The term defined as the change in direction of light when it goes from one medium into a different medium is refraction.

Refraction is the change of direction on the propagation of a beam of light when it passes from a medium to other; this only happens when the light travels at different speeds in both media.

When a beam of light that travels in the air incedes in a slab of glass, part of the beam is reflected (bounces) and part is refracted (it penetrates in the glass and changes the angle).


Also,due to the different speeds of light in air and water, when a beam of light passes from air to water, it refracts.

How do particles in a solid move?
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

The particles in a solid vibrate in place.

The ionization of pure water forms _____.
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer: The ionization of pure water forms <u><em>hydroxide and hydronium ions.</em></u>

Explanation:

Ionization is a reaction in the pure water in which water breaks down into its constituting ions that hydronium ion and hydroxide ions.

H_2O+H_2O\rightleftharpoons H_3O^++OH^-

One molecule of water looses its proton to form hydroxide ion and l=the lost protons get associated with another water molecule to form hydronium ion.

____ 26. what is the weight percentage of nitrogen in urea, cn2h4o
Paraphin [41]
Weight percentage of nitrogen can be calculated using the following rule:
weight percentage of nitrogen = (weight of nitrogen / weight of urea) x 100

From the periodic table:
molecular mass of carbon = 12 grams
molecular mass of nitrogen = 14 grams
molecular mass of hydrogen = 1 grams
molecular mass of oxygen = 16 grams

therefore:
mass of nitrogen in urea = 2(14) = 28 grams
mass of urea = 12 + 2(14) + 4(1) + 16 = 60 grams

Substitute with the masses in the equation to get the percentage:
weight percentage of nitrogen = (28/60) x 100 = 46.667%
