Answer:

A. the intermolecular forces are similar in both dichloromethane and iodine.

Explanation:

Solubility is determined by the principle , "like dissolves like" .

i.e. , if a compound is polar then it will dissolve in a polar compound only , and

if a compound is non - polar then it will dissolve in a non - polar compound only .

As,

Non polar compounds , have similar interaction , and hence gets dissolved , and similarly ,

polar compounds have similar dipole - dipole interaction , and hence gets dissolved .

From the question ,

Iodine, I₂(s), is more soluble in dichloromethane, CH₂Cl₂(l) , as both are non - polar in nature and hence due to similar interaction , are soluble .

Water is polar in nature and therefore less soluble in Iodine, I₂(s) .

Answer:

ptic fiber communication and satellite communication are the leading technologies which are revolutionizing the world of telecommunications. Both technologies have their advantages and limitations which make them suitable for certain type of applications. This article will provide an overview of optic fiber and satellite communication technologies and present a comparison of the features and related issues.

Optic Fiber Communication

Optic Fiber communication transmits information by sending pulses of light (using laser) through an optic fiber. The low signal loss in optic fibers and high data rate of transmission systems, allow signals with high data rates (exceeding several Gbps) to travel over long distances (more than 100 km) without a need of repeater or amplifier. Moreover, using wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) allows a single fiber to carry multiple signals (upto 10 different signals) of multi-Gbps transmissions. Optic Fiber communication offers extremely high bandwidth, immunity to electromagnetic interference, non-existent delays and immunity from interception by external means. In the 1980s and 1990s, the continents were linked together using undersea optic fiber bringing about a paradigm shift in the global telecommunications.

These advancements in optic fiber communication has resulted in decrease of satellite communications for several types of communications. For instance, transmission between fixed locations or point-to-point communications, where large bandwidths are required (such as transoceanic telephone systems) are made through optic fiber instead of using satellite communication. Optic Fiber communication is also used to transmit telephone signals, Internet communication, LAN (Gigabit LAN) and cable television signals.

Satellite Communication

Satellite communications use artificial satellites as relays between a transmitter and a receiver at different locations on Earth. Satellite systems allow users to bypass typical carrier offices and to broadcast information to multiple locations. Communications satellites are used for radio, TV, telephone, Internet, military and other applications. There are more than 2,000 satellites around Earth’s orbit, being used for communication by both government and private organizations.

Communication Satellites are LOS (line-of-sight) microwave systems with a repeater. These satellites rotate around the earth with the speed of earth and are known as geostationary satellites. The limitations of antenna size also limits focusing capability making the coverage for a single satellite transmitter very large. This makes satellite communication ideal for TV and radio services as the signal has to flow from a single point to many points in a single direction. The large distance of satellites from the earth (about 22,300 miles) results in delays which adversely effects two-way communication like mobile conversations. Low earth orbit satellites can be used for two-way mobile communication because less power is required to reach those satellites.

The element in Group 14 Period 4 has how many neutrons and is it a metal, nonmetal, metalloid or noble gas.

monitta

Number of neutrons=41, and it is metalloid

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Group 14⇒valence electron = 4(ns²np²)

Period 4⇒n=4

So electron configuration of the element :

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p² = 32 electron=atomic number

The element with atomic number 32, which is in period 4 and group 14 is Ge-Germanium

There are seven elements that can be classified as metalloids, namely boron (B), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), tellurium (Te), and polonium (Po).

While the mass number: 73

So the number of neutrons = mass number-atomic number

$\tt 73-32=41$

What is the mass, in grams, of 9.01 x 1024 molecules of methanol (CH, OH) ?

Zina [86]

Answer:

480.6 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of molecules of methanol = 9.01 ×10²⁴

Mass in gram = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

9.01 ×10²⁴molecules ×1 mol /6.022 × 10²³ molecules

1.5 ×10¹ mol

15 mol

Mass in gram:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 15 mol × 32.04 g/mol

Mass = 480.6 g

An unkown element has been found to occur in two different stable isotopes. One isotope has an abundance of 57.21 percent and ha

NeX [460]

Answer: 121.7558 amu

Explanation:

Average atomic mass of the unknown element =

(Mass of isotope 1 x Relative Abundance of Isotope 1) + ( Mass of Isotope 2 x Relative Abundance of Isotope 2)

(120.9 x 0.5721) + (122.9 x 0.4279) = 69.16689 + 52.58891

Average mass of the unknown element = 121.7558 amu
