Answer:

A. Optical fibers transmit light signals in high-speed communications.

Explanation:

You didn't include the image, but it probably showed light bouncing off the sides as in the diagram below.

It demonstrates how optical fibers transmit light signals in high-speed communications.

B is wrong. Satellites communicate by radio waves.

C is wrong. Solar cells convert light energy to

D is wrong. Power plants transmit electrical energy to homes through copper wires.

The following data were measured for the reaction BF3(g)+NH3(g)→F3BNH3(g): Experiment [BF3](M) [NH3](M) Initial Rate (M/s) 1 0.2

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

$-r_{A}=k\times[BF_3]^{1}\times[NH_3]^{1}$

Explanation:

The rate law of a chemical reaction is given by

$-r_{A}=k\times[BF_3]^{\alpha}\times[NH_3]^{\beta}$

This law can be written for any experiment, and making the quotient between those expressions the reaction orders can be found

Between experiments 1 and 2

$\frac{-r_{A1}}{{-r}_{A2}}=\left(\frac{\left[NH_3\right]_1}{\left[NH_3\right]_2}\right)^\beta$

Then the expression for the calculation of $\beta$

$\beta=\frac{ln\frac{-r_{A1}}{-r_{A2}}}{ln\left(\frac{\left[NH_3\right]_1}{\left[NH_3\right]_2}\right)}=\frac{ln\frac{0.2130}{0.1065}}{ln\left(\frac{0.250}{0.125}\right)}$

Resolving

$\beta=1$

Doing the same between experiments 3 and 4 the expression for $\alpha$ is

$\alpha=\frac{ln\frac{-r_{A3}}{-r_{A4}}}{ln\left(\frac{\left[BF_3\right]_3}{\left[BF_3\right]_4}\right)}=\frac{ln\frac{0.0682}{0.1193}}{ln\left(\frac{0.200}{0.350}\right)}$

Resolving

$\alpha=1$

This means that the rate law for this reaction is

$-r_{A}=k\times[BF_3]^{1}\times[NH_3]^{1}$

Explain why materials with metallic lattice structures can be used to make wires and connections that conduct electricity in ele

kogti [31]

All metals have similar properties BUT, there can be wide variations in melting point, boiling point, density, electrical conductivity and physical strength.To explain the physical properties of metals like iron or sodium we need a more sophisticated picture than a simple particle model of atoms all lined up in close packed rows and layers, though this picture is correctly described as another example of a giant lattice held together by metallic bonding.A giant metallic lattice – the crystal lattice of metals consists of ions (NOT atoms) surrounded by a 'sea of electrons' that form the giant lattice (2D diagram above right).The outer electrons (–) from the original metal atoms are free to move around between the positive metal ions formed (+).These 'free' or 'delocalised' electrons from the outer shell of the metal atoms are the 'electronic glue' holding the particles together.There is a strong electrical force of attraction between these free electrons (mobile electrons or 'sea' of delocalised electrons) (–) and the 'immobile' positive metal ions (+) that form the giant lattice and this is the metallic bond. The attractive force acts in all directions.Metallic bonding is not directional like covalent bonding, it is like ionic bonding in the sense that the force of attraction between the positive metal ions and the mobile electrons acts in every direction about the fixed (immobile) metal ions of the metal crystal lattice, but in ionic lattices none of the ions are mobile. a big difference between a metal bond and an ionic bond.Metals can become weakened when repeatedly stressed and strained.This can lead to faults developing in the metal structure called 'metal fatigue' or 'stress fractures'.If the metal fatigue is significant it can lead to the collapse of a metal structure.
