: $\frac{I_{2} }{I_{1}}= (\frac{d{2} }{d_{1}})^2$
where
$I_{1}$ is the intensity at distance 1
$I_{2}$ is the intensity at distance 2
$d_{1}$ is distance 1
$d_{2}$ is distance 2

The inverse squared law state that intensity decreases in inverse proportion to the distance squared. So if light obeyed that rule, it will decreases its intensity as the square of the distance increases.

We can conclude that the correct answer is: true.

For a two-level system, the weight of a given energy distribution can be expressed in terms of the number of systems, N, and the

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

W = N!/(n0! * n1!)

Explanation:

Let n0 = number of particles in the lowest energy state

n1 = number of particles in the excited energy state.

Using this, we can say that N = n0 + n1

From this we can then express the weight, W of the close system by finding the factorials of each particles
