The characteristics of wave are amplitude, speed , frequency and wavelength.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Amplitude is defined as the distance covered by the particles or molecules moving in a wave nature. So the maximum positive and negative peak position is termed as amplitude of the wave.

Every wave forms a series of crests and trough regions. The crest region is the positive amplitude while the trough region is the negative amplitude. The distance between two successive crests and troughs are termed as wavelength.

A single crest and trough forms a complete cycle. So the number of times a cycle is repeated for a given time is known as frequency. Speed is defined as the product of frequency and wavelength of the wave. In other words, speed of a wave is the rate at which the particles are moving a given area per unit time.

The standard enthalpy of formation (ΔHf°) of calcium carbonate is –1207 kJ/mol. Which ONE of the equations below has ΔH° = –1207
Art [367]

Answer:

A) Ca(s) + C(s) + 3/2 O₂(g) → CaCO₃(s)

Explanation:

Standard enthalpy of formation of a chemical is defined as the change in enthalpy durin the formation of 1 mole of the substance from its constituent elements in their standard states.

The consituent elements of calcium carbonate, CaCO₃, in their standard states (States you will find this pure elements in nature), are:

Ca(s), C(s) and O₂(g)

That means, the equation that represents standard enthalpy of CaCO₃ is:

<h3>A) Ca(s) + C(s) + 3/2 O₂(g) → CaCO₃(s)</h3><h3 />

<em>Is the equation that has ΔH° = -1207kJ/mol</em>

What do we need to learn about inclined planes
Troyanec [42]

Answer: Inclined plane, simple machine consisting of a sloping surface, used for raising heavy bodies. The force required to move an object up the incline is less than the weight being raised, discounting friction. The steeper the slope, or incline, the more nearly the required force approaches the actual weight.

What is rate of reaction? Discuss in brief slow and fast reactions.<br>​
Sindrei [870]
The reaction rate or rate of reaction is the speed at which a chemical reaction takes place, defined as proportional to the increase in the concentration of a product per unit time and to the decrease in the concentration of a reactant per unit time.

Reactions that happen quickly have a high rate of reaction. For example, the chemical weathering of rocks is a very slow reaction: it has a low rate of reaction. Explosions are very fast reactions: they have a high rate of reaction. Rate of reaction is an example of a compound measure.
