Answer:

3

Explanation:

Resonance is a valence bond concept put forward by Linus Pauling to explain the fact that the observed properties of a molecule may be as a result of the fact that its actual structure lie somewhere between a given number of structural extremes called canonical structures or resonance structures.

There are three resonance structures for SO3 that obey the octet rule. All the S-O bonds in SO3 are equivalent in these resonance structures.

Use the picture below to answer the question. What is true about the relationship between the wavelength and the frequency of th
KatRina [158]
The picture is not loading as it requires a sign in.
However, I can tell you how to solve this.

Answer:
<span>As the wavelength gets shorter (closer together), the frequency of the wave increases. 

Explanation:
The relation between frequency and wavelength can be described by the help of velocity as follows:
velocity = frequency * wavelength
This means that:
frequency = velocity / wavelength
Noting this equation, we will find that:
The frequency and the wavelength are inversely proportional to each other. This means that as the frequency increases, the wavelength decreases and vice versa.
Now, examining the choices given, we can find that the only statement showing the inverse relation between frequency and wavelength is:
</span><span>As the wavelength gets shorter (closer together), the frequency of the wave increases. 

Hope this helps :)

If a patient\'s blood pressure is 145 over 65 mmHg, what is it in atmospheres (atm)
kicyunya [14]

Converting mmHg to atm is solved by division.

Example: Convert 745.0 to atm.

Solution- divide the mmHg value by the 760.0 mmHg / atm.

745 mmHg over 760.0 mmHg/atm

atm value is 0.980263

Now, I am a medical student and we have never had to convert a BP (blood pressure) to atm from mmHg, only ever kPA. SO, I am going to take a guess here and say that when you do the work to solve this, you are going to convert the Systolic (upper #) which is the 145. You should get 0.190789 and then convert the Diastolic (lower #) which is 65. You should get 0.08552632.

So your fraction so to speak should read, 0.190789/0.08552632 or 0.190789 over 0.08552632

(Just to note that is way to low of a BP, although it is irrelevant) Best wishes and good luck. "Remember, never just look for the right answer, look for why it is the right answer!"
