The distance from the star to the Earth

Explanation:

The absolute brightness of a star is a measure of the intrinsec luminosity of the star, i.e. it does not depend on the distance of the star from the Earth.

In other word, the absolute brightness is a measure of the luminosity of a star if all stars were placed at the same distance from Earth.

On the other hand, the relative brightness of a star is a measure of its luminosity as observed on Earth, therefore it does depend on the distance of the star from the Earth: the farther the star is, the more its luminosity will decrease, and vice-versa.

The star's absolute brightness, therefore, depends only on the characteristics of the star itself, namely:

- The absolute magnitude of the star

- The rate at which the star produces energy via nuclear fusion

- The rate at which the star releases energy via electromagnetic radiation

Therefore, the only factor that does NOT change if the absolute brightness of a star changes is

- The distance from the star to the Earth

Answer:

The formation of a meander. As the river erodes laterally, to the right side then the left side, it forms large bends, and then horseshoe-like loops called meanders . The formation of meanders is due to both deposition and erosion and meanders gradually migrate downstream.

an unknown amount of mercury (ii) oxide was decomposed in the lab. mercury metal was formed and 4.50 l of oxygen gas was release
Assoli18 [71]

The initial weight of mercury oxide in the sample was 59.1 g HgO.

<h3>Steps</h3>

chemical reaction

2HgO ⟶ 2Hg + O₂

the moles of O₂

pV = nRT

n = (pV)/(RT)

Data:

p = 0.970 atm

V = 4.50 L

R = 0.082 06 L·atm·K⁻¹mol⁻¹

T = 390.0 K

Calculation:

n = (0.970 × 4.500)/(0.082 06 × 390.0)

n = 0.1364 mol O₂

the moles of HgO

The molar ratio is 1 mol O₂/2 mol HgO.

Moles of HgO = 0.1364 mol O₂ × (2 mol Hg/1 mol O₂)

Moles of HgO = 0.2728 mol HgO

the mass of HgO

Mass of HgO = 0.2728 mol HgO × (216.59 g HgO/1 mol HgO)

Mass of HgO = 59.1 g HgO

<h3>What is the name of HgO?</h3>

For the creation of various organic mercury compounds and specific inorganic mercury salts, mercury(II) oxide, or HgO, serves as a source of elemental mercury.

This red or yellow crystalline substance is also utilised in mercury batteries and zinc-mercuric oxide electric cells as an electrode (combined with graphite).

<h3>What is the purpose of mercury oxide?</h3>

Mercuric oxide is a colourless, crystalline powder that ranges from yellow to orange-yellow.

It serves as a seed protectant, a pigment, a preservative, and an ingredient in alkaline batteries and cosmetics.

<h3>Is there a combination of mercury oxide?</h3>
  • The powder form of mercury oxide is dark black or dark brown.
  • An intimate blend of metallic mercury and mercuric oxide rather than a genuine compound.
