Answer: The frequency of the wave is 0.5 hertz.

Explanation:

\nu =\frac{c}{\lambda }

\nu = Frequency of the wave

c = speed of the light in m/s

\lambda = Wavelength of the wave.

Here in question we are given with speed of the infrared light. So, we will replace the value of speed of light(c) from the given value of the speed of the infrared light.

Speed of infrared light = 6 m/s

\nu =\frac{\text{speed of infrared light}}{\lambda }=\frac{6 m/s}{12 m}=0.5 hertz

The frequency of the wave is 0.5 hertz.

frequency=\frac{speed}{wavelength}

Given
speed=6\ m/s
and
wavelength=12\ m
we get:
frequency=\frac{6\ m/s}{12\ m}
\rightarrow frequency=0.5\ Hz

Arrange the following in order of increasing bond strength of the carbon oxygen bond:
icang [17]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that length of a bond is inversely proportional to the bond strength. This also means that a single bond has long length due to which it is weak in nature.

And, a double bond is shorter in length and has more strength as compared to a single bond. Whereas a triple bond has the smallest length and it has high strength as compared to a double or single bond.

For example, carbon monoxide is CO where there is a triple bond between the carbon and oxygen atom.

Carbon dioxide is CO_{2} where there exists a double bond between the carbon and oxygen atom.

A carbonate ion is CO^{2-}_{3} when two oxygen atoms are attached through single bond with the carbon atom and another oxygen atom is attached through a double bond to the carbon atom.

Hence, we can conclude that order of increasing bond strength of the given carbon oxygen bond is as follows.

        Carbonate ion < carbon dioxide < carbon monoxide

Atoms of which types of elements tend to gain electrons? Atoms of which types of elements tend to lose electrons?
ollegr [7]
Atoms of elements that are nonmetals tend to gain electrons and atoms of metallic elements tend to lose electrons. Metals have few electrons in their valence shells. By losing those electrons, these metals achieve noble gas configuration and satisfy the octet rule. Nonmetals that have close to 8 electrons in their valence shells readily accept electrons to achieve noble gas configuration. An example is the reaction between calcium and oxygen. Calcium is a metal and has 2 valence electrons. Oxygen is a nonmetal and has 6 valence electrons. Calcium gives up its two valence electrons and oxygen accepts them and an ionic bond is established resulting in the formation of anew compound namely calcium oxide.

A certain first-order reaction 45% complete in 65seconds, determine the rate constant and the half life for the process ​
masha68 [24]

The rate constant : k = 9.2 x 10⁻³ s⁻¹

The half life : t1/2 = 75.3 s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction 45% complete in 65 s

Required

The rate constant and the half life

Solution

For first order ln[A]=−kt+ln[A]o

45% complete, 55% remains

A = 0.55

Ao = 1

Input the value :

ln A = -kt + ln Ao

ln 0.55 = -k.65 + ln 1

-0.598=-k.65

k = 9.2 x 10⁻³ s⁻¹

The half life :

t1/2 = (ln 2) / k

t1/2 = 0.693 : 9.2 x 10⁻³

t1/2 = 75.3 s
