What is it called when Light changes direction and slows down when it enters water from air.

Chemistry

Zepler [3.9K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

When light travels from air into water, it slows down, causing it to change direction slightly. This change of direction is called refraction. When light enters a more dense substance (higher refractive index), it 'bends' more towards the normal line.

During a 4 hour trip, a boat sailed 70 km in 2 h. Then the boat did not move for 1 hour and traveled 26 km in the last hour. Wha
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

32km/hr

Explanation:

The question asks to calculate the average speed for a boat.

Mathematically, the average speed is the total distance divided by the total time

Let’s get the total distance traveled:

That would be 70km + 26km = 96km

Now the total time taken would be 3 as the boat did not move at all for an hour.

The average speed is thus 96/3 = 32km/hr

A teacher is preparing the materials list for an activity that all 6th graders will
Greeley [361]

Answer:

There are 1000 mg in 1. g

There are 1000 g in 1 kg

Each students needs 2,250 mg of clay

Explanation:

In order to determine the amount of how many kilograms to order, the teacher will need to find out the total mass of clay required by the students and then the teacher will have to convert the total mass to the units required for the purchase.

The teacher would have to find out how many milligrams make one kilogram as follows

1 kg = 1000 g

1 g = 1000 mg

Therefore, 2,250 mg = 2250/1000 g = 2.25 g

2.25 g = 2.25/1000 kg = 0.00225 kg.

Identify what type of reaction is below. Also, determine what coefficients that would balance the chemical equation. ___ C4H10 +
Evgen [1.6K]

This is a combustion reaction because it is being combined with oxygen. Then to balance you will put the number of carbons you have or 4 in front of the CO2 and then same with H2. Then you will add up the oxygen and divide it by two to get. 1, (13/2), 4, 5

Complete the mechanism for the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of the epoxide in alcohol by adding any missing atoms, bonds, charges,
Sauron [17]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

You are missing the structure, therefore, I will do an example with one that I found on another place to try to explain.

This acid mechanism always involves carbocations, and positive charges, never negative because we are in acidic mediums.

In the first step, the lone pairs of the oxigen from the epoxide, substract one hydrogen of the reactant.

Second step, the lone pairs of the oxygen from the reactant, do a nucleophylic attack to the carbon of the epoxide. In this case, it will do it to the most substitued carbon.

Then, in the third step by acid base equilibrium, the hydrogen from the reactant that attacked, is substracted from the molecule by a molecule of water (We are in acid medium, therefore, there is traces of water) and the final structure is formed.
