The Photon is the "release" of energy in the form of light. Energy absorbed by the atom causes a change in energy of the electrons of a stable atom. This change forces an electron to move from one valance ring to another. The energy is released in the form of light called a photon. Depending on the amount of energy released and the valance the electron jumps to is what determines the light (photon) wave length. If an atom has too much light than it may disappear/explode.<span>

If you measured the temperature of the ocean at increasing depths, will the temperature of the water increase or decrease with d
Viefleur [7K]
In the ocean, solar energy is rapidly absorbed or reflected in the upper surface, leaving little energy to penetrate deeper, and so deeper water is not heated (this also explains the lack of light deep in the ocean). Additionally, warm water is less dense than cold water, and so cold water will sink while warm water floats above it.

Thus, temperature of the ocean also varies from top to bottom, giving a vertical structure to most of the ocean. This vertical structure has a large impact on how life is distributed in the ocean.

What point does the ammonium ions act as a buffer solution? Please this is driving me insane.
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Explanation:The buffer is a mixture of ammonia (NH3) and ammonium (NH4+). ... Since ammonia (NH3) is a weak base, it will have a pH above 7 and since ammonium (NH4+) is a weak acid, it will have a pH below 7. Ammonia (NH3) is a weak base and ammonium (NH4+) is a weak acid. Ammonia (NH3) is the conjugate base of ammonium (NH4+).
