Answer:

Polarization, also called wave polarization, is an expression of the orientation of the lines of electric flux in an electromagnetic field ( EM field ). Polarization can be constant -- that is, existing in a particular orientation at all times, or it can rotate with each wave cycle.

Explanation:

Hope this helps!!!!!

Polarization also occurs when light is scattered while traveling through a medium. When light strikes the atoms of a material, it will often set the electrons of those atoms into vibration. The vibrating electrons then produce their own electromagnetic wave that is radiated outward in all directions.

How would decreasing the volume of the reaction vessel affect each of the following equilibria?2NOBr(g)⇌2NO(g)+Br2(g)
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

The equilibrium position will shift towards the left hand side or reactants side

Explanation:

Decreasing the volume (increasing the pressure) of the system will shift the equilibrium position towards the lefthand side or reactants side. This is because, decreasing the volume (increasing the pressure) implies shifting the equilibrium position towards the side having the least number of moles.

There are two moles of reactants and a total of three moles of products(total). Hence decreasing the volume and increasing the pressure of the gas phase reaction will shift the equilibrium position towards the lefthand side.
