Which is true of ultraviolet rays?

1 answer:

7 0

A is true of UV rays.
B is true not of UV rays but rather of visible light.
C is true not of UV rays but rather of microwaves. (unless you actually toast your toast in a toaster like a normal person)
D is true not of UV rays but rather of radio waves.

Calculate the lattice energy for NaF (s) given the following

san4es73 [151]

Answer: E

Explanation:

The lattice energy is the energy change when one mole of a crystal is formed from its components ions in its gaseous sate

Therefore lattice energy = heat of Sublimation+ ionization energy +electron affinity-(heat of formation)

Therefore lattice Energy = 109 +495 -328 +570.

Lattice energy = --923kjmol-1

Does it take more, less, or the same amount of heat to melt 1.0 kg of ice at 0°C, or to bring 1.0 kg of liquid water at 0°C to t

Murljashka [212]

Answer : It takes less amount of heat to metal 1.0 Kg of ice.

Solution :

The process involved in this problem are :

$(1):H_2O(s)(0^oC)\rightarrow H_2O(l)(0^oC)\\\\(2):H_2O(l)(0^oC)\rightarrow H_2O(l)(100^oC)$

Now we have to calculate the amount of heat released or absorbed in both processes.

For process 1 :

$Q_1=m\times \Delta H_{fusion}$

where,

$Q_1$ = amount of heat absorbed = ?

m = mass of water or ice = 1.0 Kg

$\Delta H_{fusion}$ = enthalpy change for fusion = $3.35\times 10^5J/Kg$

Now put all the given values in $Q_1$ , we get:

$Q_1=1.0Kg\times 3.35\times 10^5J/Kg=3.35\times 10^5J$

For process 2 :

$Q_2=m\times c_{p,l}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})$

where,

$Q_2$ = amount of heat absorbed = ?

m = mass of water = 1.0 Kg

$c_{p,l}$ = specific heat of liquid water = $4186J/Kg^oC$

$T_1$ = initial temperature = $0^oC$

$T_2$ = final temperature = $100^oC$

Now put all the given values in $Q_2$ , we get:

$Q_2=1.0Kg\times 4186J/Kg^oC\times (100-0)^oC$

$Q_2=4.186\times 10^5J$

From this we conclude that, $Q_1$ that means it takes less amount of heat to metal 1.0 Kg of ice.

Hence, the it takes less amount of heat to metal 1.0 Kg of ice.

Which of the following conditions would lead to a small population size? a. a low birth to death ratio b. a high birth to death

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Choice A.

A low birth to death ratio

Explanation:

A low birth to death ratio means that people are dying faster than they are being born. This leads to a decreasing population size.

Perform the calculation and record the answer with the correct number of significant figures.

kotykmax [81]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

A. (6.5-6.10)/3.19

B. (34.123 + 9.60) / (98.7654 - 9.249)

Answer:

For A: The answer becomes 0.1

For B: The answer becomes 0.4884

Explanation:

Significant figures are defined as the figures present in a number that expresses the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy.

Rules for the identification of significant figures:

Digits from 1 to 9 are always significant and have infinite number of significant figures.
All non-zero numbers are always significant. For example: 664, 6.64 and 66.4 all have three significant figures.
All zeros between the integers are always significant. For example: 5018, 5.018 and 50.18 all have four significant figures.
All zeros preceding the first integers are never significant. For example: 0.00058 has two significant figures.
All zeros after the decimal point are always significant. For example: 2.500, 25.00 and 250.0 all have four significant figures.
All zeroes used solely for spacing the decimal point are not significant. For example: 10000 has one significant figure.

Rule applied for addition and subtraction:

The least precise number present after the decimal point determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

Rule applied for multiplication and division:

In case of multiplication and division, the number of significant digits is taken from the value which has least precise significant digits

For A: (6.5-6.10)/3.19

This a a problem of subtraction and division.

First, the subtraction is carried out.

$\Rightarow \frac{6.5-6.10}{3.19}=\frac{0.4}{3.19}$

Here, the least precise number after decimal was 1.

$\Rightarrow \frac{0.4}{3.19}=0.125$

Here, the least precise number of significant digit is 1. So, the answer becomes 0.1

For B: (34.123 + 9.60) / (98.7654 - 9.249)

This a a problem of subtraction, addition and division.

First, the subtraction and addition is carried out.

$\Rightarow \frac{34.123+9.60}{98.7654-9.249}=\frac{43.723}{89.5164}=\frac{43.72}{89.516}$

Here, the least precise number after decimal in addition are 2 and in subtraction are 3

$\Rightarrow \frac{43.72}{89.516}=0.48840$

Here, the least precise number of significant digit are 4. So, the answer becomes 0.4884

If the exact outer limit of an isolated atom cannot be measured, what criterion can we use to determine atomic radii? What is th

Alik [6]

Answer:

Calculate the atomic radii of two touching or overlapping atoms.

Explanation:

No doubt, we can't find the atomic boundary of a single atom, but when atoms are in the form of pairs it becomes very easy to measure the atomic radii of two and then dividing it by 2 to get an estimate of atomic radius of a single atom.

It is also called as covalent radius which is half of the total inter-nuclear distance between two same bonded atoms (Homo-nuclear).

If two adjacent mettalic ions are joined by such pairing then the same half of the distance between the nucleus is termed as metallic radii.
