Answer:

Since this is an ionic compound, you must balance the charges so that overall charge of the compound is neutral. Sodium, an alkali metal, has a tendency to lose one electron. As a result sodium normally carries a positive one charge. Sulfur, a nonmetal, has a tendency to gain 2 electrons.

I

ion.

Explanation:

And thus the chemical formula for sodium sulfide is

Na2S , i.e. two sodium ions are required to form a neutral salt with

As a distant star moves away from earth, the light given off by the star has a
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

The wavelength of these photons will become longer. The energy of each of these photons will become lower.

Explanation:

<h3>Wavelength</h3>

Light can be considered as electromagnetic waves. The wavelength of a wave is equal to the minimum distance between two troughs (lowest points) in this wave. On the other hand, the frequency of a wave is equal to the number of wavelengths that this wave travels in unit time.

Assume that the speed of light stays the same. The distance that this beam of light travels in unit time will be the same. However, with a lower frequency, there would be fewer wavelengths in that same distance. Therefore, the size of each wavelength will become longer.

If c represent the speed of light and f represents the frequency, then the wavelength would be:

\displaystyle \lambda = \frac{c}{f}.

<h3>Energy</h3>

The energy E of each proton of a beam of light is proportional to the frequency f of the light. Let h denote Planck's Constant. The numerical relation between E\! and f\! would be:

E = h\, f.

Therefore, if the frequency f of this light becomes smaller, the energy E of each of its proton will also become proportionally lower.

How many molecules of liquid ethanol (CH3H2OH) are in 1.00 mL of ethanol, given its density is 0.789 g/mL?
Arisa [49]
To get the molecules contained in liquid ethanol, we multiply the density to the given volume, that is equal to 0.789 g ethanol. In this case, we divide by molar mass and multiply by the constant, Avogadro's number. The answer is 1.033 x 10^22 molecules.
