<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Reagan is right

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • A longitudinal wave is a wave in which particles are displaced parallel to the direction the wave travels.
  • Longitudinal waves are characterized by regions called compressions, where the particles are closest together and rarefaction is where the particles are furthest apart.
  • <em><u>A sound wave traveling through air is a classic example of a longitudinal wave. Sound wave are also mechanical waves that require material medium for propagation.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Sound wave sin are are longitudinal waves because air molecules move in a direction that is parallel to the direction that the wave moves</u></em>

morpeh [17]

Answer:

Increases,  remain constant

Explanation:

In the light spectrum, the photons with a higher frequency (hence smaller wavelengths) have higher energy. The lower the energy the lower the frequency and longer the wavelengths. The intensity of light does not change the energy levels of these photons. The higher the intensity the higher the density of the photoelectrons.

What is the molecule shown below?
arsen [322]

Answer:

2,3 -Dimethyl pentane

Explanation:

The given molecule is 2,3-Dimethyl pentane.

First of all select the longest chain of C-C atom. This will be the parent name.

In given structure the longest chain is straight chain that contain five carbon. Thus the parent name will pentane and there is no double or triple bond the given structure is of alkane.

Than locate the positions of functional groups attached.

In given structure there are two methyl groups are present. Give the name in such a way that functional groups will have lowest number. In given case we will start from the left.

The first methyl group will have number 2 and second will have number 3.

The name will be,

2,3-Dimethyl pentane

Hydrogen sulfide gas gives rotten eggs their terrible odor. Hydrogen sulfide burns in air (O2) to produce sulfide dioxide gas an
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

2.07 mol O₂

Explanation:

First we need to write down the species present in the chemical equation, using the information given by the exercise:

  • H₂S + O₂ → SO₂ + H₂O

However this equation <em>is not balanced</em>, so now we<u> balance it</u>:

  • 2H₂S + 3O₂ → 2SO₂ + 2H₂O

Now we can use the stoichiometric ratio to <u>calculate the moles of oxygen </u>from the moles of sulfide dioxide:

  • 1.38 molSO₂ * \frac{3molO_{2}}{2molSO_{2}} = 2.07 mol O₂

Na+CL2=2NACL is the balanced reaction for the formation of table salt. Given 20 grams of Na and 10 grams of Cl2, which reactant
Elina [12.6K]

Excess reactant : Na

NaCl produced : = 16.497 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction(balanced)

2Na + Cl₂⇒ 2NaCl

20 g Na

10 g Cl₂

Required

Excess reactant

NaCl produced

Solution

mol Na(Ar = 23 g/mol) :

= 20 : 23 = 0.87

mol Cl₂(MW=71 g/mol):

= 10 : 71 g/mol = 0.141

mol : coefficient :

Na = 0.87 : 2 = 0.435

Cl₂ = 0.141 : 1 = 0.141

Limiting reactant : Cl₂(smaller ratio)

Excess reactant : Na

Mol NaCl based on mol Cl₂, so mol NaCl :

= 2/1 x mol Cl₂

= 2/1 x 0.141

= 0.282

Mass NaCl :

= 0.282 x 58.5 g/mol

= 16.497 g
