Answer: electricity cannot be generated

Explanation:

A solar energy is a renewable source of energy in which the light energy from sun is used to heat up the solar device which converts the heat energy into electrical energy.

The major disadvantage of this technology is that the electricity cannot be generated in cloudy and rainy weather. Also in night no electricity will be generated as the device works in the presence of sunlight.

Electricity can't be generated at night because the power is reduced when the clouds cover. The solar panel is maximized when the panel is facing directly at the sun. Hope this helps.

5. Why doesn't the air at a frontal boundary mix?​
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

At a front, the two air masses have different densities, based on temperature, and do not easily mix. One air mass is lifted above the other, creating a low pressure zone.

Be careful on this one! Mass is always conserved, based on the law of conservation of mass. Since their was a change in state, we went from a solid to a gas, so, the weight would be lighter, not the mass.

The Al2O3 crystal structure (corundum) consists of an HCP arrangement of O2- ions; the Al3+ ions occupy octahedral positions. Wh
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The fraction of the available octahedral positions are filled with Al^{3+} ions is \frac{2}{3}

Explanation:

If there are n numbers of spheres in HCP in packing:

Number of octahedral void = n

Number of tetrahedral void = 2n

Total number of voids = n + 2n = 3n

The Al_2O_3 crystal structure consists of an HCP arrangement of O^{2-}ions.

Number of spheres in HCP = 6

Number of O^{2-} = 6

Number of octahedral voids = 6

Number of tetrahedral void = 12

Number of aluminum ions when there are 6 O^{2-} ion =\frac{2}{3}\times 6= 4

Number of voids in which Al^3+ ions are present = 4

The fraction of the available octahedral positions are filled with Al^{3+} ions = \frac{4}{6}=\frac{2}{3}
