The human eye contains a certain protein called rhodopsin that changes shape when it is exposed to light. When rhodopsin absorbs

light, part of it undergoes a chemical change. This is how eyes sense the presence of light.

The human eye contains a molecule called 11-cis-retinal that changes conformation when struck with light of sufficient energy. The change in conformation triggers a series of events that results in an electrical signal being sent to the brain. The minimum energy required to change the conformation of 11-cis-retinal within the eye is about 164 {\rm kJ}/{\rm mol}.

Will sodium iodide react with bromine to produce sodium bromide and iodine? Why or why not?
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The higher the period the higher the activity of an element, therefore, since iodine is in period 6 and bromine is in period 5, the described reaction is not possible due to the fact that bromine is less active

How does a higher heat capacity affect the amount of time it takes for an object’s temperature to change?
marshall27 [118]
<span> An object with a high specific heat would change temperature more slowly than one with low specific heat. Water, for example has a very high specific heat so it requires a lot of energy to heat it up. It also takes a while for water to cool down because it holds that heat for a long time. <3</span>
