The green light emitted by a stoplight has a wavelength of 505 nm. What is the frequency of this photon? (c = 3.00 × 10⁸ m/s).
Kitty [74]

Answer:

5.9405*10^14 Hz

Explanation:

Remember the equation c=v*λ

v=frequency

λ=wavelength

By manipulating the equation, we can get it in terms of frequency:

c/λ=v

Now convert wavelength to meters (1nm=m*10^-9)

5.05*10^-7m (2 decimal places were shifted to make the number between 1-10, hence the -7 exponent)

Use the manipulated equation:

(3.00*10^8)/(5.05*10^-7), which yields:

5.9405*10^14 Hz (or s^-1)

Please Help Me!!
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

1. Galvanic oxidation. Example is the corrosion of aluminium wires when in contact with copper wires under wet conditions.

2. Rainwater or Damp/moist air

3. Chromium-plated steel screws or stainless steel screws or galvanized steel screws

Explanation:

1. Galvanic oxidation or corrosion occurs when two different metals with different electrode potentials are brought into contact with each other by means of an electrolyte (usually a aqueous solution), such that a redox reaction occurs leading to one metal with the more negative electrode potential (the anode) becoming oxidized, while the other less negative potential (the cathode) is reduced.

In order for galvanic corrosion to occur, three elements are required.

i. Two metals with different corrosion potentials (anode and cathode)

ii. Direct metal-to-metal electrical contact

iii. A conductive electrolyte solution (e.g. water) must connect the two metals on a regular basis.

For example oxidation (corrosion) of aluminium wires when in contact with copper wire under wet conditions.

2. The most likely electrolyte will be rainwater containing dissoved solutes (if the panel is in an exposed part of the house) or damp/moist air.

3. From the table, the most likely screw will be chromium-plated steel screws or stainless steel (made of iron and nickel) screws or galvanized steel (zinc-plated) screws.

All these possible screw components have a more negative electrode potential than copper. Thus they will serve as the anode in a galvanic oxidation with copper.

Why are there sometimes warm days during a cold winter? (not chemistry, its actually science)
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

It is all about the tilt of the Earth's axis. Many people believe that the temperature changes because the Earth is closer to the sun in summer and farther from the sun in winter. In fact, the Earth is farthest from the sun in July and is closest to the sun in January!

Consider an exceptionally weak acid, HA, with a Ka = 1x10 -20 . You make a 0.1M solution of the salt Na
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

pH=13

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the acid, we can suppose a simple dissociation as:

HA\rightleftharpoons H^+ + A^-

Which occurs in aqueous phase, therefore, the law of mass action is written by:

Ka=\frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]}

That in terms of the change x due to the reaction's extent we can write:

1x10^{-20}=\frac{x*x}{0.1M-x}

But we prefer to compute the Kb due to its exceptional weakness:

Kb=\frac{Kw}{Ka}=\frac{1x10^{-14}}{1x10^{-20}}  =1x10^{-6}

Next, the acid dissociation in the presence of the base we have:

Kb=\frac{[OH^-][HA]}{[A^-]}=1x10^{6}=\frac{x*x}{0.1-x}

Whose solution is x=0.0999M which equals the concentration of hydroxyl in the solution, thus we compute the pOH:

pOH=-log([OH^-])=-log(0.0999)=1

Finally, since the maximum scale is 14, we can compute the pH by knowing the pOH:

pH+pOH=14\\\\pH=14-pOH=14-1\\\\pH=13

Regards.

Weathering of rock and sedimentation ultimately lead to the formation of___
Inga [223]
Weathering of the rock and sedimentation are decomposition processes. Through time, the minerals in the rocks soften due to pressure and heat. So, they crumble down and reduce in terms of size. Once they do, they become sand or part of the soil. So, the answer is A.
