Each element absorbs light at specific wavelengths unique to that atom. When astronomers look at an object's spectrum, they can determine its composition based on these wavelengths.
Not sure if this is 100% but I hope it helps.

What properties of matter explain why the weight of an object on the moon is different than the weight of the same object on ear
algol13

Answer:

Gravity explains this.

Explanation:

Weights and mass are different terms .

Weight is defined as the force exerting on the surface due to the mass and gravity of acceleration.

W=m*g

Here mass is related to the density of the body. So as the density would be same mass woulnt vary.

Whereas the Gravity changes due to the property of the planet.

Gravity is different for different planets and hence moon and earth have two different values.

So the mass i.e density remains same on both planets but the g value always changes hence weight is different.

In the reaction 3H2 + N2 → ____ NH3, what coefficient should be placed in front of NH3 to balance the reaction?
zubka84 [21]
2. 3H2 + N2 means you have 6 Hs and 2 Ns. NH3 has one N and 3 Hs, so you need 2 NH3s in order to have the 2 and 6 of each that you need on both sides of the reaction.

frozen [14]
<span>Cations mix with anions, so you know NH4+ won't mix with K+ and SO4(2-) won't miix with F-. For the reason that NH4+ and F- together have single charges, they'll mix in a 1:1 ratio, NH4F. There's two charges on SO4(2-), so it'll need two K+ to mix with, K2SO4.</span>
