A period is horizontal; the elements gain 1 proton for each space moving left to right.
A group is vertical; the elements in each group have the same number of electrons in the valence shell(outer orbital).

In the periodic table, the vertical columns are called the “groups” or sometimes referred as “families.” They are called this because they have similar chemical properties. The horizontal rows on the period table are called periods because they all have same exact number of electron shells.

Water's heat of fusion is 80. cal/g , its specific heat is 1.0calg⋅∘C, and its heat of vaporization is 540 cal/g . A canister is

<span>294400 cal The heating of the water will have 3 phases 1. Melting of the ice, the temperature will remain constant at 0 degrees C 2. Heating of water to boiling, the temperature will rise 3. Boiling of water, temperature will remain constant at 100 degrees C So, let's see how many cal are needed for each phase. We start with 320 g of ice and 100 g of liquid, both at 0 degrees C. We can ignore the liquid and focus on the ice only. To convert from the solid to the liquid, we need to add the heat of fusion for each gram. So multiply the amount of ice we have by the heat of fusion. 80 cal/g * 320 g = 25600 cal Now we have 320 g of ice that's been melted into water and the 100 g of water we started with, resulting in 320 + 100 = 420 g of water at 0 degrees C. We need to heat that water to 100 degrees C 420 * 100 = 42000 cal Finally, we have 420 g of water at the boiling point. We now need to pump in an additional 540 cal/g to boil it all away. 420 g * 540 cal/g = 226800 cal So the total number of cal used is 25600 cal + 42000 cal + 226800 cal = 294400 cal</span>

Which color of light is diffracted at a greater angle from a diffraction grating, red or yellow?
Anit [1.1K]
The color of light that will be diffracted at a greater angle from a diffracting grating is THE YELLOW COLOR.
This is because, the degree of diffraction depend on the wavelength of light and light color with shorter wavelength are diffracted at a larger angle than those with longer wavelengths. The wavelength of the yellow color is much more smaller than that of the red color.
