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.

What takes pictures of clouds and storm systems from the exosphere
tamaranim1 [39]

The answer should be "Satellite." The satellite is placed in the exosphere which allows it to take pictures of the clouds from above, which is also how NASA gets most of it's pictures of the planet.

Hope this helps!

What’s the correct answer
Fed [463]
The correct answer is: 
_________________________________________________________
    " F  and Br , because they are in the same group" .
_________________________________________________________
Note:
_________________________________________________________
Choice [B]:  "F and Br ; because they are in the same period" ; is incorrect; since  "F" and "Br" are not in the same "period" (that is, "row").
______________________________________________________
Choice [C]:  "Na and Mg; because they are in the same group {"column"} ;  is incorrect; since:  "Na" and "Mg are NOT in the same group {"column"].
_______________________________________________________
Choice [D]:  "Na and Mg" ; because they are in the same period {"row"}; is incorrect.  Note:  "Na" and "Mg" are, in fact,  in the same period {"row"}. However, as aforementioned, {Mg and Na} are not in the same group {"column".}.  

Note:  The similiarities in physical and chemistry properties among elements are determined and organized — or tend to be so—by "groups" {"columns"} — NOT by "periods" {rows}.

gregori [183]
Zn⁰ ----> Zn⁺²   +   2e⁻ -  oxidation
Hg⁺² + 2e⁻ ----> Hg⁰ - reduction

Zn loses 2 moles of electrons , and Hg gains 2 mole of electrons.
So, number of moles of electrons gained and lost during reaction is equal.

Use wedge-bond perspective drawings (if necessary) to sketch the atom positions in a general molecule of formula (not shape clas
yuradex [85]

The atom positions in a general molecule of formula (not shape class) AXn that has shape square pyramidal at the corers of square and one at the above center of the square.

<h3>What is square pyramidal?</h3>

The square pyramidal is a shape geometry of the hybridization in which it consists of one lone pair and 5 bond pairs of electrons that repel each other and due to which the geometry changes from octahedral to square pyramidal.

As atoms are located at the four corners of the planer and one atom at the above center of the planner which is repelled by 4 atoms present at the corner of the planer.

Therefore, the atom positions in a general molecule of formula (not shape class) AXn that has a shape square pyramidal at the corners of the square and one at the above center of the square.
