Why does your reflection in a mirror look different from your reflection in wood

Chemistry
1 answer:
skad [1K]3 years ago
3 0

<span>The surface of a mirror is smoothly and therefore the rays of light are reflected with the same angle they hit the surface. The surface of a piece of wood on the other hand has a lot of microscopical imperfections and hence the rays of light are reflected in multiple directions.</span>

Consider the following reaction:
NeX [460]

For the given reaction, according to the Law of Conservation of Energy, the energy required to decompose Hcl and produce H_{2}+c l_{2} are equal.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to law of conservation's of energy, energy can only be transferred from reactants to product side. So in this process, it is stated that 185 kJ of energy will be needed to decompose it. So that 185 kJ of energy will be getting transferred to produce the creation of hydrogen and chloride in the product side.

So if we see from the reactants side, the energy of 185 kJ is required for decomposition of hydrogen chloride. Similarly, if we see from the product side, the 185 kJ utilized for decomposition is transferred as energy required to create hydrogen and chlorine atoms. This statement will be in accordance with the law of conservation's of energy.

Which of the following situations contains an example of a chemical reaction?
bogdanovich [222]

A bicycle rusting after it is left in the rain is an example of a chemical reaction because it involves oxidation (Option d).  

<h3>What is a chemical reaction?</h3>

A chemical reaction can be defined as a phenomenon in which one or more substances called reactants react to form one or more different compounds, which are known as products.

A chemical reaction may include an enzyme that works to increase the seed of the reaction in normal conditions by lowering the activation energy of the reaction.

Therefore, we can conclude that a chemical reaction such as oxidation in a bicycle is a process where reactants combine or break down to form the products of such reaction.

Complete question:

Which of the following situations contains an example of a chemical reaction?

a. Ice forming after water is placed in a freezer

b. Watercolor paint drying on paper

c. a sugar cube dissolving in a glass of water

d. a bicycle rusting after it is left in the rain

Can someone PLEASE HELP me? <br><br> How can you tell if a bond is Covalent?
g100num [7]
There is a couple different ways to determine if a bond is ionic orcovalent. By definition, an ionicbond is between a metal and a nonmetal, and a covalent bond is between 2 nonmetals. So you usually just look at the periodic table and determine whether your compound is made of a metal/nonmetal or is just 2 nonmetals.

Which pH value represents a solution with the lowest OHM<br> ion concentration?
Arlecino [84]

pH value 1 represents a solution with the lowest OH⁻ion concentration.

<u>Explanation:</u>

pH is given by the expression as the negative logarithm to the base 10 of the concentration of hydrogen ions.

pH = -log₁₀[H⁺]

If the pH is lower than 7, pH < 7 then it is acidic

If the pH = 7, then it is neutral

If the pH > 7, then it is basic

If pH is 1 then the solution is showing mostly acidic character,which is least basic in its character.

So if the pH is 1, which is most acidic and least basic solution that is lowest OH⁻ ion concentration.
