Explanation:

The energy of electromagnetic radiation is given by :

E=h\nu

Where, h is the Planck's constant

(a) A gamma ray, \nu = 1.64\times 10^{20}\ Hz

Energy,

E=6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 1.64\times 10^{20}\\E=1.08\times 10^{-13}\ J

(b) A microwave, \nu = 4.95\times 10^{10}\ Hz

Energy,

E=6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 4.95\times 10^{10}\\E=3.28\times 10^{-23}\ J

(c) A AM radio wave, \nu = 2\times 10^{6}\ Hz

Energy,

E=6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 2\times 10^{6}\\E=1.32\times 10^{-27}\ J

Therefore, this is the required solution.

Why are hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions omitted from the net reaction for the hydrolysis of water?
Leviafan [203]
<span>Hydrolysis is the breaking down of bonds when water is involved in the reaction. </span>The net reaction for the hydrolysis of water yields hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions because these ions are dissociated upon solvolysis. This means they are completely dissolved and transformed into ions thereafter.

what kind of change occurs when sodium and chlorine combine ? Describe the matter before and after the change
DaniilM [7]
Sodium is a silver-colored metal which is soft enough to cut with a knife. It is an extremely reactive metal, and is always found naturally in ionic compounds, not in its pure metallic form. Pure sodium metal reacts violently (and sometimes explosively) with water, producing sodium hydroxide, hydrogen gas, and heat:


Chlorine is a poisonous, yellow-green gas, with a very sharp odor, a

Chemical change happen cuz these 2 elements will combine to form a new compound which’s NaCl ( table salt )

Kepler was able to determine that the planets move slowest when they are _____.
kherson [118]
Planets move slower when they are furthest from the sun. But when they are closer they move faster because of the gravitational pull of the Sun.

Hope this helps.
