It happens due to the inner resistance. Resistance causes heating of tungsten filament and with more resistance, a light bulb produces more light.

Explanation:

As the current in a light bulb increases gradually, the filament shines more and more brightly. This occurs as the more current passes through a light bulb, the brighter it glows.  

The more the current, the more will be the power, here the power determines the brightness of a bulb. More the current, the more will be the dissipation of power in the form of light and heat. If the current enhances then the brightness will also get an increase.

Which is the top layer of groundwater?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

An aquifer is a layer of porous substrate that contains and transmits groundwater. ... The upper level of this saturated layer of an unconfined aquifer is called the water table or phreatic surface. Below the water table, where in general all pore spaces are saturated with water, is the phreatic zone.

What are its electron-pair and molecular geometries? What is the hybridization of the nitrogen atom? What orbitals on and overla
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Electron-pair geometry: tetrahedral

Molecular geometry: trigonal pyramidal

Hybridization: sp³

sp³ - 4 p

Explanation:

There is some info missing. I think this is the original question.

<em>For NBr₃, What are its electron-pair and molecular geometries? What is the hybridization of the nitrogen atom? What orbitals on N and Br overlap to form bonds between these elements?</em>

<em>The N-Br bonds are formed by the overlap of the  ___ hybrid orbitals on nitrogen with ___ orbitals on Br.</em>

<em />

Nitrogen is a central atom surrounded by 4 electron domains. According to VESPR, the corresponding electron-pair geometry is tetrahedral.

Of these 4 electron domains, 3 represent covalent bonds with Br and 1 lone pair. According to VESPR, the corresponding molecular geometry is trigonal pyramidal.

In the nitrogen atom, 1 s orbital and 3 p orbitals hybridize to form 4 sp³ orbitals for each of the electron domains.

The N-Br bonds are formed by the overlap of the sp³ hybrid orbitals on nitrogen with 4p orbitals on Br.

Explain why diamonds are useful for electrodes in batteries
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Diamonds have a broader potential window of 3 to 5 volts.

Explanation:

The minimum voltage required for electrolysis is called potential window. Electrodes such as titanium electrodes and those made of noble metals have a potential window of about 2 volts. Diamond has a potential window of 3 to 5 volts that makes it preferentially start a redox reaction of a substance that is difficult to electrolyze. This facilitates electrolysis of substance that were difficult to decompose in normal electrochemical systems.
