Covalent bonds. Silicon, carbon, germanium, and a few other elements form covalently bonded solids. In these elements there are four electrons in the outer sp-shell, which is half filled. ... In the covalent bond an atom shares one valence (outer-shell) electron with each of its four nearest neighbour atoms.
Answer:
Planets were like gods.
Explanation:
To the people of many ancient civilizations, the planets were thought to be deities. Our names for the planets are the Roman names for these deities. For example, Mars was the god of war and Venus the goddess of love.
Answer:
TO MEASURE THE ANGLES OF RAYS
Explanation:
1) Frequency: 
the energy of the photon absorbed must be equal to the ionization enegy of the atom, which is
The energy of a photon is given by
where 
is the Planck's constant. By using the energy written above and by re-arranging thsi formula, we can calculate the frequency of the photon:
2) Wavelength: 91.2 nm
The wavelength of the photon can be found from its frequency, by using the following relationship:
where 
is the speed of light and f is the frequency. Substituting the frequency, we find
Answer:
tympanic membrane (eardrum)
Explanation:
The sound waves spread through the air and reach the outer ear, into which they penetrate through the ear canal. In doing so, they stimulate the eardrum, which closes the inner end of the duct. By vibrating this membrane, the vibration of a chain of ossicles located in the middle ear is induced. These ossicles transmit their vibration to the oval window, which is a membranous structure that communicates the middle ear with the cochlea of the inner ear. When the oval membrane moves, it moves the liquid (perilymph) that fills one of the three cavities of the cochlea generating waves in it. These waves mechanically stimulate the sensory cells (hair cells) located in the organ of Corti, within the cochlea in the central cavity, the middle ramp. This cavity is filled with a liquid rich in K +, endolymph. The cells embedded in the endolymph, change their permeability to K + due to the movement of the cilia and respond by releasing a neurotransmitter that excites the nerve terminals, which initiate the auditory sensory pathway.
